The Librarium, Study

[The Librarium, Study - 28328]
The ground floor of this little structure resembles a study, its many shelves overflowing with aged tomes and scrolls. Within a glass case, three books sit on special display, while on a shelf beside them rest sheaves of neatly organized papers. You also see a narrow set of stairs and an arched doorway.

note
The books for sale come with one chapter on cobbling 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, a creaky leather volume, a silver-hinged leather tome and a heavy leather book.
