Also, <span class="mu-s">everybody</span>, keep in mind this facility is full of over-eager material science students. All these bridges and platforms and pulleys connecting buildings?
You can pull the wires or turn the cranks or nudge some of the railing. A <span class="mu-s">Stamina Action</span> re-orients a bridge section or shifts it to expand and contract. You can even pull in new platforms.
>[1Sta] adjusts up to 3 tiles of bridge-platform. This entire facility is pretty flexible. Must be because they work on so many different things.
Just . . . Be <span class="mu-s">careful</span> - it's all <span class="mu-s">wood</span>, for a <span class="mu-s">reason</span>. Iron and Stone and Steel are good materials, but they don't have memories of their own. I've heard Theurge-artificers use wood to dampen natural volatility, mitigate minor wrack-strain. Must be the same here - this entire library functions as an enormous floating absorber of stray release energy. The ocean absorbs most of it and any that soaks into the wood and buildings tends not to Twist or find root.
Good design. It's, just, uh, a <span class="mu-s">little</span> flammable. Still, I think they treated most of the wood AND the ocean is right there so it'd take some doing to burn everything down. Which...
I just realise what I said out loud PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT BURN DOWN THE PRICELESS collections of knowledge in this place! I know we're here to do a job and YES the Luperni are rude at the best of times but it'd be doing a disserve to every reader in the world if we went all arsonist on one of the grandest collections of research material in this hemisphere.
Anyway, what was I saying? Right. Wood resists Strain and the Water abates and ... Hey, Rion, didn't you wonder...
