Can't be any help, sorry. I've been keeping my head in the sand the past few weeks.

Not even questions you have?

I definitely don't blame you for hiding out. This place has been even crazier than normal lately.

I wouldn't even know where to begin.

I guess I can sympathize. It's getting to the point where I don't even know how to try to understand things here. I'm wondering if you have to be insane in the first place.

This is a promising idea, Jessica, in spite of the fact that this place defies explanation in many ways. I'd be glad to help.

The basics about our situation and the uses of the soil are a good starting point. I'm concerned by the fact that some people here accept the things they see and hear as truth far too readily, so I'd include warnings about the Gardens' deceptions and dangers.

A written history of sorts could be useful, including the events experienced by those who have been here for some time. I've heard only fractured accounts of earlier events, and I'm sure there are some I'm not aware of.

Whoa, yeah, that's a really good one. Thanks.

Hmm... I could maybe see about a timeline. I don't know why I didn't think of that in the first place; there might be a pattern to look for.

I'm happy to be of assistance. [She nods, then considers what else should be included.]

Also, the nature of the animals, and of the area itself--the fact that the wilds and boundaries can cause side effects. Anything relating to the basics of survival. Though the cats do bring scrolls with information, some ignore them, and some might find such information easier to digest if it came from a human.

Perhaps the timeline should be a related project, since it might not be a good idea to provide people with too much information at once and risk overwhelming them, but that was exactly my thought. We could track the progress of events and see if any patterns emerge.

Yeah, and the scrolls aren't the most helpful things ever...

Hah, I wonder how long we're gonna be stuck here. I might be able to make a whole new library with just chronicling all the craziness around this place.

...Magic dirt?

One thing that I would include is where to get shelter and food when you're first starting off.

[She got the food down, but she's spent more than a night or two under the stars. Not that any pokemon trainer would be unused to that.]

The stuff you can use to build things. It turns into whatever you're thinking about. Mostly. You get it from the places at the edge of the gardens.

Shelter and food, definitely.

This is my first time hearing about it. What are the limits? Do I need to know how everything in the building works?

I'm afraid that I only got a very limited amount of information when I first came in. Food, shelter, clothing, how to make buildings, you'd think that these would be something someone had mentioned on the first day.

[Irritated? Just slightly.]

Not sure about the limits; it seems like bigger places need more dirt, but I haven't taken the opportunity to measure it. Might have to do that later.

Kazumi made a DDR machine and she's not exactly an electrical engineer, so... I don't think you need a complete knowledge, but it probably helps to know details.

Wow, that sucks. This is exactly why we need some kind of brochure. And I guess a fruit basket or something.

My report on the nature of this reality is in the library. You may use it if you wish.

Thanks, though I expect that's a little more information than most people are going to want first off. I'll add a note about it, though.
