After moving what little belongings they had into their dilapidated apartment back in the Susukino District, Hanzo and one of his little brothers, Hachidoku, made their way to the fabled Bibliotheca Conscientiae. The library, being world renowned for the depth of its collections, was the perfect spot to look for potential information on their clan, new techniques, and just about a million other subjects. As Hanzo made his way up the steps and into the building he looked above him at the daunting scale of the architecture which had been laboriously constructed a great many years prior. Hanzo let his brother look at the directory and search for topics which garnered his attention. Hanzo, on the other hand, would wander. He would peruse the vast volumes which sprawled like a bustling civilization before him. One by one he sent out his kikai, subtle enough so that nobody would notice.
Hanzo loved to read and write. It was one of the few activities which provided a worthwhile outlet for his imagination. That is not to say that he thought of his pension for daydreaming as a waste of time. This preoccupation with the universe in his head, however, was not easy to convey to others. Reading others' thoughts and seeing how they put their own minds onto the page inspired Hanzo to do the same. He had a leg up on the competition however. He would send his kikai out to survey the landscape, and after he had found five texts which interested him, he would call them back home. Gathering a little intel on his surroundings, he could more easily traverse this elaborate structure not to mention find the quietest spots to read and study. After finding a nice seat, he would then open all five of his texts and set forth devoting his attention to the one which interested him most. He would assign groups of his kikai to 'read' the other works. Of course they could not readily comprehend the words in front of them, but they could relay the raw information back to Hanzo group by group and eventually a complete picture would be produced in his mind.
He could read five books at once, maybe even more though he had not yet tried. Regardless, his kikaichu were sent out and were exploring the vast reaches of the Bibliotheca Conscientiae. Perhaps they would find someplace truly interesting. If they did, Hanzo supposed he could let Hachidoku in on the secret. Unlike Ranmaru, Hachidoku knew better than to disturb his older brother's studious and creative habits.
