Edit History

• Queen Constance of Comment pens an extremely appropriate letter of congratulations to Mortimer the Red without a single drop of concern or personal warmth. Her entire understanding of Masque society is through his reports, and her understanding of him is enough that she has no need to get closer.
• The Queen reaches out to invite the harried Count Federico and his family to shelter in the Arkhive for the time being, should they like.
• The Outreach Committee, which is currently mostly a rubber stamp for Constance, invites the author of the plant-planet novel to the Arkhive to give a reading. If accepted, the Arkhive purchases a buncha buncha waxpaper copies and provide them free of charge to visitors, hands out reader's guides, holds regular book club sessions both in-person and on a dedicated forum, and looks into sourcing a planet-spanning plant organism for the event.
• The Arkhive welcomes union inspectors, offer them a guided tour, by the Queen if they desire or by any worker(s) in the Arkhive. We make sure to discuss the guarantee of food and housing in the Arkhive for both citizens and newcomers alike. The most physically demanding labor on the whole is agricultural, but given modern technology and the curation of the bees, even that isn't backbreaking. Lots of folks enjoy five-hour research days. Some choose to work all day at a relaxed pace. Librarians and the Queen are on duty near-constantly, but they're explicitly not working class so chill. If times were to grow hard, the policy of labor by consent would need to be reviewed, but a careful cultivation of a sense of duty in a population of welcomed migrants mean that most folks came here to do whatever task it is they do. See if we can convince any inspectors to stay. We're sure their perspectives would help our research.

• The reception of Snimt'Glek is not unconsidered. While the Arkhive likely won't cause to great an offense, the situation seems, at least from the outside, delicate enough that there is a line to walk between showing diplomatic honor to their guest and international deference to the decisions of the sovereign Glix. After some thought and some discussion, Constance errs on the side of open friendliness.

  When Snimt'Glek arrives, her Arkhival Majesty, Queen Constance of Comment the First, is present to greet him, dressed appropriately for a public event but not for international diplomacy. She warmly greets the new arrival before the Arkhive itself, doing whatever phocine version of a handshake is best.

  "I," she begins, using the singular pronoun with care, "Hope your journey across the void was as comfortable as such a thing can be. The Arkhive is always honored to be joined by esteemed guests from the great peoples of the Elect."

  She then addresses any escort or, failing that, carefully placed cameras because something has to get back to the Combine.

  "We have few friends as dear as the Glix, and are grateful to continue our close ties. [We wish to send with you]/[We are sending you] these meagre gifts in the hope that our respect is conveyed through them. May Chif'Blak govern with the wisdom of all the stars in the sky, and may The Hammer continue in her glory to ensure the safety of the Combine entire."

  The gifts are simple waxen boxes, barely bigger than a glasses case, inside of which are wells of Honeyed Words and a scant ounce of Royal Jelly. The Hammer's includes a small handwritten note voicespoken memo from Constance: The only surprise I felt on hearing of your promotion was that it wasn't done sooner! I am grateful to see my friends ascend to their rightful places. Please never hesitate to ask for any help I can provide.

• Queen Constance, up late as she revels in a museum well-opened (and grateful no one asked about the radiation don'tworryaboutit), flips on the Heliotrope Broadcast. Soon enough, she slowly moves her cursor over to a link. Two clicks later, and there's a skyju plushie coming for each Librarian, as well as Constance herself.

Economy ('splore [1]): How does the Arkhive explore a massive, abandoned-or-destroyed-or-otherwise-cut-off aerostat? No surprises here. There's a knocking at the threshold. A hiss of equalizing atmospheres as a crack forms. And then the bees begin to pour in by the thousand, seeking out what there is to be found. Each is equipped with a little camera, which R&D did take the time to make into a little hat. Bee-haw, buckaroos. Bee. Haw.

Faith (Hive [10]) 2/5: Do you beelieve in hive after love? Setting up the Hive after delivering the parts and the bees is only the first step. It's up to the bees now to see if they take root. Colony Collapse Disorder would prove disastrous, not so much because the Hive would be lost, since more bees could be imported with ease given the warm relations, but because the ravening hordes of feral hymenopterae would massacre Jy'mar like so many apian wolves. Or at least that's what we can assume. Luckily, time and belief (bees can sense belief) see the hive through.

Economy (Hive [2] 1/5): A crate of buzzing and a pack of seeds show up in the North Way Cluster. Sadly, the instructions are all IKEA style, so setup will take some time.

Faith (Convert) 31: The Arkhive enjoys a special relationship with Coedd but does not officially sponsor missionary work. It enjoys freedom of religion and imposes nothing on anyone. That said, the overwhelming majority of Arkhivists are Coedd's, likely due to the inevitable Truth of the being. Scholars can't deny that. And if, when plants get funky, a few visiting scholars happen to massage the reactions of those in the newly conquered [31] to understanding of Coedd's work, well. That happens.

If times were to grow hard, the policy of labor by consent would need to be reviewed, but a careful cultivation of a sense of duty in a population of welcomed migrants mean that most folks came here to do whatever task it is they do. See if we can convince any inspectors to stay. We're sure their perspectives would help our research.

• The reception of Snimt'Glek is not unconsidered. While the Arkhive likely won't cause to great an offense, the situation seems, at least from the outside, delicate enough that there is a line to walk between showing diplomatic honor to their guest and international deference to the decisions of the sovereign Glix. After some thought and some discussion, Constance errs on the side of open friendliness.

  When Snimt'Glek arrives, her Arkhival Majesty, Queen Constance of Comment the First, is present to greet him, dressed appropriately for a public event but not for international diplomacy. She warmly greets the new arrival before the Arkhive itself, doing whatever phocine version of a handshake is best.

  "I," she begins, using the singular pronoun with care, "Hope your journey across the void was as comfortable as such a thing can be. The Arkhive is always honored to be joined by esteemed guests from the great peoples of the Elect."

  She then addresses any escort or, failing that, carefully placed cameras because something has to get back to the Combine.

  "We have few friends as dear as the Glix, and are grateful to continue our close ties. [We wish to send with you]/[We are sending you] these meagre gifts in the hope that our respect is conveyed through them. May Chif'Blak govern with the wisdom of all the stars in the sky, and may The Hammer continue in her glory to ensure the safety of the Combine entire."

  The gifts are simple waxen boxes, barely bigger than a glasses case, inside of which are wells of Honeyed Words and a scant ounce of Royal Jelly. The Hammer's includes a small handwritten note voicespoken memo from Constance: The only surprise I felt on hearing of your promotion was that it wasn't done sooner! I am grateful to see my friends ascend to their rightful places. Please never hesitate to ask for any help I can provide.

• Queen Constance, up late as she revels in a museum well-opened (and grateful no one asked about the radiation don'tworryaboutit), flips on the Heliotrope Broadcast. Soon enough, she slowly moves her cursor over to a link. Two clicks later, and there's a skyju plushie coming for each Librarian, as well as Constance herself.

Economy ('splore [1]): How does the Arkhive explore a massive, abandoned-or-destroyed-or-otherwise-cut-off aerostat? No surprises here. There's a knocking at the threshold. A hiss of equalizing atmospheres as a crack forms. And then the bees begin to pour in by the thousand, seeking out what there is to be found. Each is equipped with a little camera, which R&D did take the time to make into a little hat. Bee-haw, buckaroos. Bee. Haw.

Faith (Hive [10]) 2/5: Do you beelieve in hive after love? Setting up the Hive after delivering the parts and the bees is only the first step. It's up to the bees now to see if they take root. Colony Collapse Disorder would prove disastrous, not so much because the Hive would be lost, since more bees could be imported with ease given the warm relations, but because the ravening hordes of feral hymenopterae would massacre Jy'mar like so many apian wolves. Or at least that's what we can assume. Luckily, time and belief (bees can sense belief) see the hive through.

Diplomacy: Host the Second Hexenniel Conference for the Liberation of Knowledge and Fostering of Growth in Sansar

Sub-actions thereof: Pay the Imperial Tax and get rid of this darn treasure that I don't wanna keep track of. It is done with all proper forms and such but no extra ceremony.

Trade all techs to anyone. I'll try to have the total list here of exact trades.

Economy (Hive [2] 1/5): A crate of buzzing and a pack of seeds show up in the North Way Cluster. Sadly, the instructions are all IKEA style, so setup will take some time.

Faith (Convert) 31: The Arkhive enjoys a special relationship with Coedd but does not officially sponsor missionary work. It enjoys freedom of religion and imposes nothing on anyone. That said, the overwhelming majority of Arkhivists are Coedd's, likely due to the inevitable Truth of the being. Scholars can't deny that. And if, when plants get funky, a few visiting scholars happen to massage the reactions of those in the newly conquered [31] to understanding of Coedd's work, well. That happens.

• Queen Constance of Comment pens an extremely appropriate letter of congratulations to Mortimer the Red without a single drop of concern or personal warmth. Her entire understanding of Masque society is through his reports, and her understanding of him is enough that she has no need to get closer.
• The Queen reaches out to invite the harried Count Federico and his family to shelter in the Arkhive for the time being, should they like.
• The Outreach Committee, which is currently mostly a rubber stamp for Constance, invites the author of the plant-planet novel to the Arkhive to give a reading. If accepted, the Arkhive purchases a buncha buncha waxpaper copies and provide them free of charge to visitors, hands out reader's guides, holds regular book club sessions both in-person and on a dedicated forum, and looks into sourcing a planet-spanning plant organism for the event.
• The Arkhive welcomes union inspectors, offer them a guided tour, by the Queen if they desire or by any worker(s) in the Arkhive. We make sure to discuss the guarantee of food and housing in the Arkhive for both citizens and newcomers alike. See if we can convince any to stay.
