	**This room is huge - a whole floor of the Tower, seemingly carved from the darkest jade. There are tables and work chairs, but no shelves. It's one giant spellbook, with each school's spells (except necromancy) engraved on one of the eight walls in mystical silver runes. It's possible to move the spells from the walls to a work table, and advanced users can even make changes or annotations to them, or add new spells to the collection.		**This room is huge - a whole floor of the Tower, seemingly carved from the darkest jade.
