A metaphysical institution that has since Roman times held everyone who has lived inside without their being aware that they are prisoners, the Black Iron Prison is described in Horselover Fat's writings entitled Tractates: Cryptica Scriptura. Earlier, he dreams about finding the Black Iron Prison in a cheap science fiction novel. He sees Rome in 70 C.E. superimposed on California in 1970 C.E. It also continues into the distant future. The Black Iron Prison is doomed to destruction at the hands of Christians from the Apostolic Age. The Tractates frequently claim that the Empire, symbolized by the Black Iron Prison, never ended.
