Uncovering the "Whispering Page" (Node 1-2)

After the initial investigation and the defeat of the Corrupted Data Fragments, Yuuka suggests consulting the Library's archival system for similar past incidents. However, the system itself seems to be affected by the anomaly. Noa, with her encyclopedic knowledge of Millennium, points you towards a secluded, rarely used section of the library known as the "Restricted Archives." She speculates that older, less-digitized records might hold clues.

• Location: Millennium Science School - Grand Library - Restricted Archives (accessible via Node 1-2 on the chapter map).
• Objective: Access the Restricted Archives and locate the source of the secondary anomaly.
• Navigation Puzzle: To access the Restricted Archives, you must correctly input a sequence on three ancient terminal consoles. The sequence is hinted at by the titles of three specific books scattered around the main library area of this node. You will need to interact with each book to reveal its title.
  1. "The Logic of the Unseen": Found on a table near the entrance of the main library section of Node 1-2. Look for a faint glow or interaction prompt.
  2. "Echoes of the Forgotten Algorithm": Found on a high shelf in the history section. Interact with the rolling ladder nearby to reach it. The ladder will automatically move you to the correct height.
  3. "The Silent Language of Data": Found on a desk in the quiet study area.
  The correct input sequence for the terminals is the first letter of each book title in order: L-E-S. Interact with the three terminals in the correct order (L, then E, then S) to unlock the path to the Restricted Archives. Failure to input the correct sequence will result in a brief static burst from the terminals, requiring you to re-enter the sequence.
• Key Discovery: Inside the Restricted Archives, you discover a peculiar, glowing page floating in mid-air – the "Whispering Page." As you approach, it emits a soft, almost melodic hum.
• Cutscene Trigger: Interacting with the Whispering Page triggers a cutscene where it briefly projects fragmented images and sounds, hinting at a larger, more complex phenomenon. Yuuka and Noa express concern, realizing this anomaly is more profound than simple data corruption.
