Right? I thought so, too. I asked your leader earlier this week about the archives and they seemed pretty puzzled by the lack of history, too. We were comparing old copies of the paper from when we first got here.

[ but then she says that and he's pausing. ]

...I wasn't before, but now I might be. Like missing pages we have to put together to recreate a full story?

[squelching]

That could be it. If the book was severely damaged, it would make sense if the pages that survived ended up getting scattered. We also don't know what Silver Horse's power was or how the book was damaged.

But we know the moon got angry when it happened, right? Since it was in the middle of the fight, it sounds like it could have been an accident. But maybe the moon attacked them because it wasn't an accident, and Horse damaged the book on purpose — to rip out its pages.

[ i see i left this open on my desktop all weekend. ]

I guess that's something we could try to ask the leaders, though a lot of them I've spoken to have been a little raw from their passing still. It may need some time.

You think maybe Horse did it as a precaution knowing that if the moon got ahold of the book something worse would happen?

[squelching]

It's been weeks. It's not like any of us can afford to be raw, you know...

[this is so rude but saya is truly out here, like. we watch people die every week. your grief ain't more special than theirs, gosh.]

I'm just throwing the theory out there. But they must've taken the book from the moon for some reason, right?

[ he snorts. ]

No, um. I can agree with that. [ said the demigod of grief. ] But trying to push some of them just feels bad and also we don't get anywhere and it's a waste. So it's about being strategic in the approach.

There definitely has to be a reason. We should start asking more about that and seeing how it all connects. We're getting all of this information for some reason, aren't we?

[squelching]

[she sighs.]

Fine... I guess you're right. [the npcs clam up so fast and for what!! --saya, 20XX] We are. Or at least, I hope so. There has to be something we can do with this information, too...

[ shaking his head. ]

We just keep collecting and hope for the best. [ but since this is w2... ] You're staying with other people tonight, aren't you?

[squelching]

Yeah. I think I'm going to the movie theater with Tama and Axel... You have someone to stay with, too, right?

[ there's a small smile. ]

Wherever Will goes, I go. So we probably have a few others we're sticking with tonight back at our dorm. [ he does not acknowledge they are on different teams and therefore do not actually really share a dorm. ]
