The Infinite Repository

The largest library in the city and a temple to Athesne.   The vast majority of the library, and temple, is accessible to all who enter. Respect for the books, and those who tend them, is of the utmost importance but none are turned away who seek knowledge. The temple's Scholars are always available to assist any who need it... and to keep a close eye on those wandering the vast collection of books.

Purpose / Function

The Infinite Repository serves as a place to keep knowledge of all types, both magical and mundane, though one must gain special access to knowledge of a magical nature.

Architecture

Public Access

The library has vast, open halls surrounded by beautifully carved wooden bookshelves, spiraling staircases, and floor upon floors of books. There are many tables to sit and study at.  

Restricted Access

Behind a gate and a manned desk are the books of a magical nature, as well as those that impart knowledge that perhaps not all should have open access to.  

Sapphire Vaults

Hidden within the Infinite Repository is access to the Sapphire Vaults, where all of the most powerful, and dangerous, books are kept. Very few even know where the entrance is, let alone can gain admittance.

Defenses

Scholars of varying degrees of rank are always near by, as well as Seekers who are deep in their own studies. The Infinite Repository also has five Archivists who aid in keeping in library running efficiently, and ensures the protection of the books. What magical defenses there may be are unknown, and few would ever dare to test them.
