Library Mingle Log

[foundafamily]

Who: Everyone!
Where: The Library
When: Throughout their time in Struxta
Rating: PG, will edit if this changes
What: The Circle gets together for some research on what this place is all about. Please treat this like a mingle log--feel free to put up a starter and tag around!

The Library (hopefully) promises to have the answers that the Welcome Committee and the general robot on the street don't. Characters can access the information by computer, and the Library has just about everything that's happened in Struxta.

That's thousands of years of information to wade through, so get to work!

[ooc: As it says above, please feel free to put up your own starter and tag around! Characters can have heard others chatting about the library or been told about it by the Welcome Committee or have just wandered in. If you come across anything of interest that you'd like me to edit into or link in the main post, please just let me know.]

[There was... much less wandering than Nihuang had anticipated here, unless the thing to wander was the mind. Although Aunt Jing seems to be engaged with the document on her screen, Nihuang has had a fair amount of difficulty narrowing down her... query. She peeks at her aunt again, then leans down to peer at the floating stanzas in her hands.

No wonder she was wearing such an expression. She brings up her own wrist as a test, but,]

... the translator doesn't work very well here, does it.

[She glances over at Nihuang and smiles, shaking her head.] I don't know if it's the translation or the writing itself. Or perhaps there's even more translation in these works than we're assuming to be the case.

I don't know how well the translation that Lady Astoria provides would deal with something written by a non-native in the first place, for example.
