The Grand Marble Portico of the Library of Palanthas
The Library of Palanthus stretches out before you. A series of ten wide
marble steps lead up to a huge open marble portico, supported and sheltered
by four large white columns. Ancient ivy, well tended, has grown up and
around the columns and front face of the building. Three three-story wings
can be seen, and two other buildings have been attached in recent times. To
the south is the entrance, and to the north lies the street.
You walk inside and are promptly lead to the office of Astinus.
Astinus Office
Dominating the center of this room is a massive birch desk. Legend
claims this desk has supported the thousands of volumes of history Astinus
has recorded. A large pot of ink, a container of sharpened quills, and a
candelabra complete the desks decorations. Small windows line the room,
allowing light to trickle in and gently illuminate the entire room. A
comfortable couch rests against the west wall. Tapestries hang on the walls
between the windows. Shelves line the walls, filled with tomes of the more
recent records of heroes and villians upon the face of Krynn.
The librarian notices you aren't reading anything...
Astinus hands a thread-bare book bound in cloth to an Aesthetic standing by you.
You note the spine bears the word 'Penumbra' scribed in glowing brown ink.
As you glance down at the page you read...
He states simply 'You might start with that one... Or ...', he continues,
The Storytellers of Ansalon, The DragonLance MUD
Astinus points to the massive wall of books behind him
and bids you to make a selection.
