<p>The busiest section of the library was far and away the wing that had been built to house the massive information dump from Artemis. This took the form of a squat, pentagonal building &mdash; one wall for each race and one for their shared knowledge &mdash; that bored its way deep into the ground, a slow-sloping spiral winding down along the shelves to allow visitors to browse their way back in time until, at the very bottom, only firstrace had any material.</p>
<p>Ey stayed away from this for the day. Ey wanted cozy, not awe-inspiring.</p>
<p>Eventually, having loaded up on a few random finds &mdash; trashy sci-fi, some intriguing contemporary fiction from decades after ey&rsquo;d uploaded, even a bit of furry fiction from early in the 21st century ey considered bringing home to show May &mdash; ey parked emself in the glass garden and arrayed eir finds out before em on the table.</p>
<p>The sci-fi proved to be a little <em>too</em> trashy for eir tastes, and while the contemporary fiction was certainly intriguing, it was far too dense for reading when ey was trying to have a lighter, easier day. The furry book struck a nice middle-ground, at least, even if ey couldn&rsquo;t keep the species straight in eir head.</p>
<p>Eventually, though, ey gave up and just sat in the sun, watching the way it filtered through the glass leaves and branches of the trees.</p>
<p><em>No better way to realize just how tense you are than by relaxing,</em> ey thought. </p>
<p>Ey didn&rsquo;t doubt that the two skunks also would appreciate some time out of the house, too. Doubtless there were some sims they could visit that would be reasonably safe. Douglas&rsquo;s field, End Waking&rsquo;s forest&hellip;well, no longer Arrowhead Lake.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Hi Serene,&rdquo; ey began, starting up the simplex sensorium message before ey lost both the nerve and the train of thought. &ldquo;I know it&rsquo;s been a while since we&rsquo;ve spoken, so I hope you&rsquo;re well. I have a strange question that might turn into a really big request. After some&hellip;very dramatic events, one of our favorite places is no longer safe for us. I guess that&rsquo;s what happens when you just kind of adopt an abandoned sim without knowing much about it.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Still, it&rsquo;s become personally meaningful to us over the years, and we&rsquo;re finding ourselves missing it. I don&rsquo;t know if we necessarily need a copy of it, but would it be possible for you to come take a look at it and see about what all would go into creating something similar? Would be a modification of my home sim. There&rsquo;s no rush, and if nothing else, it&rsquo;d be good to say hi sometime. Talk soon.&rdquo;</p>
