The Athenaeum
In The Athenaeum, you play as the Lorekeeper of a mysterious place called 'The Athenaeum' where patrons seek knowledge but often don't find what they need or are looking for themselves (conflicting information). It's your job to help resolve these conflicts while navigating this changing and sometimes frustrating environment. A complete example session is included in the final page, along with basic equipment such as a journal/place to write, cards of different colors representing options available at certain points during play
