Background

The Librarian uses the main floor of the Great Library for housing his research and items he has stolen from various parts of the world. He stores stolen manual pages of previous Ruin Seekers inside of glass capsules. He stole the Swamp's gate device and connected it to a makeshift tomb as a power source. He decorates the room with green hook-tongue banners, the decoration and symbol used by the Frogs of Frog's Domain; he likely took it around the same timeframe he stole the green key from its Southern Vault.

The Librarian has written various information about the world upon 6 different chalkboards.

Great Library Chalkboard Textures.png

Chalkboard 1
Diagram of an Admin, a repurposed Admin, and a teacup. The strip at the bottom is the design for the connecting tomb conduits that glow purple.
Trunic: ADMIN

The Librarian repurposed an Admin into a walking tea table, as seen in the lounge of the Great Library.

Chalkboard 2
Diagram of a broken Autobolt, a functional Autobolt, and a functional Autobolt.
Lower-left Trunic: FORK
Lower-right Trunic: TURRET

Chalkboard 3
Diagram of a tomb, a conduit connecting it to a gate, and an interior look of a Fossil of Self inside of a tomb.
Trunic: POWER?

Chalkboard 4
Diagram of the shivering ring, and a list of the three keys and their locations.
"I. Siege Engine [skull]
II. ✓
III. ??? BELOW?"

A skull is drawn next to I's red key, because the Siege Engine is too scary for The Librarian to fight. II's green key has a checkmark because The Librarian already owns it. He theorizes that III's blue key might be below the earth, which is a correct assumption, as it is located in the Rooted Ziggurat.

Chalkboard 5
Diagram of an entombed Fossil of Self.
"TUNIC FUSE COMPONENTS
- STORE POWER
- [unintelligible] SINGULARITY
- TOMB?? [skull][skull]??"

Chalkboard 6
Two diagrams of something that resembles an SNES cartridge.
Upper-right Trunic: THE UNIVERSE
Lower-left Trunic: HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW

The Librarian discovered that the universe resembles the shape of an SNES cartridge.

The Librarian boss subtitle:

  • "The thieving scholar who seeks the Cross but does not understand"

The Librarian dialogue:

  • "Here to gloat? ... Idiot."
  • "You did it. You released THE HEIR, and now this."
  • "Now you must either DEFEAT it and take its place,"
  • "or find the HOLY CROSS and share its wisdom."
  • "... Good luck with that."

  • "[skull][skull][skull] Take [hexagon key]? [skull][skull][skull]"
