@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?

Though I suppose the importance of that depends on its place of origin. After all, we've come from different realities. We can't rule out that some of these records have done the same.
no subject
[And Keeper, of course, won't share maps further than what Will placed on the app.]
May I ask where you come from?
no subject
If enough substance or meaning was found by an earlier group, activating a reset would be counter-intuitive.
I'm from a place called Earth. From a smaller city in a small state in a relatively average sized country. I haven't found anyone yet from my particular reality.
no subject
Not entirely necessary.
From what I read on Keeper's Network post, she sends the spirits to do the reset- to basically kill us all to the point of no return. The other group could've made a progress but they decided to turn on the Keeper so she flipped the switch on reset.
Hopefully, we will be able to run into some clues
no subject
I wonder at the difference between us then. If we've died as they say, then that implies we too are spirits.
But they don't require lanterns.
no subject
There's nothing in the books at the Library. Except for this Panem map I found.
And then the museum too. A lot of questions and not a lot of answers
no subject
I don't suppose you've come across anything resembling topographical notes or zoning records?
no subject
Nothing too detailed, however.
no subject
Well, thank you for your time regardless.
