Existing on the edge of known Skytopian air space, Olio is a lonely outpost populated by a grim and serious people who have seen their share of troubles. Many Skyrates, looking out into that expanse of infinite nothingness to the east, jump into their planes and fly out searching for something out there in the never ending Blue. The few pilots who return tend to babble about sky and water, and about the sound of distant music.
