→Part 2 Archivum Secretum Apostolicum Avenionensium
There's a librarian. To get a book, you need some kind of written authorisation and a password.
The librarian gives a key that depends on the section.
Most books are chained, so when a chain is broken they know a book have been stolen. Then the librarian knows the names sometimes, sometimes he doesn't.
'''Action : Lock the most sensitive books / books about alchemy somewhere else.''' Not possible, too many of them. '''Action : Ask the Librarian to make a list of all the people he let in in the past month. '''He say he will need some time.
Then he dies of the plague before he is finished.
'''Action : Ask to simply shut down the archives : '''The pope refuses, it's impossible.
'''Action : Change the password system.'''->He will get a very "low security" password and still access the best books by picking/breaking locks.
'''Action : Let one of the players guard the entrance and ask for the librarian to write the names of people goign to the archives.'''-> Books missing. One of the locks have been broken.
No suspicious names in the list of people.
(the name of the valet of the cardinal is in the list but it's normal because the cardinal asked him to go archive some documents, also he goes throuogh the secret passage, so his name doesn't appear too many times)
'''Action : Search everyone leaving the archive'''-> It's actually useless because he hides the books in an alcove and will unload all of them in one night through the window. '''Action that works :'''
'''Action : People need to ask for a document and only the librarian go fetch it then record it.'''
Books still disappear, it's proof that there's another access, secret passage.
==Finding the secret passage==
How to find the secret passage ?
There's dust on the ground, but not nearly enough.
