After a long search, I, Archmage Sylan Synnevere, have found the perfect arcane host for my dangerous research notes into the nature of magic. If found, immediately stop reading and return to the same at:
c/o his descendants (if applicable).
searched into extramatter;
located outsider (calls itself “service provider”, but outsider type not in index);
[NB- this is simply unprof! buy new blue pages?!]
Incantation name: “tumbler”, reason unknown?;
to exit: leave extramatter by means of tether.
Amnesia is a real problem, Sylan, so I am writing these accounts for you (me) in case you one day mix up the potion reagents again or something else unpredictably forgettable happens. Remember: no one let us live that one down easily. I am currently continuing my studies of extramatter phenomena and have discovered a means of teleportation through it (coin the term ‘matterportation’ if I forget)* which allows me to both travel and look out of the windows, so to speak.
As I write these notes, I am preparing the ingredients for my second trip there.
00:00 Everything is ready. The matterportation was successful and I am now viewing the extramatter from inside itself. I am so excited; my hands are shaking from all the hidden knowledge, waiting to be revealed and described in my notes!
00:15 In my excitement, I ran out of a significant portion of my stronger ingredients. No matter! This trip is already yielding many (so far undescribed) insights!
00:27 I see it! The first extramatter creature I am observing! How exciting!!! Shape unclear and fuzzy, begin scanning. Looks humanoid and feminine.
[NB: extramatter had humanoids…? must research more]
00:29 Creature sneaking in unclear location / direction.
00:32 Creature interacting with other creatures. Cannot avert viewport to other creatures to confirm.
00:34 Lipsync through the fuzzy image, creature mouthing T, E, N, E, TH. Possible outsider designation?
00:35 BREAKTHROUGH! Creature has turned into another creature! New creature covered in thick fur and snarling!
[NB: spontaneous polymorphism possible in extramatter?!]
00:40 End trip. Viewport desynchronized, lost creature.
Excellent findings! I cannot wait to analyze everything! I am attaching a magicap of the whole event.
* Welcome, dear reader, to this work of historical significance. If you have read past the Archmage’s warnings, then you are as curious and as brave as us. Bravo! None of the original material has been changed, but we have taken the opportunity to add these explanatory notes at the bottom of the page for certain concepts, for the benefit of the reader. We hope you enjoy this as much as we have (and currently are, as the editing is a work in progress!).
In particular, the Archmage seems to have come up with an exotic term for the action of ‘movement’ or ‘transportation’, which is to carry or move an object through space.
** Here the A. seems to have forgotten to note this extremely interesting information. Believe us, we are eager to know as well!
