世界树测量员 中心页

有一种常见的误解，甚至我们当中也会有人这样想，认为被放逐者之图书馆当中有着过去、现在和未来的所有一切。虽然图书馆以其中的知识范围来说的话，确实可以被称为包罗万象，但图书馆的一个迭代可以包含的主题只会是在其所在的那一个世界树分支里的所有可被想象到的范围内。

在我们被焚书人偷走了进入门径的方法之后，这个现实越来越被摆在我们眼前了。确实，我们的图书馆在空间上是无限的，但在特定的一点上，书卷和文本的延伸简简单单地……停止了。只有空无一物的书架。
And with access to the Ways stolen from us by the Bookburners, that reality became more apparent to us than ever. Yes, our Library is infinite in space, but after a point, the tomes and text simply…stop. Only empty shelves to be seen.

几天前，我们收到了一些消息，关于一个特定人物，他被非法关押在一个村镇设施里，有着一种我们从未见过的能力。这个人很可能会成为我们现在无法联系上世界树以及图书馆里知识正逐渐干涸的情况的救星。
A few days ago, we've received some information about an individual, unlawfully caged in the institution of a rural town, with an ability unlike anything we've ever seen. One that could very well be a remedy to both our loss of access to Yggdrasil, and the drought of knowledge within our Library.

你们中的一些人可能会担心我是不是在轻信传言。然而，让我说清楚，如果我没有确信这件事的真实性，我就不会派你们去救出这个人。我还需要再次强调，要谨记我们之前处理类似事情上的失败，就算是我们现在有了可以让我们幸存的仪式。我不希望发生在罗哈斯抄写员身上的事情再次发生。
I realize some of you may be wary of myself putting this much faith in hearsay. Let me be clear, however, that I wouldn't be sending you to liberate this individual if I didn't have the utmost confidence in its truth. And need I remind you of our own failures at solving these problems on our own, even with the surviving rituals we've been able to find. I don't want what happened to Scribe Rojas to ever happen again.

把他们解救出来，这样就可以把他们拉到我们的阵营，让我们的图书馆真正开始繁荣。
Free them, so that we may bring them into our fold, and let our Library truly start to flourish.

一起有组织的劫狱

发生在圣克里斯托弗医院?

据报道该地发生交火，多名入侵者护送该精神康复中心的一名不知名的病人离开。工作人员拒绝对此事提出评论。

FAQ/概述

Q: 这些到底都是啥?
A: 这里是世界树测量员系列的中心页，一个我想了很久的连续剧项目，而现在终于变为了现实。
This is the hub for the Yggdrasil's Surveyor series, a continuity that I've had on my mind for a long while, finally coming to fruition.

Q: 它是关于什么的?
A: 在大多数宇宙当中，蛇之手们可以非常简单地通过门径来往返于Yggdrasil，也即世界树的不同路径之间。
In most universes, the Serpents could simply make use of the Ways to traverse the many divergent paths of the World Tree, Yggdrasil.

但我们聚焦的这个宇宙并没有这么优越的条件。在这个宇宙被发现后不久，蛇之手与GOC之间开展了一场激烈战斗，最终导致图书馆当中这里的航路点被不可修复的损坏了。那些可以帮助修复它们的书呢？则是要么被烧毁到无法进行修复，要么根本就不存在。而其他的跨维度仪式则往往有着不可接受的致命副作用。
But the one universe we're focusing on doesn't have that luxury. Due to a trying battle between the Hand and the Global Occult Coalition shortly after its discovery, this Library's Waypoints have been irreparably damaged. The books that could help fix them? Either burnt beyond salvation or nonexistent. And the other dimensional rituals have unacceptably lethal side-effects.

在圣克里斯托弗精神病院里，一个原本被遗忘的人拥有一种独特但不可预测的能力，这种能力困扰着他的整个人生。
Housed in Saint Christopher's Mental Institution, an otherwise forgettable man possesses a unique but unpredictable ability that has plagued his entire life. In many other universes, they come to the attention of the Foundation, where he swaps one straitjacket with another.

这个宇宙呢? 蛇之手先一步发现了他。在与狱卒们进行了短暂的、幸好不那么灾难性的小型冲突后，他们热切地将得到新名字——“Hopper特工”的他带入了他们的阵营。
In this one? The Hand discovers him first. And after a brief, thankfully less disastrous skirmish with the Jailors, they eagerly bring the newly christened Agent Hopper into the fold.

Hopper特工利用他们潜在的力量来协助蛇之手和被放逐者之图书馆。他们从世界树的其他分支收集尽可能多的信息，一旦他们回到自己的主宇宙，归档员就会把所有的信息汇编成一个次元外的信息索引。这些信息将被进一步分析、推测，并被写进新的书目中，放入图书馆的书架上。
Agent Hopper uses their latent power to assist the Hand and the Wanderers' Library. They collect as much information as they can from other branches of the World Tree, and once they return back to their home universe, the Archivists compile all the information into an extra-dimension information index. These will be further analyzed, speculated upon, and written up into new tomes to be slotted on to the shelves of the Library.

这个系列的重点是世界观设定、书信体叙事、在不同设定间旅行，以及为现有和未来的设定创造可能的新展开点。
The tentpoles of this series are worldbuilding, epistolary storytelling, cross-canon tourism, and the possible creation of new jumping off points for existing and future canons.

Q: 这个设定是所有人都能参与的吗?
当然！我不打算让这个系列对其他作者关闭。事实上，我很高兴地看到它能凭其本身成为一个新设定。我唯一的要求是，你不能写死这个系列里的角色（比如让Hopper死在SCP-2935里），或者不可挽回地搞乱他所访问的设定（比如让他在死者手牌或者未建立设定中建出基金会来）。
Of course! I have no intention of having this series be closed off to other writers. In fact, I'll gladly welcome this becoming a new canon in its own right. My only requests are that you don't do anything to kill off the characters of this series (like have Hopper end up in SCP-2935) or irreparably fuck up the canons he visits (like having him be the genesis of the Foundation in Aces & Eights or Unfounded).
