I feel as though I should push back against merging this page into N-Space. It's stated in Our Finest Gifts We Bring [+]Loading...["Our Finest Gifts We Bring (short story)"] that Third Universe is an incorrect name, though feel free to disagree. The direct quote is: "Once upon a time, there was a universe, which some called the Third Universe and others called Registered Universe 22305678412, but they were all wrong and it was actually called Gerald".
