DAY 3
After an early start, and a substantial buffet breakfast, Patricia heads out to the library to research her own origin while the others are still eating.
After arriving at the library (a huge snail like shell) and meating the librarian (a beagle in a suit) Patricia unearths the following information:
There is only one definite twice fallen - Lord Doomforall, who is further unique in that he is the only known being able to be able to traverse universes under his own power, albiet with only partial control of his destination (OOC: ala tardis). Interestingly, during the period he was ruling this world an unusual background energy was detected by a group called the Crystalline Monks of Qwi. It started high and gradually decayed over his reign to nothing. In all other circumstances connected with a possible twice-fallen this same energy spiked for a duration of 15 days before disappearing. There is also an unidentified energy spike within the last 20 years.
The seven other known presumed Twice fallen associated with these events are:
Ghortax, Ebonlise, Professor Vengeance, Ultimatrix 23, Roger the small brown terrier, Mirrorsong, Kethlutei
The Beagle then suggests that Patricia could go to The Honourable Guild of Mad and Dippy Scientists which is nearby to see if there is any of this energy present, thus indicating Patricia's possible origins. They are apparently harmless except to an individual called Snikwad Drahcir.
At Patricia's request, the Beagle also finds some books about the Mechanist -
the first seems to be about the mechanist via interviews with people whose lives have been changed by him
the second is a book detailing changes to the mechanist visually over the years
the third is more or less a straight but vague biography
There is also a book about the ten most powerful figures in Melded, listing: Panginoon, The Mechanist, The Ravager, Monsoir Butterfly, V, Ms Trundrebog, Hawksong, John Smith, Hyperion and, perhaps strangely, Atoom
There is also a book about the Mechanist's company: most interesting is that for an otherwise thorough book, it mentions AK frequently, but doesn't actually tell anything about them.
Lastly, the Beagle offers an odd piece of knowledge - names apparently have more meaning here because a rule of another univese fell. Essentially, look to names more to find information.
