The Spiral

The Spiral is a surreal location that is meant to be one of the most important structures for the planet caerulElimo. The entirety of Chapters 8-5 and 8-6 of the main caerulElimo Campaign take place in this location.

The Spiral is meant as a home to store all ideas, thoughts, and memories that take place on the planet. While The Spiral visually seems to appear at the declared capitol of the planet, extending into the sky and eventually fading away as the tip reaches outer space, its physical location is inside the core of the planet. A portal in caerulElimo must be used in order to enter The Spiral. Both of the entrance and exit portals in The Spiral are conveniently located very close to each other. However, the portal for leaving The Spiral is destroyed during the events of the Campaign.

History
Inspira's mother and father both contributed to creating The Spiral. It is one of the first structures that was ever created on the planet. Only a trickle of information was stored at The Spiral when it was first created. However, The Spiral would serve to be the "museum" for all creativity born on the planet for the foreseeable future. In fact, The Spiral would serve as the power source for the planet. If The Spiral were ever to be corrupted or destroyed, it would drastically change the planet for the worse. When Inspira herself became the leader of the planet, she also gained control of managing The Spiral. Some parts of The Spiral were influenced by her, such as the colorful bridges and bright walkways that visitors walk along. The content within The Spiral became more diverse and expansive over time, as the planet evolved over time. However, when the Novas invaded caerulElimo, they also formed their new home within The Spiral. This resulted in The Spiral becoming red, dark and gloomy. The Spiral was doomed for destruction as the Novas planned to take over the planet. The Spiral would soon become a home for only thoughts and ideas created by Novas.

Locations
Here is a list of locations within The Spiral.

Ascension
This area, originally meant as a grand showcase of thoughts and ideas within caerulElimo, was corrupted by the Novas. Now, Nova enemies will be attacking the heroes from the sidelines as they slowly but surely climb up The Spiral. Enemies may touch down on the platforms the heroes walk along as well. The path splits up several times, allowing the heroes to go their own ways while they venture upward while in this area.

Final Exam
This area, originally meant to categorize important ideas for caerulElimo into each of the eight regions, was corrupted by the Novas. Now, the area has drastically changed into a dangerous obstacle course that is meant to provide the heroes with one final series of challenges before facing the Novas themselves.

Cloud Circles
The heroes will need to platform on soft, circling clouds as they go higher and higher.

The heroes will need to platform across large ice cubes and fight on ice cube trays. A few meteors will be raining down from above due to a volcano eruption.

Balance Tubes
The heroes will need to balance on glass tubes above boiling hot lava.

Sinkhole
The heroes will need to fight enemies while on a giant sinkhole. The heroes will need to be careful they do not fall into the sinkhole in the center of the area.

Cheese Grater
The heroes will need to reach one end of a giant circular structure to the other end. Cylindrical pieces of cheese will slowly descend from holes on the top to holes on the bottom. These pieces of cheese never stop moving and continuously respawn above.

Star Swingers
The heroes will need to bring five colorful orbs to their correct holding locations. There are five large circular platforms, and the heroes can use vines to swing from one platform to another. Enemies will be appearing to try and stop the heroes.
