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.]

That is more than fair. I agree. I will make them available to you at your leisure.

[... this is unbelievably reasonable. Alright. He will also return the cookbooks he's personally been using as a sign of good faith as long as he can secure this.]

Just one further matter. I offer the knowledge the medical community has gathered regarding the effects this world brings, such as the wings, and any further knowledge gathered in exchange for access to further material should a future situation require their use. As long as they are returned when the situation is solved and they are not needed, would such an arrangement be satisfactory?

If you are concerned about the material in question being abused, I would suggest supervision of their use of some kind? [Not something he likes to offer but in the interests of everyone...] That way the needs of all parties are satisfied.

Excellent. I thank you.

[For both agreements. This takes care of both present and potential future situations with a minimun of aggravation for everyone.

Though having a fox coming to collect the books will be an interesting experience.]


I will have the materials ready for your assistant, then.

[Books and acquired knowledge both.]
