HELLO MODS. I should've really asked this wayyy earlier, but.. i kinda kept forgetting.

So, re: Akechi's little theft during the event. I meant to ask if there's any official buildings around the town? like municipal hall or police station where one could find records of the people? either about the fellow Chosen or locals? Because honestly I was thinking that he'd try to find more information about Aldrip during his little crime spree.

[expiationmods]

The people of Expiation's world are a little too primitive for establishing official records regarding residences, people, or other like concepts. The information that they do have available is largely speculative and theoretical. There may be records of individual experiments that someone might have performed / executed, but nothing in terms of biographical or demographic data on the people.

That isn't to say, however, that a character wouldn't be able to make something like that a possibility, were they willing to pursue such an undertaking...

[murderingjustice]

how is this place functioning lmao..

ANYWAY, that's very interesting. I'd defs be interested in pursuing this. I'll be getting back to you once I get my thoughts together!!
