Diary Entry 3

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

[A very frustrated River has spent all day in the Library searching for information on the world of Paradisa itself and found nothing, zip, nada. The archeologist in her simply refuses to believe that a world so diversely inhabitated, and that clearly has history, judging by the research she's been doing in the journals, has no research or data recorded beyond the residents' personal experiences.

There's the the angry thud of a book being tossed, namely her journal, and then the following, which is recorded as the journal lands open.]

That's insane! No-one, not ONE person has managed to find out anything about this place. No digs, no research, no data collection. Nothing about this goddamn place's history or origins. Have they all been brainwashed?!

Welcome to our world.

[excuse her a minute while she picks the journal back up. Huffing irritatedly.]

There's got to be something, some clue somewhere.

[not-from-mars.livejournal.com]

If there is one, it's very well-hidden.

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

Well wherever it is, it needs finding. Giving up isn't the answer.

[not-from-mars.livejournal.com]

Quite right, too.

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

How far can the TARDIS get you? How much of this place have you covered?

[not-from-mars.livejournal.com]

I thought I'd been everywhere until those mountains appeared in the distance just a few days ago. Haven't had the chance to go out since.

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

Well that's settled then.

[twatular.livejournal.com]

Bee in your bonnet, luv?

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

You could say that Owen, I don't believe it just can't be cracked.

[twatular.livejournal.com]

At least someone's givin' it an effort.

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

Well someone needs to, I'm not going to roll over and bark.

[twatular.livejournal.com]

Good luck with that, then. No one else's managed it yet.

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

Doesn't mean it can't be done.

I think it has more to do with sharing information about this place than discovering it. Even if the natives of this place are unwilling to tell us what they know, I refuse to believe that with as many extraordinary people as there have been trapped here over the years that noone has discovered anything.

[There is a pause.] One resident suggested that if I do find out anything, I should make private-filtered entries so that I'll be able to read them if I leave and come back, but...well, it's not the same!

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

Well if anyone's discovered anything, it's not been documented, at least publically. There are theories, but nothing substantial. Whatever the secrets are, someone or something wants them to stay that way, I suspect.

[eternalvaleth.livejournal.com]

None at all, you say? The mystery deepens.

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

Looks that way, apart from speculation in the journals.

[eternalvaleth.livejournal.com]

Yes, there does seem to be a fair collections of theories, but nary so much of a statement proven. And with no documentation to begin from, what a cloud one is left within.

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

Whatever the secrets are, they were meant to stay that way. I can't believe that no-one has even got close.

[eternalvaleth.livejournal.com]

Nor can I. I would not put foul play past this realm. But that shall not detour me from hunting those secrets down.

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

Well it does seem fond of messing with people, their memories et cetera. I do wonder how much of a fruitless task it may turn out to be, but I'm of the same mind.

I'm River, by the way, Professor River Song, Archeologist.

[eternalvaleth.livejournal.com]

One might not know until it happens unto them, which requires them to dive in and try to piece the puzzle together anyways.

A pleasure, River. I am Lezard Valeth, Scholar.

[practicalslouch.livejournal.com]

... Thank you for the update, ma'am.

[songofspoilers.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure if that's sarcasm or not, so I'll just say you're welcome.
