sanctum Cogitabundae



"What? Oh, another visitor. Please, come in! You'll have to excuse the mess - the servants refuse to come in here anymore, and I really don't have the time to clear up. However, I'm always more than happy to provide information about the Artes Magicae.

"No! Don't touch that! It's very delicate - it took a year for me to get it balanced like that! You'd better sit down. No! Not there! You'll squash my familiar! You'd better sit over there, on that stool. Just put those parchments on the floor. Yes, and the tortoise. I wondered where she'd got to.

"Right, I suppose I'd better start again. I'm Cogitabunda filia Plagigerulus, of House Bonisagus. As you know from the Code of Hermes, it is our duty to perform research for the good of the Order, and to disseminate that information amongst its members. Well, my research is on the theory of magic itself, especially the manifestations of the Gift. I don't have the teaching powers of my collegue Alexander Scriptor, but please, if there's anything that you'd like to know, just say."
