**In a conversation with players, [[Germaine]] informs players that he only worked as a mechanic on [[the Space Station]] and had little to do with the prison operation on the station. He also said that he had been in space "as long as he could remember" and that his last known ship before the Space Station was the [[CS Sparrow-]] (incomplete name). Germaine confirms that he is, in fact, a human. [[Vanessa Moore]] says that she does not converse with [[Researcher Lane]] or any other researcher as their branches "have not been connected yet."

**[[King Cloudius]] opens up more about the electric dragon [[Levina]], who he says is smaller but more vicious than Ralnthar, moved extremely fast with an electric field around her, and that her current whereabouts are unknown.

**Vanessa Moore tells players in chat how she found a file containing information about Germaine's introduction to the Space Station. She says Germaine arrived at the station as the sole survivor of the ship ''C.S. Sparrow'', but that there is no official documentation about the existence of a Germaine Hoang. The entire ship interior was covered in blood when discovered, but scans and interrogations of Germaine revealed no information about how that happened. There are rumors of how that happened, which Vanessa Moore does not necessarily believe: a creature "made of stars" entered the ship and killed everyone but Germaine, the ship was boarded and Germaine hid, or that Germaine ate everyone on board. She asks players to be discreet about sharing this information. 
**Germaine returns and robbie1776 abruptly confronts him on these rumors. Germaine deflects and does not answer, leaving the conversation shortly thereafter. Vanessa Moore chides robbie1776 for asking Germaine about the rumors. 
**Robbie1776 confronts Vanessa Moore about her defense of Germaine, considering the situation to be suspect. Vanessa maintains her defense of Germaine and points out that there were no confirmed victims in the ''C.S. Sparrow'', as Germaine was apparently the only identified individual on the ship when it was found. Vanessa also shares that she herself has been in a situation as the sole survivor of a mission where all others were considered missing in action, and that rumors were probably shared about her. Her reasoning for maintaining Germaine's defense is that she hopes others would not be as cruel to him as they apparently were to her, but she says she cannot control any of the people witnessing this conversation.   
*'''November 1''' Germaine takes Vanessa Moore's radio and asks players in chat to help him find some items: a dandelion, honeycombs, a Bottle of Elasa, and Tears of a Star. After finding the items in various location on Parallel, the players give them to Vanessa Moore, who Germaine needs the items for a machine he found a blueprint for. Vanessa says that the Golden Blooms from the Cube Dungeon act like a library for stories from the past, present, and future, and that eventually her machine in her house will be able to read them.

**The [[NPC Lore Q&A]] is hosted in the Parallel Prime Spawn Town Ampitheater. Most major and minor lore characters (including Ralnthar, represented by a speaker connected to his cave) participated.

**King Cloudius retells the story of how [[Levina]] attacked the Sky Kingdom when he was young, where before decimating the kingdom, the dragon told the citizens a cryptic message: "Worlds within worlds, you cannot hide. Separate, but not lost, you all will die.” Cloudius then says that rather than dying in the lightning dragon's attack, he felt an innate power that dulled the attack and infused him with the power of lightning. In reference to the [[Siege of the Sky Kingdom]], Cloudius says that he tried to use his lightning power to stop Ralnthar but, for reasons unknown to him, the lightning was not effective against the fire dragon.<ref>[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MZoypdDaVQb1DQJSvfb0UHNcsRL0tjw8K_ab9rF1Es0/edit Transcript] of the Parallel NPC Q&A,  Page 22</ref>

**Niall makes his reappearance at the conclusion of the Q&A. He reveals that he disappeared earlier in the spring of 2022 because he wanted to harvest a material that served as an effective conductor for his laboratory experiments.<ref>[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MZoypdDaVQb1DQJSvfb0UHNcsRL0tjw8K_ab9rF1Es0/edit Transcript] of the Parallel NPC Q&A, page 34</ref>

*'''November 30, 2022''' After Niall's return to the Observatory in Otherside, a player investigates a chest in the satellite room labeled "for Niall's eyes only." The redstone dust in the chest appear to outline the numerals "1 4 1," which may be a reference to [[Lab Worker 141]], an individual who left a note in the [[Space Station]] regarding a fungal outbreak in May of 2022.

[[Buddy]] also got stuck with Shaun in the cave, and after player rescue the two of them Maggies rewards the group with diamond blocks.
**Inside an alcove of the cave, players found a notebook from someone who stayed in the cave (most likely Niall). The transcript is [https://wiki.parallelmc.org/wiki/Lorebooks#Mesa_Cave:~:text=Mesa%20Cave%5B,At%20all%20costs. here.]
**Players return to the Otherside Spawn Town, where King Cloudius welcomes them back and announces the features of the new [[Towns]] system. Maggie then announces her new batch of [[charms]] is available at her shop.

**A mysterious voice interrupts in-game chat by saying they're "back again in this wretched world", looking for someone ("she") "in this dimension or one adjacent."
**The voice also refers to another person ("he"), saying that he's also near and one day they will reunite.
**The voice then calls out about an unknown group (likely [[The Keepers]]) saying "their name is a lie... they keep nothing... nothing but fear," then the voice says that they "cross dimensions" and can "..feel her power... her remnants... electric"
**Researcher Lane detects that the voices are coming from nearby [[The Space Station]] in Parallel Prime. After manning mission control, Jess detects Hawking radiation emitted nearby the Space Station.
**Players, Lane, and Germaine board the space ship and arrive at [[Outer Space Prime]], noticing scattered asteroids, debris, and ships nearby the Space Station that were not there previously. Thus marks the opening of Outer Space Prime as a region for exploration, with players searching for secrets in the space objects nearby the station.
**Players and Lane eventually find the source of the voice- a dormant black dragon that introduced himelf as [[Laeros]], surrounded by a force field preventing anyone from coming close. He reiterated his desire to find "her" and a "them," warning that "we cannot be kept apart forever."
**After leaving Laeros to remain dormant, players go on to explore space. Several planets, ships, and asteroids containing lore books have been discovered to date.
