Description summary:
The description varies based on your level of 
Lead: Ecology.
| Lead: Ecology | Description |
|---|---|
| 530 | […]a library near the Sere Palace[…] contains[…] every dream of the attendants who once lived there. […]you comb through these archives[…] you catch glimpses of the life of the mind of the Second City, and what it thought its animals were when they roamed Parabola. |
| 531 | […]an infernal storehouse, emerged from the silt since Jericho locked the waterways. Within its mouldering carapace, you find old laws and broken edicts – on what was, what is, and what could be. In all instances, a fracturing of light is required. |
| 532 | The Forgotten Quarter hides many secrets[…]. You prowl that fog-haunted desolation, retrieving scrolls and tomes, letters, diaries and gold-scribed breviaries[…]you uncover something of the design of the Motherlings: that growth is best measured fractally. |
| 533 | There is no greater expedition than one you can mount within[…]your own library[…]you happen upon some scribbled notes, the conclusions of which are simply genius.[…]the author left nothing by way of identification. It's not plagiarism to borrow from yourself[…] |
