| ""Ok guys, so here’s the thing: in the mid 50’s some obscure scientist called Murtaugh who experimented with Einstein’s theories, Electromagnetism, Particle Physics, stuff like that. Gathering with other people, he formed a tiny group (He an other 11 people)who investigated different dimensions. They experimented near kent, and Murtaugh often went for a walk near the Lighthouse, to clear up his mind. One day, while everyone was doing research, the guy went camping (While others worked, he justed took a walk. How fair), he slept near the waterfall of kent (If he had literally slept under it, it wouldn’t have been nice). So, anyway, the day after, he suffered an accident, under strange circumstances, and lost his arm. And after some week, he realized he had a karma arm, and that there was some sort of thing near the waterfall that gave it to him. So he and his friends conducted research, and decided that there was something underneath the Lighthouse and the Waterfall. They dug, but found nothing. Mur thought there was some sort of connection between those lost catacombs under the Lighthouse and the misterious thing they found-‘Karma Source’, if you will. So he spent all the time in the Lighthouse, trying to find the catacombs (My theory is that the digout inside the Lighthouse was dug by Mur trying to find the catacombs, and not when he tried to escape). One day, he discovered that his karma arm gave him the power to create portals. He discovered it one morning, when he had to go to the bathroom, but he was too tired. The moment after, he found himself in said bathroom."

That is insane. The entire submachine series has only about 10 pages of text in it ...
