Pillars of Pedagogy

Seekers engage in quiet study and research within this austere cluster of closely huddled, flat-topped towers of varying heights. Each tower contains private rooms, available by reservation only, that feature permanent silence spells, allowing their occupants to read without disturbance.
Most research conducted by seekers happens in these towers. Seekers at the Pillars must rely on their Avowed guides to retrieve or return specific works from the Great Library to assist with their research. Most seekers never pass through the Emerald Door into the library proper.
One specific study room of note, was the preferred study room of the Sage Matreous, and before him, the great Fistandia. This room has a hidden portal allowing access to Fistandia's Mansion via the Entry command word "SCEPTER" and the Exit command word "LIBERTY".  This room was also the place where Matreous drew his final breaths as an Imp Figurine came to life and attacked him. Later, the party defeated that same imp after traversing the mansion to discover its secrets at the now-ironic request of Matreous.
