Recovered fragments from the deep foundations of Wing 1. These records define the nature of our reality and the entropy that threatens to overwrite it.
The Library is the world as we know it - solid, finished, and certain. But this is merely "The Paint." Beneath the surface lies **The Draft** (also called the Underdrawing) - a raw, sepia-toned sketch of original intent. This is the invisible architectural draft where erased lines and construction marks still define the true rules of the world.
Deep within the foundations - sealed away from this order - lies The Archive. It is not a layer of reality, but a forgotten Vault containing "Unfinished Thoughts": discarded drafts of existence where ink-stained rivers flow into the sky and echoes arrive before they are spoken.
The seals are failing. The Archive is leaking. Its raw potentiality (**"Flux"**) is seeping into the Library and overwriting the Underdrawing.
Flux is exactly ONE thing: **The refusal to be defined.** It is potentiality that hasn’t collapsed into a single form. In the Real World, a "Door" is a Door. In the Archive, it is a Door, but it is also a Wall, a Window, and a Metaphor. It hasn't chosen a form yet.
A Hinge is fundamentally a logic that both sides accept. It is an agreed-upon truth that the chaos cannot argue with. By applying the right metaphors, the Archivist reconciles the Infinite with the Finite, transforming madness into architectural stability.
