The Librarium, Study

[The Librarium, Study - 8212623]

In the Common language, it reads:

The books for sale come with one chapter on the many menaces to Wehnimer's Landing and have some basic functionality.

A flimsy manual (sold in the case) will give your book more personality and will allow you to add more chapters (the papers, available for purchase).

A sturdy manual (also in the case) can then give your book yet more personality.

The splendid manuals will give your books the most personality yet.

The books in this study have a scholarly flair, and only the chapters sold here can be added to them.

In the glass case you see: a splendid gold-painted manual, a sturdy canvas-bound manual, a flimsy leather-bound manual, an aged ink-stained volume, a gold-hinged leather tome, and a small celestial blue book.
