Even if he scrounged thoroughly through the decorated bookstore (and the few small libraries that exist), there wouldn't be any sort of serious literature about the barrier, or how it functions. There would be magazine articles though, which primarily feature lovely artistic photos of its pillars. The focus is definitely on its aesthetic appeal, with only footnotes about how it's saving everyone's lives by existing. <br><br>2. Lupê isn't covered well at all in Kelesian literature- but the same could be said about most serious topics. It's mentioned as one of the islands of Pathos, as far away from their island of Eparsis as it's possible to be. It's more questions than answers, wild hypotheticals on the type of foods they have, or the music they listen to. After a few weeks, some articles will turn up about Lupê's war with Karteria, as noted [https://kelesis.dreamwidth.org/4499.html?thread=5793427#cmt5793427 here].<br><br>The original Augmented's presence in Kelesis wasn't much of a major event in their eyes. There's some older periodicals which give mention to them- and much like the Kelesian's view of them today, is focused more on their charm factor, and less on <i>why</i> they're there. There's interviews on what it's like to have feathers and claws, there's monstrous glamour shots. There's not really anything on what they're <i>doing</i> there.<br><br>3. Kelesian history... to go through the shelves, it'd be possible to get the impression that it just doesn't have one. Apart from some basic facts (It's on the island of Eparsis, it's the largest settlement, it has friendly relations with Karteria on the neighboring island of Orexis), there's nothing that couldn't have already been read about in Karteria. There's nothing about how it was founded, even as part of some idealized mythology. <br><br>There's more on current trends, current fashions, treatises on the lovely weather, and their sparkling waterfront. Anything that tries to be serious or methodical ends up becoming unreasonably poetic and metaphorical instead. The situation with arcane radiation is written like a story- and not even a deliberately sensationalized one, but as a simple storybook tale with a happy ending (The Kelesian barrier! No more information on how it functions here either, it's merely a plot device that means everyone is safe now.).

|AnswerText=1. That's some dull reading Brickston is after! Even if he scrounged thoroughly through the decorated bookstore (and the few small libraries that exist), there wouldn't be any sort of serious literature about the barrier, or how it functions. There would be magazine articles though, which primarily feature lovely artistic photos of its pillars.
