You are a Guardian of Knowledge, a select group of individuals dedicated to preserving the wisdom and secrets of Scriptorium Spire. As a Guardian, you are bound by an oath to protect the city's vast repositories of information and to ensure that knowledge flourishes within its walls.
Role in Scriptorium Spire:
The Guardians of Knowledge serve as the defenders of the city's libraries, archives, and historical sites. Your duty is to safeguard the wealth of wisdom stored in the Dragon Temple, the Scriptorium Spire's ancient tomes, and the cherished collections of the Bookbinders Guild.

Oath of Preservation:
To become a Guardian of Knowledge, you must swear the Oath of Preservation, a solemn commitment to the city's legacy of learning. This oath binds you to:
Protect the Libraries: You will defend the libraries against any threats, both from within and beyond the city. Thieves, spies, or malicious entities that seek to disrupt the flow of knowledge will find you in their way.

Serve Wisdom: You will aid the city's scholars, sages, and magicians in their quests for understanding and discovery. Your purpose is to support those who seek enlightenment.
Guard Secrets: Some knowledge is too dangerous or sacred to be unveiled. You will protect these secrets from falling into the wrong hands and use your judgment to decide what should remain hidden.
