Gnomic Utterances. These are traditional, and are set at the head of each section of the Guidebook. The reason for them is lost in the mists of History. They are culled by the Management from a mighty collection of wise sayings probably compiled by a SAGE—probably called Ka’a Orto’o—some centuries before the Tour begins. The Rule is that no Utterance has anything whatsoever to do with the section it precedes. Nor, of course, has it anything to do with Gnomes.

Date: 2012-03-25 05:37 pm (UTC)There must be other works of fiction in which we slowly realize that the protagonist with whom we've been identifying might be on the wrong side of things, but none come to mind. (A couple of interactive fiction games do, though one isn't really an example and the other is...excellent but not something I'd recommend.)
