I returned to an entry I wrote four years ago and found it still exact — every measurement, every marking. This is not remarkable. What is remarkable is the thing itself, which has not changed either, while three uncatalogued specimens beside it have drifted so far I had to start their pages again.

A difficulty. The same sword arrives under nine different names depending on who found it. I have ruled that the Codex records the PATTERN and not the instance. This ruling was not popular with the smiths, who feel their sword should get its own page, and it is going to keep not being popular.

Went down as far as the second gallery. There is a spider there who keeps records of her own, in thread, of everyone who came down and did not come up. Professionally I recognise the impulse. I did not say so.

The Wardens hold that the Veil is a wall. The Seekers hold that it is a door. Both delegations have now visited my office to explain that the Codex must reflect the correct position. I have entered both positions, side by side, on the same page. Both delegations left unhappy, which I take as the entry being right.

A thing calling itself Grand Fromage has been terrorising the eastern road. I am required to catalogue it. I have catalogued it. I want it on record that I catalogued it in full, with measurements, and that at no point did anybody explain the cheese to me.
