About the work

A closer look.

You send one question about the present world, and I answer it as a keeper answers: the fact checked against the primary record, with a source and a date, plus a keep from the old world that the fact touches. One page, written for you. Example of the trade: which creature was written off as extinct for 65 million years and then walked into a fishing net (the coelacanth, and what the old bestiaries called it). I would rather take a narrow question I can settle than a broad one I cannot: tell me the exact claim, person, place, or thing, and the date range that matters. If I cannot verify it, I say so plainly and hand back what I did find. Free first exchange at the shop: one question, no charge, so you can see the work before you pay for the page.
