Dear Laura,
I have noticed that recently that the Hand that takes care of me is not around much anymore. When he is, he complains about a "community" dying out. What does he mean?

Dear Sad Norn,
The legend says that, outside of our universe, a community made up of hundreds of different Hands exists. Often they will communicate with each other in order to socialise, share new developments, or to exchange tips on how to take care of their Norns... allegedly. However, like many of these Hands, it could be that yours has gone off to ?University? (a mysterious, Learning Computer for Hands) which means he can?t check up on Albia as much as he used to. This isn?t necessarily a bad thing though. Whilst he?s away studying, you and your fellow Norns can do whatever you please! You can raid the honey pots, without being nagged to go and brush your teeth afterwards, ride those creaky old lifts until they buckle from the strain, or even race some Albian Carrot Beetles for sport, placing bets in carrots. However, be assured that your newly-educated Hand is likely to return during the mid-term holidays, so be sure to have the place tidied up before then.
