[Translator’s note: Sadly no completed chapter for this lamina was found amongst the author’s papers, only a short page of notes written after an apparent mishap, which we present here in its stead, in as equivalent form to the original notes as possible. Due to extensive shorthand and hurried penmanship these notes have been particularly difficult to decipher.]
crystal lattice · cataloguing nested/overlapping ontologies, universally each [illegible]

“essentialists” · material cause, formal cause, efficient cause, final cause · answering “why?” for each
unlocking/understanding & grouping by surface [illegible] filament: [unknown glyphs]
visual distortion effect · imagine folding paper · this is the topology [illegible] & so maps differently here
STORAGE · only what they lack, perfect handling, they will study it
things they won’t store
defense against treasure hunters · obscurity & size
