The library of Tortiopel

History
The library at Tortiopel was originally the main library of The Vechasian Empire - known as The library of Vachasia-, located outside of their capital. There the monks of the empire lived, and during the invasian of the turugians they resisted. The ground part of the library was accidentally burned down during the effort to defeat the monks. The deeper part of the library, however, remained undamadged. After the defeat, a monk known as Lamacas took as many books as he could, and fled northwards, establishing the University of Lamacas.

As the city of Tortiopel grew, it grew around the old library. A new building was constructed on top of the underground-remains, and it became the Library of Tortiopel.

For this reason no one know for sure how deep the library is, or know how many books are hidden down there. Several times people have been lost in the library, never to be found again.

During The siege of Tortiopel in 1243, the attackers are known to have infiltrated the library and thus potentially the city, through an unknown tunnel. The remains of soldiers have been found, after they starved to death trying to find a way from the library and into the city.
