The Compass
High above the central plains, hidden in the misty mountains,
lies the Compass Gate...
A monolithic compass standing within a vast void of spires. A pyramid the color of the distant fog floats above the center.
It exudes a mysterious atmosphere that keeps one thinking: Is there more to this place I just don't understand...?
You can enter the floating pyramid and hang out in its red interior, but there is otherwise nothing remarkable about it.
A good replacement for the default Homespace, which makes sense considering it was the original V-Chat homespace back in V-Chat 1.1!

Additional Notes/Information
There is a piece of abstract art roughly in the middle of the Compass, its texture files listed as MIRO1 through MIRO4, named after the abstract artist Joan Miro. It is as of yet unkown if it is based on a specific Miro piece, or just inspired by the style.
