Falkirk Portal

**This page is too short considering the significance of the topic and the quantity of information available.**

The Falkirk Portal is an incredibly important portal connecting the Scottish town of Falkirk on Earth to either a spot on MAC C near The PC Guy Empire, or a black hole, depending on the state of the portal. It is one of the most important locations in the Adventure Series, and it appears in many adventures.

   The portal can be closed by setting the light to red, which makes the portal lead from Earth to a black hole, killing all who enter. The portal can be opened by setting the light to green, which makes the portal lead to MAC C. After a while, on either setting, the portal light gets automatically set to flashing, which means that both outcomes are possible.

The portal is confirmed to have been created over a millennium ago, causing the Mass Extinction Event when the native lifeforms of MAC C were driven extinct by Terran lifeforms. The Mac Guys were additionally released to MAC C through the portal. The portal was mainly seen as useless by the PC Guys, due to PC Guy3531's Earthen adventures. Therefore, the only way to access the Empire from Earth before TQTDTME 2 was The Field.

The MAC C side of the portal is in the mountain range known as the Sunrise Mountains, north to northeast of the PC Guy Empire. A path goes south from the portal to the Empire, with a path to the Robbie Rotten Fortress splitting off the path relatively early on. The path between the portal and the Empire is about 120 kilometres in length as the crow flies.

## History

Upon its original discovery, humans ventured through the portal, only to encounter an unexpected and deadly outcome, the portal was in its default state of having a 50% chance of diverting passers to Recycle Bin R, the black hole at the centre of System S. This random nature of the portal, deviating from its expected mechanics, led to a mysterious disappearance of those who entered. The medieval Scots, interpreting these baffling occurrences as acts of witchcraft or magic, opted to permanently seal off The Falkirk Portal.

Over millennium later, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, founders of Apple and creators of the Mac Guys, took a calculated risk and dispatched their newly created beings through the portal. Armed with comprehensive knowledge about the portal's mechanisms, they were the only humans at the time who fully understood its operations, and could switch the portal to reliably send every passer to Sunrise Mountains. However, subsequent attempts by curious unwanted onlookers to traverse the portal resulted in dismal outcomes. All but one found themselves either inadvertently redirected to Recycle Bin R or met unfortunate fates in the untamed expanses of the Sunrise Mountains, succumbing to the perils of the wilderness before they could retrace their steps. This series of events prompted the Scottish Government to enact legal measures, sealing off and blacking out any public knowledge or access to the portal area to mitigate liability and unwarranted attention. The Mac Guys, as a precautionary measure, erected the Border Fence for protection, despite its technical redundancy.

Angus emerged as the sole human who successfully followed the Mac Guys through the portal and returned unscathed. His survival hinged on his ability to hack into the portal's system, switching the portal to reliably send him back to Earth and evading the perils of Recycle Bin R. Additionally, Angus employed his inventive prowess to unravel the intricacies of the portal's functioning and subsequently developed the knowledge to construct portals on his own, a skill that he implemented to create portals of his own around two lears later in his basement.

## Use in human colonization of MAC C

After King PC Guy refuses to grant Winston Wallace his promised seat on the council of the Second PC Guy Empire, Wallace goes to the British government and alerts them to the existence of MAC C. Eventually, Elon Musk leaks this knowledge to the wider public and the colonization of MAC C begins.

The city of New Falkirk, the largest city on MAC C, will be founded around the far side of the portal. It will be a part of the Second PC Guy Empire.

## Conception (grey timeline)

The Falkirk Portal was conceived of for The Adventure to Destroy the Empire of the PC Guys, an adventure by Mac Guy3135. It has since become a staple of the Adventure Series, being used in every adventure after it on the timeline.
