I was thinking about how European monks in the Middle Ages were responsible for reproducing and distributing many of the manuscripts of the time, and it occurred to me that maybe they could not only be the transcribers of knowledge, but the seekers of it as well.Sean Robsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16429301144221551751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7384696295028916937.post-52320523507532211202011-08-30T17:11:55.147-07:002011-08-30T17:11:55.147-07:00I approve.

When I used monks in non-Asian settings, I usually made them inverted sorcerers.
