USER: #C1BA57 - THE LIBRARY

[unghost]

( COLOR )

This is Cairngorm.

I've noticed that books have writing in them again, which means the library should be back to it's original form. It'll be more useful to everyone if it's organized and has librarians in charge of maintaining it. I'm used to doing work like that, so I don't mind organizing it, but it might be more time efficient to ask if there are others with the skills to help.

Firstly, we should familiarize ourselves with the restored materials. I've only been able to find useless books about talking animals so far, but one of you must have found something other than that by now. It would take years for me to read everything by myself, so if you could summarize any books you've found and return them to the library, you would save us all some time.

Secondly, has anyone considered keeping record of what's happening here? We should start creating archives for future reference now that we're able to. That's assuming we'll be stuck here for however much longer. There are other things like records of the plants and animals we come across that the library would benefit from as well, if you have any. We should be keeping all information like this in one place.

If you have other things in mind the library should have, or are familiar with any of the texts you find, let me know. I'd like to start working on this as soon as possible.

I've been taking out a book per day, mostly to help me fall asleep at night, but I fear so far they're all the same - children's stories meant to teach morals. A vast, odd collection to be sure.

But keeping a record is a very good idea, and I believe I shall start doing so immediately. I've already been keeping track of people's abilities and talents.

[unghost]

Really? That's all you've been able to find?
It's concerning there's no books about geology or history...
It makes me wonder why the inhabitants before us thought there was no need for any other type of book than this nonsense

Nonetheless, a record like that is already useful. It'd be a good resource considering how different everyone is and how many weird tasks we're asked to do
Would you mind making a copy for the library?

[troubadamsel]

Indeed, it seems we have found more questions than answers. I'll continue reading, just in case, there's a lost treasure.

As for making a copy, I'd be happy to do so. It is my duty to serve all.

[unghost]

That's what I plan on doing too.
I'm hoping that there will be at least something valuable
At first I thought surely not every book could be about the same topic
But with everyone saying that's all they've found its a bit
Discouraging
It's not like there is much else better to do than read though

[troubadamsel]

As frustrating as it is, there must be some reason for it. They must have valued these stories, or perhaps there's a secret in them we're just not seeing.

[unghost]

A secret?
What, like some sort of code?
If they had time to do something that elaborate they probably could have prevented whatever happened to them

[troubadamsel]

It's only a guess, but if I notice anything that would give that theory more credit, of course I'll mention it. Who knows what they were thinking during their final days?

[unghost]

I was hoping we would find some sort of journal or account hidden in one of the books
Someone must have written something other than these stories
I don't feel like we'll ever make progress on what figuring out what happened without an account like that

[troubadamsel]

Perhaps it's merely a matter of completing more quests? They were blank before, perhaps this just a "stage" and the next one will be a sensible answer.

[unghost]

I hadn't considered that.
That would definitely be the best outcome
Even if it means we have to do more of those weirdly specific requests
To me those quests don't seem like they have very much meaning so I wonder why its so significant

[troubadamsel]

It's our best lead right now. As long as we continue them, we're sure to get more answers. Keep your chin up.

[unghost]

I'll try to.
Thanks for the information.

[troubadamsel]

You're very welcome.
