AnswerText:	Oh dear. His psychometry should be able to hone in easier on the bad feelings Katalyth gives off, yes. Should his 'friend' touch it... they will probably not enjoy it. For unaugmented humans, that contact would be lethal, and their death long enough to be agonizing. The Augmented- should they not keep hold, lick, or otherwise try to <i>eat</i> Katalyth- won't have a great time. There will be absolute mental agony, and it will only possibly be matched by the accompanying physical agony. They will develop some of the physical signs of arcane radiation poisoning such as blackened boils, blindness, paralysis, seizures- but they will pass if they don't continue touching the thing. Throughout it, they will be terrified, panicked, and possibly violent. <br><br>But hey, they'll probably survive. Recovery from their injuries will take hours, at least- if not longer. Characters who are very good at healing themselves might recover faster (unless they have to do so consciously and are too incoherent to manage it). Terras are probably more sensitive, while Golems might have a marginally easier time (they still can't eat it). (If anyone does touch it for too long- longer than a minute or so- they will die and need to either be able to revive themself, or be brought back to Patho-Gen for resurrection.)<br><br>The Valentia library is, in fact, largely slop. It's entertainment, intended for quick reads and quick returns, from the building's past as a hotel. It's possible someone has left an errant textbook behind, or dry historical novel... but it is by and large slop. If you want non-slop you'll have to visit one of the city's multitude of real libraries.
