Institute of Lecherous Learning

From Paradisium Wiki

A sprawling educational complex partially buried into the edges of the cavern and stretching deeper yet away from the outskirts, the first building discovered of the complex was discovered when the Market Town Outskirts were mapped, being the Library of Carnal Knowledge, a sprawling library of books maintained by ghostly librarians, and while many of the books are of particularly steamy fiction or scandalous pictures, there are books for the researcher, if they know where and how to look.

History

Years after the founding of the Library of Carnal Knowledge, Lazuli found plans indicating a larger complex then the rather plain library existed. Funding an expedition, she saw the excavation of the 'back' of the library, reveling a more decorative entrance, and directed further digging.

Lazuli had to get help multiple times from adventurers, from having to rescue the dig team, which lead to an open cavern where the Institute Grounds were discovered behind a shield. Institute itself, as well as five strange pillars reaching from ground to ceiling, which were dubbed the Wizarding Towers would not be accessible until a set of crests were recovered, which represented the school, and placed back upon the keystones of the gate and doorway over the building.

A year on, she saw the construction of a smaller building, The Institute Bookstore, which would sell supplies for the students, as well as provide scribing opportunities for low level spell scrolls to reduce the burden from Runar while providing experience and work for some of the students interested in such endeavors.

Recently, exploration has been going on in the Institute Undercroft, a spiraling maze of everchanging rooms and hallways, while little seems to make sense of it, and returning to rooms seems impossible after leaving, one thing has remained consistent, every room, even if it is not clear to those exploring, was once dedicated to teaching or discovery.
