Quick Answer

In the Library, speak with Professor Lucas, return downstairs near the fireplace desk, then inspect Section VI on the nearby shelf. Hold L2 to concentrate and R2 to analyze the clue.

How To Reach Professor Lucas

After the scene changes to the Library, go upstairs and speak with Professor Lucas. This conversation frames Clio's search and points you back into the room instead of sending you to a new area.

Where To Find Section VI

Return downstairs to the desk by the fireplace and speak with the Professor again. From that area, look left toward the bookshelf sections marked with Roman numerals. The target is VI.

How To Use Concentration

Hold L2 while looking at Section VI. When the clue is highlighted, hold R2 to analyze. This is the main interaction pattern for the Library puzzle.

Where The Book Is

The clue points toward ancient writing systems and languages. Stay near the Professor's table and the Section VI shelf instead of searching the whole Library.

What Happens Next

After the Library clue, the prologue moves toward Aaron Long-Smith's Amsterdam 2000 sequence. Follow the linear route and inspect the hotel room objects to continue.
