this is very interesting, and I haven't even read the whole thing yet. It takes me back to the days when I used to read ancient works and wonder about the mindset of the authors, and marvel at the fact that I could actually read words written by someone who lived hundreds or thousands of years ago. I was especially intrigued by the fact that the Ousentan people seem to gravitate towards this book, and have an opinion on it, almost as if there's a supernatural element, like Lovecraftian forbidden knowledge you can't look away from.
