@Scientia; Entry 01
[Ignis seriously doesn't know the right way to start these entries so- he just types.]
Ignis here.
I visited the Library few days ago (read: Aug28th) to check on the Librarian spirit. The entire incident had left them to feel gloomy and I didn't want us to lose the handful of spirits that still like us.
[Bear with him, he IS going somewhere with this]
As always, after a "cookies & chat" I scour the Library, reading and returning books along the way. I usually never run into anything of importance, asides from books on stars and random biographies (which is a good way to pass time).
That day, however, I ran into a geography book. This is what I found.
[Ignis shares image.jpg- a page in the book of a continent (North America), with scrawlings alongside the margins. It is not the best lit picture ever, but it decently shows that someone has been marking the said continent with numbers from 1 to 12 at the places that are completely blocked out. The word that stands out amidst all of it is "Panem".]
I have never heard of this continent
Nor am I claiming that we are residing on it right now
I have been trying to make some sense of it in the past two days, but without the basics, I'm afraid I can't move past it.
And now, after hearing that bit from Will, keeping it as a puzzle to solve in borning evenings is out of the question.
After reading Will's post, some of my assumptions:
1. If this actually represents the land we are on, the 12 points could be older Beacons
2. They are blocked/scratched off because they fell to the World Eaters in the past
3. There might be some salvageable information there
Amidst all of this I still cannot fit in word "Panem" anywhere, so please take this with a grain of salt. The only solid confirmation that this is the land we're on would be from the Keeper (and I have some doubts she will do it).
Note: You can check out the book by yourself at the Library in the Village
Warning 1: If you visit, do not antagonize the Librarian. They were skittish and uncomfortable even when I opened the book.
Warning 2: Don't go off on your own to check and prove this. Eager you might be, but you'll end up dead without anyone to return your lantern.
What is your take on this?

Got it. I'll ask Robin.
no subject
Do you think she will share such information?
I remember Rosinante asking for maps of this place, but she didn't give them because we will get "bored"
[What he wants to say is- he's not expecting much from her.]
no subject
I know it's frustrating that there's a lot we could know but can't, or we're not allowed the knowledge, but we gotta work with what we've got.
no subject
[World is going to get consumed and she wants them to play hide-n-seek]
Nevertheless, has anyone checked that out yet? Should we form a group?
no subject
Haven't really told many people about going east yet, just a newcomer named Kakyoin. Maybe another newcomer or two couldn't hurt, just to show them the ropes.
Got anybody else in mind who would help?
no subject
trust me, time flies faster than you expect...
I have met several people although I think they need a moment to settle in.
I can send them your way if they show interest
no subject
It'd be ideal if some of them already knew how to work together. I'd have people in mind but...
They're gone.
no subject
If there is any way I can help you, don't hesitate to ask
[Even if it's only securing the food for the trip]
no subject
What I need is people who have experience working as a team.
no subject
May I ask for a favor? Could you please keep an eye on the word 'Panem', if it repeats itself? I cannot tell whether it is the name of this place or a person that once lived here.
