## Book Collections

#### Song of Lumopolis

> A tome that supposedly was once housed in a Lumopolis Temple. Due to the obscure and esoteric contents, it was never released for public readership. After reappearing from a mysterious, century-long absence, it was transcribed and distributed en masse and became a well-known title by all.

### The Lost Secret Territory

> This book concerns itself with the partial history of the Demi-humans' homeland, the Secret Territory, including its foundation, its fall from prosperity due to Eclipsite incursion, and its ultimate occupation by said Eclipsites. Through this book, we can gain a general understanding of the tragedy that befell hundreds of years ago, as well as deepen our understanding of our world's current power structures.

### Nameless Mercenary's Notes

> An unnamed mercenary's record of their grueling career as a fighter-for-hire, as well their efforts to establish a personal team of mercenaries. The year in which the journal was written is unknown, but it appears to be fairly modern. Only the months were included in the titles of each entry. The handwriting is neat and easy to read, and a hint of optimism can be read between the lines.

### Dream's Covenant

> A kind of dream, a kind of howl, a kind of hopelessness. Full of unresolved grievances of an ancient time, as well as bizarre anxieties about the future... But what truly makes everything dull and meaningless, is that this book is nothing more than an inferior imitation. Despite our most earnest efforts to understand, nothing can come close to truly describe that great, ancient, and dormant Truth.

### Rediesel Recipe

> Part-time traveler and full-time foodie, the Iron Chef of the Rediesel Desert, and connoisseur of Eclipsite meat—that's me in a nutshell! If you find yourself lost in the desert, you're either really brave or really stupid, but don't worry, cause as long as you have Uncle Johnny's recipe book on you, your last meal won't be spent eating sand! That stuff's hard to get out of your system, you know? Hahaha! You silly bird!

### Northland Geographica

> Not many know that, aside from being the Lumopolis Guide, Ms. Blanc is also an avid traveler and a talented tour guide (though her exclusive guided tours are only for her closest, most respected guests). We had the pleasure of interviewing Ms. Blanc, and this book is a compilation of the topics discussed. Customers who have pre-ordered this book at any of our affiliated bookstores will receive a special Ms. Blanc postcard, and 10 lucky buyers will receive an autographed postcard as a gift.

### Doomsday Chronicles

> The Doomsday Chronicles is a compilation of written records said to be from the ancient civilizations that inhabited the periphery of Northland. After it was originally unearthed, researchers concluded that the extensive damage to the records was deliberate, and not the result of the passage of time. Fortunately, several passages in the tome were in relatively complete condition. The fragmented passages seem to prophesize an apocalyptic catastrophe...

### Unknown Ancient Tomes

> It is said that the Unknown Ancient Tomes were written by the first Chief of Science and Truth of Illumina. It was the compilation of years of scientific and technological research on the ancient civilization, and countless experimental logs that are now lost to the ages. With the departure of this Chief, the Unknown Ancient Tomes were also nowhere to be found. Presently, only a fraction of the knowledge found within the Tomes can be found in circulation, though its authenticity is frequently brought into question.
