That is the number of days in between London's fall and when Lewis Carroll told a whimsical story on a river trip. That was the birth of Alice in Wonderland. Was that time enough for the ripples to ruin that tale? Apparently not. In an old discussion, 427 days old, Tanah-Chook says that there's a quote from Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There somewhere. That was published in 1871, 10 years after London fell. We can assume that Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was also published. But, where is he, now? The Christ Church in Oxford, as he did in real life? Will he, knowing death is close, come down the funicular on the Travertine Spiral, and reside in Fallen London, most likely at the University? A sidebar snippet states that disease and old age can kill you just as well as being hacked to pieces, but that's probably untrue. At least, in certain cases.

No.
It's Fallen London. Fallen Oxford would be rubbish.
(I have strong feelings in the ongoing Oxbridge rivalry.)
