TransLink (legally the Holy Translink Alliance of the Greater Vancouver Regional Consortium) is an ancient secret society that went public in 1788 due to enormous internal guilt regarding prior "trans-gressions." The gigantic bureaucratic cult was established as an offshoot of the Spacefaring Guild popularized in Frank Herbert's Dune, but is actually responsible for creating the guild's slogan, "The spice must flow!" Translink is also the chief (and sole) sponsor of the transgendered mixer event, "Trans-Link", which regularly collapses from a simple mixer into a drinking competition, then further into a totally rockin' orgy, due mainly to the unusually high numbers of Surrealists in attendance.
