A downloadable location zine

Above the trees off Queen's Road, enormous planets spin gracefully across the sky. Follow them to find the Orrery Folly, a thirty-foot-tall replica of a lost orrery. Step inside for a Martian Temperance Mint Julep, admire the museum of architectural models, and maybe take a Venusian Karate class. Or is there something more to this eccentric roadside attraction than meets the eye...?

This PDF is a single-page brochure advertising the Orrery Folly, and it unfolds to reveal random tables of motives you might have to coming to this place, characters you might meet, and the sorts of things that might happen while you're there.

I wrote this for the Pocket Places Jam 2021, so it's not written with any system or setting in mind--though it will fit most neatly into a setting adjacent to 20th century Americana.

(I'm uploading this now to meet the jam deadline, but I'm not quite content yet so will probably revise it in the near future)
