Oliver was a resident of the Strange and Wonderful House, apparently an artist.
After running out of ink, he once stumbled through “twisting, whispering hallways”, a stack of paper in his hands and pens, quills and paintbrushes filling his pockets, in search of the Ink Wells. Following an eerie chant in a dead language, he makes his way to the giant gate made of golden pens, the room behind it too dark to see anything. Putting a hand on the gate, he caled out for “the Guardian of the Ink Wells”. The gate opened of its own accord, and he fell into the room, where an ominous voice asked what his business is. However, when he explained that he simply needed some ink, the lights flashed on to reveal the Guardian, an unassuming teenage girl dressed in robes and aviator goggles. Gesturing at the giant holes in the cement floor behind her, she told him to help himself to “any of the uncovered wells”, claiming that she had “all colors and liquids”.
