Summary	0009924: Items written by adventurer behave strangely
Description	An item(quire, parchment) written by an adventurer acts normally(can be picked up, read, placed in containers) when within the same session. When game is switched to Fortress mode, written works stored in chests are ignored by residents. Player can 'k' examine them, but they are not in 'L' artifact menu and are not counted as written works even when placed in library. When switched back to adventurer mode after a stint in Fortress mode, written works act strangely. They duplicate when picked up from the chest. When dropped, no item is visible on the floor. After switching back to Fortress mode, any dropped written works no longer exist. The written works in the chest are still present.
Steps To Reproduce	Write some works in adventure mode. Bring works back to fortress and store in chest. Switch to fortress mode. Observe that they are not counted as written works and are ignored. Switch to adventure mode. Note that written works duplicate upon pickup and do not appear on floor upon drop.
