A group of humans and deer-people destroyed all of the souls I preserved near their village. They didn't use them for anything, or build anything new in their stead; they just burnt them to the ground.

I'm not asking for a hint or anything, but it's hard to tell which of the problems here have already been solved and which I'm still supposed to help with. Measuretwice getting to help make potions was a good example, but there's other problems that look solved but there is almost no information available about how. Some of the problems are clearly missions but I don't know enough to decide which ones to help with first, or how to help. Like, I don't even know what Archangel did to the QDS so I can't figure out how to rescue them, even though someone else has already got Archangel to not be mean like that again. I'll need to investigate further. I don't know how I'm going to fix everything yet, but that seems like a good place to start, to help with everything else.
I like that this is harder than everything else, please don't make it easier, I just don't really know what to do yet.

The multiverse ain't designed for you to fix, kid.

While I share my friend's opinions on world-architecture, if you could convince the Neuroi to go the hell away that would be great.

He seems to think that the forum was put into place as a puzzle or something, specifically for him.
The idea that half my family died as part of a setup to provide someone with an interesting challenge is really damn irritating... But I might have overreacted.
Sorry for being harsh about it, Shay.

Of course puzzles are for everyone. I don't see where he implied otherwise.
I'm not sure what you're getting at about a setup? Just because A results in B doesn't mean that A happened for the purpose of B.
It sucks that bad things happen, but would you prefer that they not result in solvable puzzles? That things just... stay broken? That doesn't seem like an improvement.
I'm sure I'm misunderstanding something, but I can't see it.

At least the next week is going to be fencing with candy-canes, helping a yarnpal across a shallow puddle, going out to the hull and turning off the "malfunctioning" button, and watching hexipals tie knots.
The only hard thing is this and I can't figure out what I'm supposed to do, and I can't see what's going on because you're too nice to make people who are actually upset about danger, so it's just words on a fake communicator that you're pretending not to know about and I don't know what to do. Maybe the OTC is trapped or stuck or lost, but I can't see what happened and help, and if there's a clue I'm missing it. It looks like the thing I'm supposed to help with next is the monster world but I'm not supposed to talk about it like a puzzle and you're writing them as upset and I can't see a way to help without having (or "having") magic because they've already tried asking them to stop and all the people who can give away magic are missing and if they weren't it probably wouldn't be safe anyway. I guess it doesn't matter but it was nice to pretend and now I don't know what to do instead.

Maybe you're supposed to do some other stuff first? If you're stuck on something, it's often a good strategy to try to come at it from a different angle, or to work on something else.

It is amazing to be able to share my body with my otherworldly friend, and I feel honored that he chose me. But he does not naturally have a corporeal form and he is used to having one sense and doesn't really intuitively understand the idea of different sensory organs doing different things, or that some sensory experiences can be damaging or unpleasant to have.
My body feels sore, and I just had to clean beans out of my ears and hair.

(I'm sorry I write so much here please tell me if I ought to stop or reduce it)
I have/had not written here for several months because my friend advised that I should not let it distract me too much from my research and he later explained that there are some other beings made almost entirely of Rusakov particles that might have maliciously falsified the readings of the scroll and that he is concerned that I might just be getting tricked but even if you aren't really who you claim and are just the creation of some unfriendly Dust-devil or something, I enjoy interacting with the scroll and the people on it. the people in the town might interfere with my work and I haven't really had much chance to talk to anyone but my friend lately
I have been trying to figure out the windows in this town and have found patterns in their formation and investigating the creatures, both person and nonperson that have fallen through and the objects and my friend and I think I should next try to create a stable window between worlds. I made some progress but I am no longer making it quickly, and I have taken to doing figures at night and it was helping with the speed but I'm still too slow and I think I may just not know enough or have enough skill at engineering and mathematics
My roommate from university might be willing to help me and he's always been a better engineer and his ordinators might be able to help with the math. My friend is the only remaining member of a group of beings with a way to project a part of themselves between worlds and he can project to one person at a time and he says he picks the mind he thinks has the most potential to help. I am so honored that he chose me but I am not doing as well with his help as I should and my roommate from university is smarter and more organized and a better engineer. I should call my old roommate and see if he is willing to help for friendship and the challenge. I miss him but I am nervous and tired.
