OOC: Vain repetition at this point:
The problem is that the new owners of the Abyss houses can make their houses private, can choose not to install teleporters, may not even have a second location for the other side of the teleporter, may quit the game, may demolish the houses, may die.
Putting up new Abyss houses means that in the future, we will need Mesanna to, repeatedly, run auctions as Abyss houses fail.
It would be better to have a permanent solution for Abyss access. Here are some suggestions:
o A few spots in the Abyss that are markable / recallable.
o A few spots in the Abyss that have permanent gates or teleporters. How about putting the other ends in spots of the big Ter Mur Royal City palace? or in the new Britain area that is presently not a better meeting place than Luna?
o An equivalent to the Eodon crystal or the Ilsh'nar jawbone, for the Abyss?
Not a solution:
o Abyss houses. Covered above.
o "Tell them to walk." That worked pretty well originally -- but since then, one side has had a horde of hellhounds added and the other side a flock of outcast gargoyles. It's pretty hard to walk through those things.
