This crowded, reddish brown world is the current seat of the scholastic order known as the [[Decatalogues of Prol]]. This ninth planet of the "Scrivener's Star" is an ancient seat of the [[Administratum]]. Each of the [[Prol-system|nine planets]] is given over to record keeping, collation, statistical analysis, archiving and the like. Space is running out on Prol IX, leading to a vicious schism within the ranks of the Decatalogues. The '''Centurists''' wish to move to the forbidden [[Prol X|tenth planet]] within the system, whilst the '''Pyratics''' wish to destroy the ancient files stored upon [[Prol I]] and raise new temples of information from the ashes of the old. Violent debate and long, impeccably researched, treatises are being exchanged between the two factions. These written arguments - some as many as one hundred and six volumes long - are not helping the chronic shortage of space.{{Fn|1b}}
