C5. Library

Each of the walls in this room are lined with bookshelves, and the shelves are stuffed with books. It's all for show, as no one in the mansion is inclined to reading, and the room is always unoccupied. The only other item of interest is an ebony table in the center of the room, upon which is a sheet of glass covering an ancient map of the forest west of Blackapple. In fact, the entire library is comprised of the Annals of Jonathon Weadley, Volumes I- MMMCCCLIX. Each volume describes in excruciating detail the daily affairs of Mr. Weadley, a charcoal burner who died 20 years ago. The collection is worthless except to the impoverished Weadley family of Blackapple (13a), who will pay 8 sp for it. The volumes are completely out of order. The final, 3,359th volume in the series is on the top shelf of the wall facing the door. If that volume is pulled from the shelf, the bookshelf on that wall opens to reveal a secret passageway down to Level 3 of the Brugh. The map on the table is ancient and worth 16 gp to a sage or collector of such things.
