+ A guidebook for friendly monsters of logic +
A whimsical observatory where reasoning is charted like stars,
and every paradox has a polite, slightly furry caretaker.
Furry, six-eyed, and oddly polite, the Cogitator is the patron monster of inference. It makes its home wherever an argument has at least three premises and one open ending. Feed it counter-examples and it purrs. Feed it certainty and it sneezes.
The Equipoise is shy until it is needed, then suddenly very tall. It carries two glowing pans on its outstretched arms and weighs claims with the patience of a librarian who has seen everything misquoted at least once. It dislikes shouting and unprovable absolutes.
A single curious eye on a stem. The Why-Wisp drifts where a sentence ends in a period that should have been a question. It is genuinely friendly but completely incapable of stopping at the first answer. Travellers say it has never blinked, only re-asked.
