Where does your mind go when it wanders? In Next Exit, that place is Alkaline, a world built on dreams and memories. Retrab and Markesh are trapped in Alkaline, and they're after what everybody
else is after: an exit. A map that Retrab wins in a chess game just might point the way to one, but she and Markesh must travel through Alkaline's bizarre cities and terrain in order to find
it. The two find themselves tangling with wacky dream logic, monsters, scantily-clad lady mayors and the sinister powers-that-be in Alkaline, all the while building a close friendship.
