a narrow three-story structure, [Map Room #15, west, west], Lich# 26862, go three-story structure

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 arched doorway and a narrow set of stairs.
Obvious exits: out
note
The books for sale come with one chapter and have some basic functionality. The book's chapter is on 'elemental magic,' the tome's is on 'general spellcraft,' and the volume's is on conjuring'. 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 heavy leather book, a silver-hinged leather tome, a creaky leather volume, a flimsy leather-bound manual, a sturdy canvas-bound manual and a splendid gold-painted manual.

The books come with one chapter and have some basic functionality. The book concerns 'dark magic,' the tome concerns 'necromancy' and the volume concerns 'undead minions'. A flimsy manual (sold in the study) will give your book more personality, and let you add more chapters (the papers, available for purchase). A sturdy manual (also in the study) can then give your book yet more flair. The books in this study have a sinister flair, and only chapters sold here can be added to them.

On the summoning circle you see: a steel-hinged leather book, a glossy vruul-skin tome and a rotting leather volume.
