The Endless Library
Divine Planar Realm for Tet, the God of Knowledge
While often considered to be the same thing, it is important to note that The Endless Library, while similar to the mythical repository of all knowledge in the universe "The Akashic Record", is not simply another name for it and is its own realm. A realm of massive bookcases and knowledge stacks that spiral up walls, across cielings and even on the floor in shapes and directions that defy the laws of reality, The Endless Library is the sprawling home of the God of Knowledge.
Unlike the Akashic Record, it is curated and maintained by Tet himself, with massive mage towers spiraling into the sky within the library where all who praised Tet in life spend their afterlives, hungrily devouring knowledge at their leisure. With places such as to relax, study, practice magic, and studies for casual reading, The Endless Library is said to go on forever, spiraling back in on itself even when one reaches it edge...it is even said to have gates to all the planes of the Planescape as well, maintained by the God of Knowledge himself as a pact upheld by all whose realms his intersects with.
It is even said that there exists portals to Realms long forgotten or abandoned, other Divine Realms, and all manner of places...though, such excursions are often chaperoned by one of his fragments to ensure the traveling mage behaves themselves.
It is considered a paradise for mages, scholars, and those who spend their lives in search of knowledge...and, while they are different realms, it is said that the God of Knowledge is one of, if not the only being in existence allowed access to the Akashic Record by those that maintain it...a privilege that he is said to extend to his most faithful in their afterlives.
Geography
Due to the unique nature of The Endless Library, the only Geography to note is that which is created by the endlessly spiraling bookcases, shelves, and storage units for more knowledge that make up almost the entirety of the Plane's walls and even ceilings and floors, though in several places across the plane "Up" and "Down" become little more than subjective terms with no real meaning.
It is, however, furnished as one might expect a library to be...and comes equipped with every tool imaginable a mage might need in their studies, research, or experiments. As such, the Plane is decorated with tables, chairs, studies, places to rest and eat, and even massive sprawling laboratories that the denizens can use to carry out all manner of magical and alchemical experiments.
The entire Plane has little concept of gravity or normal geometry, and often one is only limited by their imagination in terms of where they may go while residing here.
Fauna & Flora
The only creatures that call The Endless Library home are the keepers of the Plane that are kept there by Tet, the ruler of The Endless Library, a race of mechanical and metal constructs that silently glide along carrying out the ineffable will of the God of Knowledge himself.
Natural Resources
The only resource one can find within The Endless Library is Knowledge. There is no natural ground, and the only things that grow are grown for experiments carried out by those who reside there.
