My, there are so many interesting places to see here... has anyone found a library by chance?

A library of Babel would somehow fit the theme of this place.

I've never heard of Babel. Would you tell me about it?

You haven't? It was believed that a group of people tried to build a tower named Babel to the heavens, but failed when they suddenly could no longer understand each others language.

I use the term "library of Babel" to mean a library where nothing can be read. I'm merely being fanciful.

The world is vast, after all. I don't pretend to know about everything in it. That is a very interesting myth, though.

Many in my world believe it to be true; it is part of a religious text.

Not at all.

But belief is power.

[Ah. See, she wants to claim that knowledge is a better power, but... there's this crew she loves to pieces so... Hm. Must not blow cover either way.]

Belief and willpower.
