Summary

We got to have a bit of a rest after that last... adventure. Yes, put the ellipses in there. Like that, good. Wait, why are you transcribing that too? This is the most stupid software. I thought it was supposed to be intelligent. I bet it was made in France. Stück scheiße.

How do I backspace? This makes no sense. I wish Agent Elle was doing this. She just types and it works. How did it know to write that in german?

That doesn't work.

Stupid thing! What idiot designed you!

Manual. Manual input. Type? Why are you on a new line? God in heaven, what are am I

Whatever.

Whoever files this, I want it known I do not like this new program and I am going to use Elle when I get back. She did this better. At this rate I may as well have just typed it myself, for all it takes me so long to find the letters. I wish there was a better way to do this away from headquarters.

Lily found out that Tabula Rasa is a game made by people who don't know how to make games. I don't know if that's very useful to know. Tara and Seelie ceiling no, no, no wait a second there's a thingie for names there in that menu there we go. Tara and Ceelie found out things about a man long ago named Tabula who stole girls and killed them to make sure he stayed pretty. He sounds like the kind of person we go and beat up, so I think this will be useful.

Oh. Tara and Ceelie also found out that the man was killed by some kid who stabbed him with four gold tridents then kid the tridents in case Tabula came back someday. Humans are so odd. Nothing about any sphericus. See, I figured out how to type!

One of the tridents was in the Colliseum in Rome, so we went there. Tara was very excited and squeaky. There were very very many people, very dangerous, everyone drove around too fast. When we got close to the Colliseum, thankfully all the people kind of vanished and we were alone. The Colliseum also looked brand new, do damage. Then there was a man, some kind of majordomo who was magically created just for this place and to guard the fork. He seemed to think we were contestants of some kind and that Ceelie was a chosen one, whatever one of those is. I gathered that Ceelie is the one who will actually get the trident (which everyone is now calling a fork) because she is special, and the rest of us will fight strange other beings so that she can get it. This makes some sort of sense, I suppose. We will be fighting for something we all want. Except some of the other people don't seem to especially want the fork, they are just there to provide worthy opponents.

I should talk about the opponents, I guess. There is a small green shiny thing called Emero that talks like a tin whistle.
There is Dan, who we know.
There is a man from MISTIC named Isaac Di-ode or something like that, who knows a lot about machines and things and is quite polite but makes me feel like I should push him away and make him leave. Like he is trespassing. Anyway.
There is Madame Rough who looks a lot like Li but is female. She looks feisty. Spicy.
There is someone called Pol who is an ice numair, I think. She just wants to go home. I know what she means.
There is a Qi-zan named Rick Holden who is a lot like Diiman but is a real spy, not an actor. I don't like him. He's flashy.
There is also some man who calls himself Slash-Zor or something like that. I think he's mentally unbalanced. He was very excitable and talked about things that were not real, and he had a sword and armor made of tinfoil and plastic. Lily laughed at him in a mean way but I agreed with her.

Humans are very odd.

We will be fighting all these people in a tournament. The winner of the tournament gets to decide who gets the fork. Of course if one of us wins we'll get to choose and presumably give it to Ceelie.

That is all for now. Apparently there are rooms for us to sleep and things, so I will go now.
