User:Zone Descriptions Project/The Grand Anatheaum

When Jayla set up her domain, she sought to establish the greatest centre of learning in all of Dalaya. In this she succeeded so that for the last millenium beings of all races flock to her plane in pursuit of knowledge and learning. Her library has over 500,000 books and scrolls with many unique items. In fact, it is said that there is a copy of every book ever written to be found here.

Shortly after the Fall there was a schism between her followers: they split into the lorekeepers, who value knowledge over everything, but remain neutral and do not put the knowledge to use, and the seekers, based in Erimal, who strive to put the knowledge they gained to use in the fight against Kaezul.

Jayla and her followers are dedicated to describing the past and the present in order to better understand the future. To this end they seek a diverse range of artifacts and relics from the past as well as seemingly mundane and trivial records of present commercial activities.

Her lorekeepers and archaeologists prize knowledge above all else, even their own lives, as demonstrated by the heroic actions of Lorekeeper Cerren in pursuit of a book in Dragon's Necropolis.
