Trying to take a bit more time away from the Abandoned Dorm, since Kai keeps poking me to get my nose out of half burned journals and artifacts.

I guess it's still related, but I want to do some digging around based on some terms I've found.

- The Headless God
- The Yellow Sign / The Golden Sign
- The Black Sun
- Fujiwara Yusuke
- Inertia, Grimoire of the Stars
- Congregation of the Nine Gods
- Nugg-Ktynor, The Believer
- The Fleece of Origins
- Inscriptions of Eternity
- Ex Altiora
- Liber Ivonis or Livre d'Eibon
- The Prophecies of Flames
- The Thanithu Fragments
- A Grimore titled "The Lost Continent"
- The Codex of Parray
- The Enochian Tablets
- The Absolute "G.O.D."

There is a LOT of nonsense down there and I need to be above ground more I think.

Any of these ring any bells.

Correct, and what happens when the Yellow Sign opens signals either the end of all life as we know it or a rebirth into a great new promised land, yes?

...You're sure? Fujiwara's name comes up with the Yellow Sign?

...It was something about... a Queen of Flame and the Obsidian King, and the world being reborn in fire. I think. It's been some time since I've thought about it.

There are probably some people I can ask for more details. I'm sorry I can't be more help on some of these - I only started keeping strict records a couple years after graduation - so some of this is a bit lost.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

No clue! But it could be. It's just noted as being Auspicious, but the details are terribly vague and it connects with something similar to The Pure Land of Bliss, Sukhavati, or the paradises of Shangri-La or Eden.

All over it. His main focus was on really strange occult magic regarding alchemy, Enochism, and. Every side paper I keep finding seems to have his stink over it. Esotericism, Egyptian Magic, the Occult, Enochian Spirits, the Goetia, etc. You can name it, he's had his hand on it with regards to western magic.

... That sounds very strange, I'll dog ear notes to try and dig in, if you'd like.

Please do so, I need to do something above ground, even remotely or else Kai yells at me.

[becomeanwarrior]

That sounds about right from my knowledge.

...When put like that, it does make sense - something in my memory is nagging at me that he was very deep into the occult, and the Abandoned Dorm might have been his 'turf' to some degree. But we're getting into stuff well before my time, so I have little but hearsay in that regard.

Please do. I can try and corroborate anything in that regard.

If you would like, I can set you up a temporary office at OOPARTS to do some work. Everything I've managed to collect of various events and notable phenomena I've interacted with or know someone has interacted with is stored in the Twelve Peers Archival System. It might be useful in cross-referencing your notes.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

At the very least there was a LOT of research that was his, like he's a heavy weight but it's always on the margins never up front. Like he was never their lead research, it's always to the side and off angle.

What would you like to know from the peeled and burned copy I have.

It might be useful, I'm mostly an academic at Duel Academy doing this archaeological work to earn degrees, with the backing of the Wakahisa family. And it might.

[becomeanwarrior]

Yeah, in which case, not surprised. I'd wager he's at least half the reason the Abandoned Dorm was off-limits when I went to school.

Give me a broad strokes overview, just to see if it lines up with what my memory is nagging at me about.

The work you're encroaching on is half the reason OOPARTS - and its predecessor, the Domino Police Special Investigations Department - were formed. We have a decent enough repository. It has holes but most everything in the archives is from primary or secondary sources from those who either witnessed or studied the events in question.

And if you have the backing of my cousins, I'm sure I can set you up with access to everything except what might be under lock and key for Current Investigations.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

I would.

Except, it appears to have been stolen.

The main line that stuck out to me was.

"Behold the birth of the uncrowned King who comes for his throne in dread Kaddath."

[becomeanwarrior]

...Kaddath? That's... not what I was expecting, but. Hrm.

And... it's been stolen?

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

Yes. Signs of a break in in my makeshift office.

Book's been taken.

And it seems to be an older variant of the "Uncrowned Queen" prophecy.

... A prophecy recycled... has me very. Concerned might not be the right word, but definitely on edge.

[becomeanwarrior]

I can see why.

...I'd definitely like to see whatever texts you deem safe to bring back to compare with what we have... if it's a older variant of the "Uncrowned Queen"...

Mmm. I have a bad feeling about this.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

I'd rather you come here and possibly with storage equipment because I'd rather not have another break in.

[becomeanwarrior]

Easily arranged, Mr. Kanzawa.

In the meantime, any further notes you might be able to salvage - barring the loss of the texts already stolen - would be helpful. You might have stumbled onto something... a bit troublesome.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

I'll see what I can do, but that place's ruins... is like a hole in the world.

And I'm not sure how deep Wonderland goes.

[becomeanwarrior]

Yeah, I don't doubt it.

Be safe, more than anything, Mr. Kanzawa.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

Agreed.
