There are rumors—false, mostly—about what the Archive can do. Students whisper that if you sleep under the Umbrelloid, you can edit the past. Lovers say you can retrieve a lost word and return to say it true. Criminals concocted darker things: that it can erase guilt if paid in the right kind of thunder. The keepers smile when these stories reach them; they have better things to do than correct rumor.

The most abstract wing, The Fabric, is dedicated to the protectors themselves. It houses the genealogy of the "Umbrellas"—the people who risked themselves to shield others. It is not a hall of heroes, but a hall of servants.

The Umbrelloid receives them all without surprise. It stitches the new weather into its shelves with the same deliberate craft used to bind older storms.
