[Dialogue] Other World Roots & Archive Jewels

[Marge Philbrook]

As an archivist I also have memories of the past.  I know that all
four paintings were by the same person. I also know that the
reputation was that Mt. Fugi is in all of his paintings.  But what I
don't know is who suggested we use these or who chose the 4 that we
would use. Does any one have any memory of that?  I don't think it
would be written down anywhere.
Carlos Ollison (who is a great artist) drew the four sketches that we
use but I think that was after the four paintings were chosen.
