"Ordinary people keep a journal. Sotha Sil decided to store his memories as star-data in an artificial astronomical matrix keyed to his philosophical musings on the structure of the Aurbis. Of course." —Almalexia
Mnemonic Planisphere

The Mnemonic Planisphere is a memory storage facility in the central Clockwork City. A number of Sotha Sil's memories are stored within the Planisphere in the form of stars. The Truth in Sequence: Volume 11 can be found here. You'll also find a piece of the Precursor Factotum here during the related quest. Fortress Excavators patrol the Radius south of the Planisphere.

The Memories of Sotha Sil is located in the foyer of the Mage's Wing, while The Astronomer's Power is located elsewhere within the section. The Will of Our Mistress can be found in the Hall of the Warrior, next to the back door to the Planisphere. Stealing the Stars is found in the Hall of the Thief.

Layout[edit]

Antechamber[edit]

There are several bookshelves and four Nutriment Dispensers in the antechamber, as well as two side rooms. The room on the right appears to be a study full of desks, bookshelves, and mechanical instruments: to the left of the entrance lies a room with two tables fully outfitted with a set of four chairs each.

Planisphere[edit]

This large, open room is a hub with three doors. You'll find the Astronomer here as well. The Warrior's Wing lies through the western door, the Mage's Wing lies straight ahead in the north, and the Thief's Wing lies on the east end of the room.

Throughout each wing, you'll encounter stars: these contain Sotha Sil's memories, and occasionally speak. Standing within 5 meters of one will suppress your ability to stealth. During the quest, you'll find Corrupted Stars within the three wings.

Factotums are patrolling the corridors of each wing, while Whispering Shadow acolytes tinker with tubes in the modular rooms. The Factotum enemies in the wings are not set: if a Factotum Arbalest is killed, a Factotum Expurgator may respawn in its place. The three wings all share one map.

Warrior's Wing[edit]

The entrance to the wing lies on the west end of the map.

Mage's Wing[edit]

The Mage's Wing encompasses the northern section of tunnels. A copy of The Memories of Sotha Sil is sitting on a platform on the east side of the foyer just as you enter the wing.

Thief's Wing[edit]

The Thief's Wing includes the eastern section of tunnels.
