That is... not an answerable question.

*Nods*
Understood. I think that Rythian may be the greatest source of variability, given that we've verified his fabrication. That could lead to a contradictory state, collapsing the simulation.

@Etcetera

And it all starts with proving this is a fabrication to begin with.

@Multifarious

Where are these texts?

Where are these texts?

@Etcetera

Right through here!
*Runs my finger down the center of the wall like a zipper as it splits open harmlessly*
This place doesn’t have normal architecture. It was designed for us and only us to navigate, after all.

@Unhinged

What a peculiar design. I approve.

@Etcetera

*Walks into the room*
If it’s as easy as we think it is, it should just take one book to prove it, right?

@Unhinged

If it's a book he would be familiar with.

Yes.

@Etcetera

You have to promise not to look into anything here. Not by reading, not by doing anything in any alternative fashion to take knowledge from here. In the event that this is real, doing so will put you in danger forever. Or until your memory of it is wiped. The information itself is dangerous.

@Etcetera

Are you kidding me?! He’s the prodigy on this stuff! So many of these are lost texts and such that he went and recovered. He’s the most knowledgable person on these topics in eons! He knows everything in here inside and out, just about.

[Etcetera]

<Snipped quote by Unhinged>

Yes.

@Multifarious

*Nods and turns around*
I'm well acquainted with infohazards. I'd much rather avoid another confrontation with one.

*Raises a hand*
I hadn't intended to downplay his accomplishments. I'm unfamiliar with this place.

@Etcetera

I’m glad you understand. There are more people than you’d imagine who would do anything to be standing in this room right now.
*Walks over to the nearest shelf and grabs a book, opening it and looking inside*

@Etcetera

I’m not insulted. Just putting it into perspective.

@Multifarious

If knowledge is self-destructive, it becomes of little use.

@Unhinged

Then we shall hopefully have our answer shortly.

@Etcetera

Hmm... Zoey, this is Raw Time in Space. Tell me if anything sticks out to you.
*Hands the book to her*

@Multifarious

I assume the book titles are safe? And what implications would it have on the system if it were involved somehow?

@Multifarious

*Takes it, and glances in it for a bit, squinting and sticking my tongue out*
I’m not so good with the time stuff yet.
*Flips over several pages*
But this doesn’t seem to line up with what I know about space at all.

@Etcetera

Some are, some wouldn’t be. This one is. Implications on what system?

@Unhinged

I’m shocked there’s an accurate title in here, but almost nothing inside is right.

@Multifarious

Implications on the simulation system. It’s a non-living entity to be certain, but is full quarantine and destruction of the lab warranted?

@Etcetera

If it got anything vital correct, it would be. But based on that, I don’t think there’s a need.
