Letâs Make a Deal
Synopsis: Let's go back a moment, how exactly did Adam end up joining the hotel? And how was the graveyard created? Lucifer makes a deal with Adam, but not for what Lucifer thought it would be.
Notes:
Iâm feeding you Papa Adam fans. This oneâs for you.
So⊠remember how I mentioned Lucifer catching Adam back in Distrust Fall?
As Adams getting dressed, heâs resolutely not processing the fact that he fell and more thinking over the events before he died. Which leads to him remembering the dead exorcists.
Hereâs how Adam fell: He broke the first commandment! âYou shall have no other gods before Meâ and in doing so landed earned Gods ire. Combining that with Sir Pentiousâ redemption, Adam was pulled from death and fell to hell.
Itâs so fucking funny to write this being used to Lucifer and Adam being on good terms because I have to step back and say, âOkay but now they fucking hate each other with an undertone of romantic tension and desperation and what ifs.â
Iâve had this idea FOR FUCKING AGES.
Word Count: 1640
Fic under cut!
Lucifer was falling.
Unsurprisingly, it hurt a lot less than last time, especially since he wasnât the one burning.
When Nifty mentioned a shooting star, his blood had frozen as he threw the window open to see the falling angel.
Hell never had stars to fall.
Heâd taken off from the hotel, shooting through the sky to try and catch the fallen, partially to keep Pentagram city from being destroyed by the force of the fall, but mostly to try and lessen the pain of the impact.
He didnât want another to fall like he had.
The burning agony magnified by the brimstoneâs crushing hug.
If nothing else, he could stop that.
The fallen morning star threw out his magic, forcing it against gravity as he twisted the two of them, so he was on top, spreading his wings to catch the air. He couldnât make out the details of the fallen angel under the blaze of hellfire, but it was definitely a man.
Disappointing, in another life it could have been Adam.
The king shut the thought down immediately, Adam was dead and for good reason, that wasnât something to even begin to address when there were bigger issues.
He was able to change their trajectory, bringing them closer to the land surrounding the hotel. It was still ruined after the battle, which made it a perfect crash-land site.
The landing, while not graceful, was definitely softer than it would have been otherwise. Lucifer shoved the man to the ground immediately, stepping back and using his magic to mend his own mostly wrecked clothing as the brimstone and volcanic rock devoured the unholy flames and completed the fall.
The first thing Lucifer could see was the wings, great broad things that should carry the angel well, yet the king only wanted to throw up staring at the left wing. It was in ruin, most of his secondaries and half his primaries were gone. The smell of burning feathers left Lucifer wanting to gag. What the fuck. What the fuck did this man do to deserve that.
His eyes drifted down towards the angels face, and suddenly Lucifer could guess what the angel did to deserve his fate.
His horns curled over his head in a hauntingly familiar way, the tips streaked with gold. Shards of horn dotted his cheeks and decorated the base of his horns. Ash grey hair that used to be brown so long ago. His skin colour reduced to monochrome grey that would have never hinted to once being tan. The angels hands were dipped in that same golden colour of his horns, Lucifer could laugh at the irony.
Of course, Adamâs hands would be coloured the same gold of the angels who died under his command. And of fucking course heâd somehow manage to find a way to cheat death.
Lucifer stepped back and narrowed his eyes into a sharp glare as Adam groaned and came to, watching his wings twitch in pain as he struggled into a kneeling position, he didnât see Lucifer yet, that much he was sure of.
The king just watched Adam catch his breath for a few moments before clearing his throat, grinning at the way Adam froze before scrambling to his feet. His wings moving despite the pain in an attempt to obscure Adamâs bare body.
âWhat the fuck.â
âWow, is that how you greet the person who just saved you?â
âFuck you!â
âCareful,â Lucifer bit out, his tail lashing behind him, âRemember whoâs realm your in.â
Surprisingly, Adam seemed to have enough braincells to realise that picking a fight with the literal king of hell after just having fallen wasnât the best idea and held his tongue for once.
Luciferâs eyes raked over Adamâs form, noting the way Adamâs feathers bristled as the kingâs eyes roamed. HuhâŠ
Oh.
âGet dressed, Being naked isnât exactly a good thing nowadays,â Lucifer summoned some clothes that should fit the first man and threw them at the fallen angel. Keeping him in his peripheral as the man quickly got dressed.
âAlright now get the fuck out of here, I canât have you around here when Charlie gets down here.â
âWait-â
âIâll even be kind and I wonât tell deer boy youâre traipsing around hell now! Heâs still angry about losing to you, good job by the way-â
âLucifer!â The seraphim turned back to Adam who was standing with his wings spread, chest heaving at using energy he didnât have for the outburst, âIâm not fucking leaving.â
âOh no you donât have a choice on the matter after what you did!â Lucifer snarled, wings flaring out in his own display to match Adams, âGet the fuck out of here before I make you.â
Adam froze up, his wings folding slightly under his hesitation which gave the king confidence. The first man was going to turn tail like the cowardly sack of shit he was. He turned around, satisfied that Adam wouldnât be a bother for at least a little while.
âHow about a deal.â
Lucifer paused before whipping around to stare at Adam, who stood his ground and held his head high despite the weight of his words.
âWhat.â
âYou fucking heard me; I know you fuckers like making deals. So, letâs make a deal.â
âOh, I heard you, but what could you possibly give me that I-â
âWhatever you want. Even my soul I donât give a fucking shit,â Adam spat, âWhatever it takes to get you to take this deal.â
Lucifer paused, shocked by the audacity but intrigued nonetheless, âAnd what exactly do you want? Protection? Supplies?â
It wouldnât matter anyway; not like he was actually considering the deal.
âI want you to help me bury my girls.â
âŠ
What?
âMy girls, the exorcists. I canât-â
Adams voice cracked.
Immediately the first man locked up, his jaw snapped shut with an audible sound and he looked every part horrified.
Surprisingly, it didnât stir any sense of satisfaction like he thought it would. Instead, Lucifer only felt a deep pit of dread.
Adam seemed to recover quickly, swallowing past whatever lump he had in his throat to continue, âI canât recover their bodies fast enough. Not like this. I can dig as many graves as I can, but I need you to gather their bodies. I need to lay them to rest⊠please.â
Lucifer was flabbergasted, after everything he had the audacity to ask Lucifer to help him with this. To help bury the same damn angels who hunted hells denizens, who hunted his daughter?! Framed as a deal or not why the fuck would he ever think-
What if it was Charlie.
Lucifer froze at the thought, that tiny part of him as old as Eden piping up to tear down the devils rage with ease.
Shit.
Lucifer closed his eyes and clenched his jaw, shit. He couldnât get the image out of his head. Charlies body broken and beaten like the corpses of the exorcists, Charlie-
Fuck. The angel of the Morningstar suppressed a flinch at the images.
ButâŠ
It wasnât just his nightmare scenario he was dealing with now. It was Adamâs reality.
âŠ
Damnit.
âYouâre going to go to the hotel and give redemption a good shot.â
âWhat?â
âThatâs my terms of the deal, if I do this, youâre going to walk into the hotel and work towards redemption. Iâm not going to own your soul; this is a one-time deal. Take it or leave it.â
Luciferâs hand glowed gold with his magic as he held it out, binding magic twisting through his fingertips.
Gold met gold, and the deal was done.
[----------------]
It took several hours to recover all the bodies.
Some of which was spent with Lucifer convincing the denizens of the hotel to stay inside, claiming that the fallen angel was a special brand of dangerous that only Lucifer could handle. He wasnât exactly wrong.
Including Adam, 48 exorcists died in the extermination. And almost none of them were intact when Lucifer found them.
Broken, half eaten, or worse, hell wasnât kind to the dead.
The corpses that were dragged back to Cannibal Town were the trickiest to acquire, the cannibals were never known to abandon their food and with them now be armed with angelic weapons⊠He needed to remind them who exactly was in charge to get them to surrender their meals.
He really needed to deal with the outbreak of the angelic weapons information. That was going to get a lot of attempts on his life.
With every corpse Lucifer teleported back to Adam, there was a sharp crackle of opposing magic, broken in itâs divinity but still potent.
That was going to be troublesome.
He should probably find a way to suppress Adams magic, untamed as it was now without heaven to temper it, it was going to be dangerous until his soul calmed down. However long that would be.
Lucifer sighed when he dropped the final body off at the hotel. Several of them were already gone and buried under blank gravestones, a last-minute addition of Luciferâs to the summary, itâd be up to Adam whether or not he wanted to add any information on who was buried.
Lucifer watched silently as Adam carefully removed the helmet of the final exorcist, resolutely not looking down even as his feathers shook with rage. The first man and third fallen gently lowered the body into the grave before going to grab the shovel. Once the burial was done, he placed the helmet gingerly on the soil, marking the graves identity in a way Lucifer would never be able to know.
Then the moment was over, and Adam stood up, turning to look at Lucifer with a stare that would scorch bone if it could.
âAlright letâs get this fucking over with.â

Two thousand years ago, a volcanic eruption buried an ancient library of papyrus scrolls now known as the Herculaneum Papyri. In the 18th century the scrolls were discovered. More than 800 of them are now stored in a library in Naples, Italy; these lumps of carbonized ash cannot be opened without severely damaging them. But how can we read them if they remain rolled up? On March 15th, 2023, Nat Friedman, Daniel Gross, and Brent Seales launched the Vesuvius Challenge to answer this question. Scrolls from the Institut de France were imaged at the Diamond Light Source particle accelerator near Oxford. We released these high-resolution CT scans of the scrolls, and we offered more than $1M in prizes, put forward by many generous donors. A global community of competitors and collaborators assembled to crack the problem with computer vision, machine learning, and hard work. Less than a year later, in December 2023, they succeeded. Finally, after 275 years, we can begin to read the scrolls. Grand Prizeâ There was one submission that stood out clearly from the rest. Working independently, each member of our team of papyrologists recovered more text from this submission than any other. Remarkably, the entry achieved the criteria we set when announcing the Vesuvius Challenge in March: 4 passages of 140 characters each, with at least 85% of characters recoverable. This was not a given: most of us on the organizing team assigned a less than 30% probability of success when we announced these criteria! And in addition, the submission includes another 11 (!) columns of text â more than 2000 characters total. The results of this review were clear and unanimous: the Vesuvius Challenge Grand Prize of $700,000 is awarded to a team of three for their excellent submission. Congratulations to Youssef Nader, Luke Farritor, and Julian Schilliger! Runners upâ Of the remaining submissions, the scores from our team of papyrologists identify a three-way tie for runner up. These entries show remarkably similar readability to each other, but still stand out from the rest by being significantly more readable. Congratulations to the following teams, each taking home $50,000! Shao-Qian Mah. GitHub Elian Rafael Dal PrĂĄ, Sean Johnson, Leonardo Scabini, RaĂ Fernando Dal PrĂĄ, JoĂŁo Vitor Brentigani Torezan, Daniel Baldin Franceschini, Bruno Pereira Kellm, Marcelo Soccol Gris, and Odemir Martinez Bruno. GitHub Louis Schlessinger and Arefeh Sherafati. GitHub
What does the scroll say?â To date, our efforts have managed to unroll and read about 5% of the first scroll. Our eminent team of papyrologists has been hard at work and has achieved a preliminary transcription of all the revealed columns. We now know that this scroll is not a duplicate of an existing work; it contains never-before-seen text from antiquity. The papyrology team are preparing to deliver a comprehensive study as soon as they can. You all gave them a lot of work to do! Initial readings already provide glimpses into this philosophical text. From our scholars: The general subject of the text is pleasure, which, properly understood, is the highest good in Epicurean philosophy. In these two snippets from two consecutive columns of the scroll, the author is concerned with whether and how the availability of goods, such as food, can affect the pleasure which they provide. Do things that are available in lesser quantities afford more pleasure than those available in abundance? Our author thinks not: âas too in the case of food, we do not right away believe things that are scarce to be absolutely more pleasant than those which are abundant.â However, is it easier for us naturally to do without things that are plentiful? âSuch questions will be considered frequently.â Since this is the end of a scroll, this phrasing may suggest that more is coming in subsequent books of the same work. At the beginning of the first text, a certain Xenophantos is mentioned, perhaps the same man â presumably a musician â also mentioned by Philodemus in his work On Music. Richard Janko writes: âIs the author Epicurus' follower, the philosopher and poet Philodemus, the teacher of Vergil? It seems very likely. Is he writing about the effect of music on the hearer, and comparing it to other pleasures like those of food and drink? Quite probably. Does this text come from his four-part treatise on music, of which we know Book 4? Quite possibly: the title should soon become available to read. Is the Xenophantus who is mentioned the celebrated flute-player, or the man famous in antiquity for being unable to control his laughter, or someone else entirely? So many questions! But improvements to the identification of the ink, which can be expected, will soon answer most of them. I can hardly wait.â Scholars might call it a philosophical treatise. But it seems familiar to us, and we canât escape the feeling that the first text weâve uncovered is a 2000-year-old blog post about how to enjoy life. Is Philodemus throwing shade at the stoics in his closing paragraph, asserting that stoicism is an incomplete philosophy because it has ânothing to say about pleasure?â The questions he seems to discuss â lifeâs pleasures and what makes life worth living â are still on our minds today. We can expect many more works from Philodemus in the current collection, once weâre able to scale up this technique. But there could be other text as well â an Aristotle dialog, a lost history of Livy, a lost Homeric epic work, a poem from Sappho â who knows what treasures are hidden in these lumps of ash.

Siempre sentĂ que mi facultad no era parte de CU.
AsĂ me pareciĂł desde mi primera visita, antes de ser estudiante ahĂ formalmente, hasta la Ășltima clase que cursĂ© para cubrir mis crĂ©ditos.
Me lo hacĂa sentir su color naranja y sus impolutos pasillos blancos con azul.
TambiĂ©n me lo hacĂa sentir esa improvisada entrada angosta que conectaba la facultad con el campus central, unas diminutas escaleras que parecĂan mĂĄs una salida secreta que una entrada.
Casi todos los alumnos entrĂĄbamos por ahĂ, o porque venĂamos caminando por Copilco o porque la parada del PumabĂșs estaba tambiĂ©n ahĂ.
Esa entrada tambiĂ©n era lo Ășnico reconocido de nuestra facultad, porque la gente iba a comer al cĂ©lebre y horrible Psicotaco.
Siempre me dio la sensaciĂłn de que la facultad le tenĂa miedo al campus de CU, por eso mejor darle la espalda, por eso mejor tener la entrada principal sobre Av Universidad, mirando para otro lado.
Qué mejor acto fallido que ese.
Ăramos un añadido, una protuberancia puesta en la esquina, con un rĂdiculo pasillo que hacĂa de entrada.
Hace ya varios años que se modificó esa entrada, pero, conservando y perpetuando el miedo, se hizo la entrada lo mås cerca a Insurgentes.
La vieja entrada salida se clausurĂł, con todo y el Psicotaco, y ahora los que van caminando tienen que casi rodear la facultad para entrar, no importando que la vieja entrada, con todas su fallas, tenĂa el sentido mĂĄs claro de la pertenencia y de la utilidad, porque esa entrada, al menos, estaba direccionada a ese pasillo lleno de vida que conecta la facultad de FilosofĂa con la Central, ese pasillo donde se venden libros, tacos de canasta, cafĂ©s, donde pasas al lado del Che, ese pasillo donde, a mis catorce años, en la visita que me hizo dar cuenta de que yo necesitaba estudiar ahĂ, comprĂ© piraterĂa alternativa, emocionado porque ese lugar parecĂa un tianguis y no una escuela, y todo CU en general me pareciĂł un parque y no una Universidad y yo solo pensaba ÂżaquĂ donde estudia la gente?, y yo sentĂ, que yo debĂa, si podĂa, si lo lograba, ser parte de aquello, por eso la escena que mĂĄs me gusta de GĂŒeros es cuando Santos, TomĂĄs y el Sombra, perdidos manejando por la ciudad, terminan regresando a CU, y cuando se disponen a ir a la asamblea, caminando por ese pasillo se encuentran a su camarada el Inciso B, y entre la alegrĂa del reencuentro, el Inciso les va contando como va la huelga. Eso es ese pasillo, el lugar donde te encontrabas a todo el mundo, el lugar donde esperĂ© varias veces a amigos, donde las esperĂ© a ellas, el lugar donde alguien me hizo un dibujo, donde siempre te encontrabas a un Inciso B que te contaba como iban las cosas y caminabas un poco, rumbo a clase, a la parada o a la biblioteca.
En mi primer dĂa de clases, no veĂa la hora para salir corriendo a ese pasillo para ir por un cafĂ©, para sentir que por fin estaba ahĂ y que ahora, yo tambiĂ©n, era uno de esos jovenes como los que me deslumbraron en mi adolescencia.
Pero mi facultad sĂ era parte de la universidad. Me lo hacĂan sentir esos ventanales a nuestra izquierda por donde se podĂa ver la Central y por donde cuando no habĂa contaminaciĂłn podĂamos ver a lo lejos los volcanes.
Esta vez que fui, en mi actividad favorita de volver a caminar por mis viejos trayectos, me encontré felizmente con una facultad completamente intervenida, con pintas de todos los colores y de todos los tonos en todas sus paredes, en todos sus pasillos y hasta en su explanada.
Las alumnas, porque siempre han sido mayorĂa las mujeres, afortunadamente no han necesitado una improvisada entrada salida para hacerse sentir parte de la universidad y de algo mucho mĂĄs grande. Mi vieja conservadora facultad, que alguna vez pintĂł el mismo suelo de color gris, luce por fin como debiĂł lucir siempre, como un lugar donde las estudiantes dicen, "me amo", "rompe el pacto", "aquĂ doliĂł, aquĂ sanĂł". Un lugar que no ignora la realidad, al contrario, la ve y quiere cambiarla.

Une longue Ă©tape. Un ciel gris. Au dĂ©part, une tempĂ©rature de Kiravi (12°) qui ravit pas vraiment. Kiravi ?

La Gaussturm sâappelle la Gaussturm en hommage Ă Gauss, le cĂ©lĂšbre physicien qui, petit, nâĂ©tait pas toujours propre (le fameux sale Gauss. Ha ha !). VoilĂ pour la page culture.

La vida que queria tener
Hoy escuchĂ© una canciĂłn que me hizo recordar la vida que solo vivĂ en mi mente, la vida que querĂa contigo a un lado de los volcanes, alejados de la ciudad y caminando por el campo, recordĂ© la canciĂłn que en su momento no le preste mucha atenciĂłn pero hoy que la vuelvo a escuchar me doy cuenta de pequeño hueco en mi corazĂłn, este hueco que hiciste no por abandono, si no con miedo. Te tengo miedo, tal vez no me golpeaste fĂsicamente pero si me volviste loca, temerosa y mĂĄs nerviosa, me dan ataques de ansiedad que vienen y van por el dĂa, divago en la vida que vivĂ en otro universo donde no tenĂas los fantasmas y demonios que terminaron por acabarme.
Recuerdo que amaba ese camino donde caĂa agua de los volcanes, las mariposas azules que tanto intente fotografiar, la canasta de flores que nunca viste pero que recogĂ pensando en ti, los planes que llegamos a hacer en esa casa, tu cuerpo junto el mĂo y el cĂłmo veĂamos el amanecer en esos campos de tejocotes y ahora ya no puedo regresar ni a esa pequeña cascada, ni ver al campo y ni percibir los volcanes, las mariposas se fueron y mis flores se marchitaron, los tejocotes seguirĂĄn floreciendo y seguirĂĄn esperando lo que les prometimos, esa casa nunca mĂĄs verĂĄ el amor que le tenĂa por quĂ© te lo tenĂa a ti.
Vi los ĂĄrboles a travĂ©s de la ventana de mi salĂłn, con la luz del atardecer cruzando por las hojas y no pude evitar acordarme de aquellos caminos naranjas que veĂamos con esos volcanes por detrĂĄs, Âżellos sabrĂan el presagio?
Te dije que si nos separĂĄbamos algĂșn dĂa regresarĂas a mi, con tus cosas y yo sola en una cabaña en los campos de tejocotes, a los 45 años o algo asĂ, te verĂa caminar por aquellos caminos arenosos y solo nos verĂamos sabiendo que esta vez no te irĂas, esos sueños ya pasaron y ya no los quiero y me duele aceptar que ya no lo quiero por quĂ© lo anhelaba con todo mi corazĂłn, juraba que tenĂamos una gran historia de amor pero con la gran perspectiva de los años y de los daños ahora veo que no, solo fue violencia, manipulaciĂłn y egoĂsmo, de ambos lamentablemente pero tĂș diste el tiro de gracia.
JODER! QuerĂa esa vida! QuerĂa los campos, las flores, los volcanes, el riachuelo, el bosque, las vacas, querĂa todo eso con todo mi jodido y perturbado corazĂłn, te querĂa a ti! Y ahora no puedo tocar esas tierras, no me gusta ni pensar en todo eso por que esa aura naranja del atardecer se ha convertido en un gris profundo

âThe best [Nahe Rieslings] are exquisitely tunedâŠâ â Ian Jamison, German Wines
When Ian Jamisonâs German Wines came out in 1990, MĂŒller-Thurgau was still the dominant variety in the Nahe, with 23.2% of the vineyard area. Riesling was in second place at 12% (his figures were from 1988), and unless youâve been following Nahe wines long enough to observe this evolution, itâs a shocking statistic given the number of benchmark Riesling producers clustered here today. These include Dönnhoff, SchĂ€fer-Fröhlich, Schlossgut Diel, Emrich-Schönleber, and Gut Hermannsberg, all first-rate VDP estates whose GG Rieslings Iâll often rate among the best in Wiesbaden each August. Riesling is now in the first position in the Nahe, and rightly so. Jamison writes, âIt is perfectly possible to persuade yourself that the River Nahe produces the finest Riesling wines in the Rheinland and, therefore, in the world.â For this taster, no further persuasion is necessary.
The Nahe became an independent wine region in 1971. Before that, wines from the river Nahe were labeled simply as Rhein wines, and, as Frank Schoonmaker writes in The Wines of Germany, âAll Nahe wines, being more akin to Rhine than to Mosel, are shipped in brown bottles.â Itâs essential to clarify that Nahe wines are, stylistically speaking, not some halfway point between Mosel and Rheingau or Rheinhessen. The wine trade (me included) has repeated this almost as frequently as âGigondas is like a baby ChĂąteauneuf-du-Pape!â Hey, when a sale is on the line, I get it, but thereâs no reason to âsellâ Nahe wines this way, not when theyâre some of the finest in Germany. There is indeed Riesling from steep slate slopes in the Nahe, and like the Mosel, Nahe producers can make stunning PrĂ€dikatswein, but Nahe wines do not smell or taste like Mosel, or Rheingau, or Rheinhessen. Nahe is unique, and much of its uniqueness comes from the soil.
The Nahe has the widest variety of soils in Germany due to 400 million years of geological upheaval. Schist, volcanic, loess, clay, and limestone are some of the 180 or so assumed soil types within the Nahe wine region. Britta Korrell of Weingut Korrell in Bosenheim told me the Nahe gained the nickname das Probiertstubâchen (the tasting room of Germany) because they have so many different soils, varieties, and microclimates. Protected from the cold winds by the high HĂŒnsruck mountains, mild temperatures, much sunshine, and very little rain create an excellent climate for the vine. Although administratively, a single Bereich (Nahetal) covers the entire Weinanbaugebiet. Practically speaking, there are three subdivisions of the Nahe region and its 116-kilometer river: lower, middle, and upper. Generally, the Upper Nahe vineyards are cooler, while the Middle and Lower Nahe get progressively warmer, and harvest occurs earlier in Lower Nahe than in the Middle or Upper.
Lower Nahe
Beginning at Bingen, where the Nahe joins the Rhein, to Bad Kreuznach is the Lower Nahe. Directly across the Rhein from Bingen is the Rheingauâs RĂŒdesheimer Berg. Upriver, several famous wine villages are found, starting with MĂŒnster-Sarmsheim (home of the excellent VDP.Weingut Kruger-Rumpf) and RĂŒmmelsheim/Burg Layen (home of Diel). Thereâs grey Devonian slate at MĂŒnster-Sarmsheimer Im Pitterberg, then loam, clay, and gravel at a trio of superb Grosse Lage sites in Burg Layen (technically belonging to Dorsheim): PittermĂ€nnchen, Goldloch, and Burgberg. The next grouping of Grosse Lagen in the Lower Nahe is at Bad Kreuznach, Naheâs commercial center. Kahlenberg and Krötenpfuhl (produced by Dönnhoff) feature loam, loess, and gravel, and off to a side valley in Wallhausen, Felseneck (Prinz Salm) has green schist. By the way, Bad Kreuznach is also home to Weingut Korrell (Bosenheim) and their excellent Paradies vineyard with shell limestone and marl. A final note about the charming spa town of Bad Kreuznach is to mention the Anheuser name; the same Anheuser family (cousins) as St Louisâ Anheuser-Busch are wine producers here.
Middle Nahe
Five kilometers upriver from Bad Kreuznach are Bad MĂŒnster and Traisen, where massive porphyry rocks are both a tourist attraction and a gate to the Middle Nahe. The steep and volcanic Traisner Bastei is the first significant site, then Rotenfels, then MĂŒhlberg and Steinberg (both produced by VDP.Weingut Dr. Crusius), before slate sets in at Norheimer Kirscheck and Dellchen. Neighboring VDP estates Dönnhoff and Gut Hermannsberg exploit the vineyards at Niederhausen and Oberhausen. Grey slate and limestone make Hermannshöhle one of the most highly reputed sites in the Nahe, while SchloĂböckelheimer Felsenberg and Kupfergrube did not even exist before they were created by the State Domain (with the help of convict labor) in 1901. These volcanic sites and the top-class Oberhausen BrĂŒcke are some of Germanyâs best.
Upper Nahe
After SchloĂböckelheim, Iâll point out Königsfels and In den Felsen, which make their way into Korrellâs Von den Ersten Lagen bottling along with the previously mentioned Rotenfels and Felsenberg. At Bockenau (SchĂ€fer-Fröhlich) and Monzingen (Emrich-Schönleber) are Felseneck with Devonian slate and Monzingener FrĂŒhlingsplĂ€tzchen with red slate. These are the coolest vineyards in the Nahe and arguably some of the best. The Nahe wine region ends at the wine village of Martinstein.

Mauritia, una nueva AtlĂĄntida bajo el OcĂ©ano Ăndico
Investigadores especialistas en geologĂa hallan restos del continente Mauritia bajo las profundas aguas de la Isla Mauricio, en el OcĂ©ano Ăndico. Se trata de una gran parte del antiguo y desintegrado macro continente Gondwana, existente hace 200 millones de años.
Lewis Ashwal, geĂłlogo de la Universidad de Witwandersrand de Johannesburgo, SudĂĄfrica; Trond Torsvik de la Universidad de Oslo en Noruega, y Michel Wiedenbeck del Centro de InvestigaciĂłn de Geociencias de Alemania, han liderado los estudios entorno al misterioso descubrimiento.
Un mineral Ășnico en la zona
Los cientĂficos han hallado pedazos de lo que pareciera ser un mineral llamado zircĂłn, compuesto de silicato de circonio, de color gris, verde, rojo o incoloro, con brillo diamantino, y con una gran dureza y peso. Hasta ahora se calcula que dicho mineral tiene unos 3.000 millones de años de antigĂŒedad. Y aunque el resto de los minerales de la paradisĂaca isla no pasan de los 10 millones de años, los zircones estĂĄn allĂ y es debido a otro fenĂłmeno de la naturaleza. El misterioso hecho geolĂłgico se debe a que la lava de las continuas erupciones de los volcanes tĂpicos de algunas islas de la zona, cubriĂł los restos del ânuevoâ pero prehistĂłrico y pequeño continente Mauritia. Un trozo de su corteza se desprendiĂł del bloque continental Gondwana, sĂșper continente antes de la particiĂłn en dos de la Pangea, actualmente Ăfrica, AmĂ©rica del Sur, India, Australia y la AntĂĄrtida.
La teorĂa de placas tectĂłnicas
El mineral hallado, zircĂłn, es una roca Ăgnea volcĂĄnica al que se le calculan unos 6 millones de años, dĂĄndole una mayor validez cientĂfica a los estudios previos sobre el pequeño continente perdido, segĂșn la teorĂa del desplazamiento de placas que conforman la corteza terrestre y las tectĂłnicas de placas. Debido a la compleja separaciĂłn que sufriĂł el macro continente Gondwana, dividido ahora en 5 partes, las investigaciones aseguran que es posible que se hayan desprendido pequeños pedazos, a los que llaman âastillas continentalesâ, y que estos hayan caĂdo en el OcĂ©ano Ăndico, por lo que este contiene un poco mĂĄs de Mauritia de lo que ya se ha conseguido.
