Because "birther" implies you are literally a baby factory. Not many women would voluntarily choose to make giving birth their full time job, even among people who *want* kids

What is wrong with Birthing duty. That is a pretty big job when it comes to rebuilding civilization. That said, these are college kids and thinking of becoming parents probably not high on the to do list even in a story. Well done commies!

Could be that via the river they have avtually left Carousel. Carousel is a multi layered entity after all, it makes the stories near itself very strongly fit the Carousel theme but the ones outside of the town itself have looser chains

It makes you wonder what kind of place carousel was before it was gameified.

Tiziana Tabone

"I found it a bit amusing that the reason this colony of survivors didn’t know about the surrounding world was that they had so many falsified records that they no longer knew what was true. Where did Carousel find a world like that?" *Cries inside* Well done, oh ye author. Well done.

I think its interesting that Carousel's branding is slipping. Before they triggered "Breathing Deeply" the banner called the lake "Rogers Basin" and now we have a place ripe for renaming, but its called "Culver's Bay" instead of "Carousel Bay". This is a far cry from the time it made Riley the "Carousel World Poker Champion" and apperently renamed an entire planet. Personally, I prefer this, it makes the settings feel more distinct. I assume this is a side effect of the stories not being fully polished yet, but it could also be part of Carousel's recent policy of increased autonomy.
