Klein looked at Hobart, who was studying the stone slabs on the ground. He remembered Hobart mentioning at the Tarot Club that the first "Blasphemy Slate" had occasionally appeared during the Second Epoch and frequently appeared before the public during the Third Epoch. Yet after the Great Cataclysm, there seemed to be no further records concerning the "Blasphemy Slate."
