Wahim's Story Message

You have shown that you do not shy away from hard work, but to truly know the Discipline of Architecture, you must be able to command projects beyond what you can do with your own hands. A true architect can marshal others to assist with the work, building what no individual can.

However, by next challenge for you is not to build a great monolith - I have a more refined challenge for you: Build a Library and convince others to fill it with their knowledge. If your Library is one of the most complete in the land, then you will pass my Test and yours shall be known as one of the Libraries of Alexandria!

Library

Built on a Medium Construction Site

Books for your Library

Once you have built your library you can start filling it with books. To do this simply click on the library and click "Author Book". You may add the first one yourself if you wish but after that other people must add them until such time as the library expands. It is, as yet, unknown when the library expands but I suspect it will be at the 14 book level (This is what the principle requires).

Each book costs:-

So, whether it is you or someone else adding a book - simply have the mats in your pocket and click on the library in question, and click "Author Book".

NB: This test brings with it a new "Achievement"; "Author A Book".
