Archivist Owlpede tried to make replacements!
Patrons! Your friendly Archivist Ayman here with an announcement: our beloved Library has been ransacked by the Magpies! They have stolen our books, our scripts, our drawings, and more. They slipped in through the new wing of Ways we just introduced and managed to get past the Docents undetected. It seems Library Staff may have been just a bit too busy reorganizing our shelves…
Do not be alarmed though! I handed my deskmate Owlpede some crayons and he did some fantastic work making us some replacements for our posters and pamphlets in the meantime. Additionally, I've dispatched Pages to find the books that were stolen and to leave notices on the shelves noting that the disappearance has been recorded and is being looked into.
If you find one of your books has been taken, do not fret! We will find them and we will assure you that this won't happen again!
Details on what all has been changed can be found below:
- Night Fishing by Stygian Blue
- A Story About Stars by Doctor Pann
- Playing Pretend by IronShears
- Honeyed Be Thy Name by Snapdragon133
- Cave Story by Lt Flops
- Are You Here by Piano_WL
How to include
To take part in WL's 2022 April Fools event, include this theme on your page by adding the following code at the top of the page:
[[include :wanderers-library:component:stolen-theme]]
Secondly, use the paper div to write your own custom missing notice for your tale.
Theme Components
[[div class="paper"]]
Your missing notice goes here! It can be themed however you'd like, but if you're stuck, you can use what Ayman mentioned above as inspiration. Magpies stole things from the Library, Pages have been leaving notices on the shelves where the books are normally stored noting what book was taken, what it was about, and that the disappearances are being looked in to.
Alternatively, you can also have Owlpede (or another staff member) write a "replacement" version of your tale. This again can be themed however you'd like, but the idea is to be a rushed and probably not as nice copy of your original tale. It just depends on how much time and effort you'd like to put into your April Fools activities!
[[/div]]
An alternative horizontal rule is available as well if the "-----" is enclosed in a "fancyhr" class div, like so:
[[div_ class="fancyhr"]]
-----
[[/div]]
Resulting in this:
[[div_ class="fancyborder"]]
content goes here

Articles that took part:
Many articles were stolen by the Magpies, but some authors added a little something extra to their notices. Those who did are listed below:

What appears to be a newer sketchbook sits on the table in front of you- wait a moment. The sketchbook is gone! Instead, you find a lonely notice on the table in front of you.

As a side note, the bees are furious. Maybe stay away from the Captain's Shelf today?

Additionally, when the Magpies stole this one book, it seems they may have accidentally squished one of the local Masked Canines in the process. Owlpede's rendition of the creature is attached below. If anyone can get a hold of its owner, please also send them my way.

Notice:
We are aware of a recent a recent string of thefts in the Library. Many books have gone missing from their shelves, and this piece is no exception. Rest assured we are doing all we can to recover any stolen materials. Those responsible for this incident will be dealt with accordingly.
However, I would be remiss if I did not clarify the situation for this particular piece. This story was not stolen, rather this specific book was eaten. A particular rotund, furry patron ate this story in its hunger during the commotion earlier. We are working hard to print up a replacement, though this story may not be available for some time. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Below is a drawn depiction of the patron in question-based off the descriptions given to us by eyewitnesses. If you come across it, please notify your nearest Page or Docent. We of the library staff do not condone the consumption of our own reading material, thank you.
