„Auuuugh, aaaug, aaaaaaaaaaatchmilaaaaaaa“
„Well, I get used to it. You know, I don´t ask too many questions, but why are you reapeating that howl time and again? Kind of a prayer?”
“Prayers are for people who believe in old men with beards.
Gleimbart would be pleased to be one of the bearded men people believe in.”
“That crap about the City of the Sun?”
“That´s no crap. It does exist.”
“You´re telling me that we´ve been trampling to death masses of tiny tiny people, as we were marching through it?”
“Gleimbart would be pleased to hear that.
No. Gleimbart himself built the City of the Sun. Surely there will be some little creatures wizzing around.
He shows up inbetween days, when you don´t expect it, worrying you about every step you take. And if you want to prove it, he claims that looking over it would already e n d a n g e r the city and its habitants. Could all cave in, like that, you know.
“And the city, it´s everywhere, underneath of everything here?”
“No. It seems, Gleimbart is installing it in changing places, in his head.”
“You said the city would exist.”
“Well, it´s not that easy over here.”
Silence
”So?”
“I´ve seen the city, at least a version of it, for a glimpse.
Could have been a visual illusion too, or an acoustic one.
For a sec I was only hearing it, then could take a look at it.
Gleimbart wrenched at my arm for no reason, just because I wanted to go there straight away.”
“I thought I thought the city is like little and under the snow?”
“I saw it at what you could call Gleimbart´s place. With no snow on top, through an immense objective and a speaker, well, didn´t sound that near, though.
Everything just went fast.
I looked through it, in a direction the eye could not really identify, towards the ground, in a distance. But we were on a hill, and I immediately turned around to him and said:
´Oaah, I gotta go there.´
As I turned over again for a second look, he came from behind, took me by the shoulders, and shouted at me:
´Hello, ma´m, anyone home. All along, you see something, you have to have it have it have it have it. – That´s it for today, out of here, right away!´.
I tell you, he´s crazy as fuck.
Game over with the city of the sun.
I went out in search for, for a while, in that direction, but that´s a vast area, then it started snowing again, and I didn´t want to step on it and destroy it. In the end I said to myself: Fuck that city! Fuck Gleimbart! Fuck all the drivel. Each time a different direction where the city ´claims our attention and regard´, fuck!
I´ll tell you the greatest thing about it:
Gleimbart himself, he doesn´t exist at all.”
“My ass!”
“Kissin´it yourself!
Maybe he is a r e a l l y good actor named Rambozo Hockleweed or he is the drink I gave you, or so or so or so.”
“Katy, that´s too much for me.”
“Never mind. You won´t see him another time.
Where we go people like him are not admitted.
And the drinks, t h e s e drinks, you won´t find´em there either.
They got the real ones.”

“Woe!
So, where´s Eloise?”
“Somewhere meditating, I guess.”
