The Library at Akarnae is an ancient relic of Medora. It was fought over by the mortals of Medora and was thought by many people to have disappeared. However, Akarnae has been built over it and Alex stumbles upon it. It is a sentient building and time passes differently in it. It contains portals to other worlds and exists outside of Medora. In Vardaesia, the Library is compared to time as it just *is* and no one created it.

## Akarnae

The Library was first introduced to Alex when Jordan and Bear brought her to a secret level of the school library at Akarnae, which was full of people doing research. Jordan and Bear then tricked her into entering a room where the floor was covered in chequered squares of different colours, these colours being black, red, blue, Brown, and grey. Uppn closer inpection. Alex determined that the brown squares were, in fact, wooden floor, and the black patches were simply empty space. Each colour had a quality: the wooden squares were safe to stand on, while the grey ones shot into the air and dissolved, every few seconds. The blue spaces would make your legs go numb, and you would fall through the empty patches into darkness. The quality that made this room so appealing to Bear and Jordan was that the squares would change colour irregularly. Each square would pulse a warning beat of light before changing colour. Alex accidentally fell through a black square and landed in an office, where she met an old man called Darrius. She stayed with him for a few hours while she rested from her fall, then went back to her friends, where not a second had passed. She then instinctively summoned a doorway away from the room and right into Akarnae's library's foyer.

It revealed a hallway of doors which opened into more hallways when Aven, Alex and D.C. crossed into it. One of the doors opened into a dungeon, which Aven threw Alex and D.C. into.

## Raelia

Alex's parents (Jack and Rachel) are hidden in a pyramid room in the Library, which simulates an archaeological environment for them.

## Draekora

The Library sends Eanraka to bring Alex to the Library so it can show Alex a vision of the future, should she not stop Aven. The Library then opens a door through time which Alex decides not to go through.

## Graevale

The Library transports Alex, D.C., Jordan and Bear to Nialas and then Alex and Bear to Maroo. The Library is also where Kaiden and Alex have their lessons with Athora and are sent to Tia Auras.

## We Three Heroes

The library is mentioned a couple of times throughout W3H and D.C. and Alex are in it near the end of Crowns and Curses and then Jordan and Alex come out of it at the beginning of Scars and Silence after Jordan gets released.

## Vardaesia

The Library helps Alex get to Vardaesia and Tia Auras (and also to see the sights of Tia Auras), travel back to Medora and put Aven into a painting of Meya, which freezes him in time. He is in a duplicated world of Meya, except nobody lives there except for him so he can't hurt anybody. Zaylin and Alex talk about the Library, and how it wasn't created by the Tia Aurans, it just had always been there.
