Allia Fallanx is presently the fourth
Custodian of the Boulder Orchard, the generally recognised geographical
epicentre of the Violent Unknown Event. The Boulder Orchard's first permanent
Custodian was H. E. Carter, painter, film-maker, banjo-player, hydronomist and
indexer. The second Custodian was Rapper Begol, photographer, embryologist,
saxophonist, fire-watcher and writer of Egg-Tales. The third Custodian was
Catuso Phelpis, singer and ornithological registar.
Allia Fallanx, as pianist, ornithologist, cataloguer,
apiarist and
expert on flying
reptiles, perpetuated and expanded the Custodian tradition. However, the
publication of personal biographical details of VUE Commission employees is
forbidden. This embargo does not, as yet, extend to their families, so it is
possible to consider the VUE history of Allia's wife, Starling
Fallanx.
