The Multiverse: Difference between revisions

Line 96:
*** [[Word of God]] says the Woods between the Worlds was a part of Aslan's country. Which makes it kinda creepy when you realize that according to ''The Magician's Nephew'' {{spoiler|''we on Earth'' emigrated through it after we came to Earth after destroying our former world.}}
* The [[Discworld]] novels often allude to a multiverse. Since all libraries, everywhere, in every space, universe and time are connected, you can reach this L-space in the Library of Unseen University. If the Librarian lets you in, of course.
** Also, in ''[[The Colour of Magic]]'', Rincewind and Twoflower briefly find themselves occupying/incarnated in/deluded into thinking they are alternate universe versions of themselves, sitting next to each other on an airplane in a world that appears to be our normal Earth.
** Our Earth plays a greater role in the ''[[The Science of Discworld]]'' series, where the wizards know it as "Roundworld".
** Moreover, the existence of alternate worlds (i.e. different legs of the Trousers of Time) is a given in several [[Discworld]] novels. Granny Weatherwax starts picking up random memories from these alternate worlds in ''[[Lords and Ladies]]'', and Sam Vimes accidentally ''swaps P.D.A.s'' with his {{spoiler|ill-fated}} counterpart from an alternate world in ''[[Jingo]]''.
** Also in ''Lords and Ladies'' Ponder Stibbons (a wizard version of a physicist) tries to explain the "many worlds'' principle to the Archchancellor (chief Wizard). Of course this goes badly as the Archchancellor is mainly concerned about why his trousers have anything to do with it, and why his parallel self never sent him a wedding invite...
* Introduced as the Whole Sort of General Mish-Mash in the fifth part of the ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]'' trilogy.
