History
Boosthaven started as a modest departure shed for little cars that kept returning from unexpectedly distant journeys. Its keepers built larger supply cupboards instead of a larger gate, believing good preparation mattered more than an impressive entrance.
Economy
The haven outfits travelers with compact tool rolls, route cards, and replaceable power packs. Mechanics rent equipment to infrequent travelers, while a return-and-refill service keeps packaging and spare parts circulating through the port.
Rainbow Road IAS
Joined in Show Year 7 · The Ready-to-Go Fair. The Pocket Provisioning Show joined the tour when its quartermasters packed a full roadside workshop into one small convoy trailer.
A fictional calendar kept by the Rainbow Road IAS. Year 1 begins with the first passage through the sandcastle on the beach in 1999; years count completed journeys inside its pocket of eternity, not elapsed Earth years. Local seasons identify each world’s first gathering. These histories belong to Leonida Larry’s imagined multiverse.

A moment on the road
“Check the tiny toolbox before we choose a giant destination. Boosthaven respects a sensible departure.”
In this galaxy · The joy we keep
Twuck takes a miniature orange track through a passage too small for the convoy. His return reminds the travelers that play can discover something serious planning missed.
Twuck disappears beneath a streamer and reappears at the head of a tiny parade. The serious route briefing dissolves into laughter. Iridella folds the map for a while; the next gateway will still be there after the celebration.
They collect no grand revelation in the plaza. They share a bright, unnecessary afternoon. Later, when the journey asks more of them, Starlite will remember this sound: little wheels, fluttering ribbons, and a gathering happy simply to have arrived.
