Hello everyone. It's me, your faithful Producer. THE Producer. Hope you're not too surprised to see me here. I mean, I am the head of The Library, after all.
Anyway yeah, I'm stepping out from behind the curtains here a bit to clarify a few things. It's been viewed as a bit... "unfair" for me to give you guys too much of a guiding hand. While I AM your guide, my constant interpretation and input on events that transpire may be seen as me tipping the scales a bit too harshly. As such, some parts of this archive may be incomplete until you yourselves do your own interpretations and analysis.
These sections will be labelled when this is the case. I just don't wanna ruin the fun by doing your jobs for you. With that said, the most recent archive has been updated. Some things have been added in where they previous were not, so give it a look.
