Chapter One - The Library Dictator [Video]
[Now that things seem to have gone back to relative normalcy here in the land of Luceti, Wan Shi Tong decides that it is time to introduce himself to the community. Thus there will be a video feed of a very tall owl as he stands over his journal.]
Greetings citizens of Luceti, I am Wan Shi Tong, he who knows ten thousand things.
Due to my abduction from my own world and library, I have commandeered the one within this village. I will be the sole authority of the collection from this point on, and as such, there are a few new rules.
First of all, anyone who wishes to use the library must first offer new knowledge to add to the collection.
Secondly, none of the material within can be used for malicious intent. There is no exception to this. I do not care how noble your cause may be, whether it is against each other or our captors here.
Finally, I will no longer allow any materials to be removed from the building.
If these rules are not followed, there will be consequences.
Also, in regards to the last rule, all outstanding books and media must be returned for inventory. If you do not comply, I will send my assistants to retrieve them.
That is all.
[And with that the feed will end.]

Someone who doesn't know a thing about fighting gets drafted into a war. They're forced to go, and they can't just find places to hide. They're pushed out to fight, even if they don't even know how to throw a punch.
The library's a crowded place, so they can't just look at one of the self-defense books and practice there. They'd have to go to some place like the barracks. Would that person not be able to take that book there?

I understand your point.
[But he is conflicted.]
This may take further consideration.
[At least he's willing to think about it.]

[...]
I can't promise there isn't going to be any retaliation or anything. The library is free knowledge for a lot of people, and to have it restricted is going to make them mad. You understand that, right?
[He says it calmly; he's not here to start a fight or cause a fuss. He just knows that there are definitely some people he sees on here who will rise up against this, one way or another.]
