The Trench

The Trench is considered one of the Deepest places in the Lorbyverse. The Trench is considered an extremely dangerous place, where only iconic legends such as Mikhail Zeegurke, Dr. Phil, and Slardar have a chance at traversing the Trench Floor without an S Rank Submarine. There was a time where the Trench was not as perilous, though this was horribly disrupted after several devastating events, including the Burger Heresy, Salarmo's Mountain Doo exploits, and Lorby's Claw Strike.

## Origin

It is unknown exactly how the Trench was made. It is hypothesized that Lorby had cracked a hole in reality to rest his supermassive giant body. However, the Trench is seemingly vacant, considering its seemingly-infinite depth. Some say Lorby has left his resting home, and is patroling the Outer Reaches, awakened to some Unknown Threat. Some say it's simply a metaphorical "home", where Lorby's influence is most powerful, like Mount Olympus for the Greek Gods.

A stone collected from the bottom of the Trench was studied by the Dr. Phil Show's corporate cousin, BigThink Inc. They discovered that the stone was older than a stone from the Marianas Trench by 6.9 billion years. - over 2 billion years before Earth was formed. This implies Lorby cracked this Galactic hole before the solar system formed.

### The Trench Exodus

After the mass slaughter of trillions of Hoppites by the Burger King, the Exiled traveled into the deepest reaches of space to escape the reign of the Burger. Lorby's mighty claw raised through the Rift, and waved the refugees into the Trench, which was sanctuary to the Dinerkind. It was known that Burgerians that hated the King joined the Pancake folk, and decided to unite the meals in one specific type of restaraunt, when humans are "in the Trenches" of their lives. This tale is the reason that despite the feud between Denny's and IHOP, that they retain honor and respect between one another.

After DNY waged the Burgerian Jihad, and the Interoceanic House of Pancakes waged their Crystal Pepsi Crusade, two major political spheres came into the Trench: The Ranch Davidians and the IHOPes. With the loss of their beloved King Flapjack, the question became who was to take rule of the Diners - The Rancher of Denny's, or the Lord of the House.

## The War of the Trench

The Trench War started after the death of the Denny's Heroic Fighters, Gurdus and Dijay, sons of Honkules Hill. They had turned their backs on their father's wishes for them to become Pancake Paladins, instead listening to Rock n' Roll and Hip Hop at the Denny's diners instead to IHOP. They died of poisoning, but they cried out the culprit's name - "FUCK YOU DAD, THE KING OF THE HILL KILLED US!".

Because these two fought the Big Goblin in the 1992 dimension (Under Full control of Denny's now), the Jihadis waged war against the IHOP in the Trench for nearly 2 billion years. They made the Trench so horrific, so desolate, so grim, that Lorby cast an eternal shadow on the Trench, and cast Humanity not only from the Trench, but nearly all of the Lorbyverse, save for a recently-formed system that we find our Planet Earth in.

### Conclusion

However, the spirit of the Diner, the pervasive looming threat of the cheeseburger dimension, Lorby's claw in every pie, and general Human persistence, the feud still goes on, even in the mundanemost section of reality.
