In 1604, Nakamura Nobu created a magical means to increase the number of pages and protect his precious journals from wear and tear. He saw the benefit to yokai-kind and taught any who would learn.
Then in the mid 1650s, Date Hongyou, after becoming frustrated with searching through many decades of notes, created a spell to help the author find the page they are seeking. In the spell is a ward to confuse any reader but the author.
