---|---|
501 | You upend a hoary tome of Thislebald's Impossible Epistles and out slides a Beechwood original: an engraving of an ape, plummeting from a tree. A man dusts himself off as he rises. |
502 | This copy of A Condensed History of the Starved Men written on very inappropriate material – namely, scrimshaw. It contains a family tree, which on closer reflection, appears to consist of a single individual. |
503 | You use a scalpel bathed in violant to peel apart palimpsests of forgotten hagiographies and neglected chronicles.[…]you find a number of startling similarities pertaining to the foundations of various Neathy communities. All entirely denied, of course. |
