Soon(?) after the database there's "The Passions of Dr. X" which tells you to interrogate a Provost. I think it took me a couple of months after that to even see my first Provost, and I'm not sure if the first was sufficient or if I had to ...invite... more than one.
After that, things happened more quickly. Or would have, if I had been in any way eager. By that time I really was no longer in the mood for her silly games.
