All-in-one Wells – Austin Bunton Designs

Inisfreeans do not build or use the kinds of stairwells one will find in the Outlands. Instead, each stairwell in Inisfree comes with a variety of travel options, such as ladders, ropes, and slides.

Introduction:

You’ve heard of stairwells. Well, here in Inisfree, we have more than just stairs in ours; we have elevators, ladders, ropes, slides, and even zip-lines. Thus their name; All-in-one Wells, abbreviated as AIOW. Every building in our realm has AIOWs, not stairwells. Even our skyscrapers do, as do many/most of our homes.

Access Points:

Inisfreeans also do not build or use the kinds of doors one will find in the Outlands. Instead, Inisfreean doors are usually cylinders inside thicker walls, and to open and move through these doors, one must pull their top handle down, rotating the cylinder in its wall housing, thereby aligning its opening with the ground, at which point the person can walk into it. As they walk through it, its L-shaped passageway will move around them; the opening through which they entered rising up behind them as the door (cylinder) rotates around them while they approach its center. As they approach the far-end of this cylinder-shaped door, the exit moves down in front of them, opening to allow them free passage. The key concept with this is that Inisfreean doors (cylinders with walkways inside them) are counter-balanced to ensure that only fit, strong people can open them, and that only people in the desired weight range can pass through them with ease. Anyone who is malnourished will become strong by straining and exercising to operate these doors, and anyone who is overweight would have to slim down and tone up, lest they be stuck in the narrow passageways inside these cylinders (although, of course, no one who is out of shape will ever be allowed within 1,000 miles of this city).

Dimensions & Layout:

The size of these AIOWs varies based on their parent structure; apartments and small houses will have AIOWs just big enough for one or two people to travel through at a time, while office buildings, skyscrapers, hangars, giant Spaceships, and man-made caverns will have AIOWs with plenty of room for dozens or even hundreds of human-sized people to use at the same time.

AIOWs have a spiral staircase along their inner walls, and this is arranged around a central pit. In this open-air center are the ladders, ropes, and other means of travel up and down through the AIOW. To enter or exit an AIOW at any level, one will either be going through the aforementioned L-shaped tunnel-doors, or through the ‘smart’ double doors (Star Trek style) which sense people coming and slide open and closed for them.

Each AIOW includes at least one of all of the following:

belaying system (with pulley)
elevator (a.k.a. ‘lift’)
jungle-gym (a.k.a. ‘monkey bars’)
ladder
mooring line (as a climbing-rope)
open-air shaft
rope
slide (often water-assisted)
staircase (spiral; around the inner perimeter of the AIOW)
zip-line

Staff:

The larger/taller AIOWs in our realm always have 1 Inisfreean (ICV) on duty in them, keeping an eye out in case anyone loses his/her footing.

As always, these girls are “full use”, so don’t be shy about walking right up and asking for what you want with them.

Sometimes there is also a kajira or two at work in or just outside our larger AIOWs; they are there to offer a fresh bath towel to help people dry off if they use an AIOW’s waterslide –and these girls will do the towel-patting for you, so you won’t even have to hold your own towel. Like the ICVs, they are also, of course, “full use”.
