The Royal Danish Library

Ulrika, now sweaty and irritated, instructed her crew to take a break. They were running on fumes as it was, and as Ulrika considered sending them home for the day they sat at the base of the grand staircase.

After years of dispute and court adjudication, entry to The Royal Danish Library was now possible. The case had been hard fought but finally after 9 years of legal squabbles it was determined that the Library fell under the Ministry of Records jurisdiction. Ulrika, employed by the Ministry, was the first to step within these walls for decades. Her team were performing some initial reconnaissance to determine the viability of restoration. The condition of the interior had not been determined but she was happy that with some work the building could be restored and study could begin.

Before collapse The Royal Library had been one of the largest in the world and perhaps it still was. It contained almost every text ever printed in Danish, a vast store of knowledge that could propel the Freeland forwards. It held historical accounts of the Collapse, literature and art, musical scores from around the world but most important to her, it contained the scientific knowledge to help bring the Freeland into the future.

As her team rested she explored. Some walls had collapsed, a few holes in the ceiling here and there and bookshelves had fallen, their tomes littered over the floor. Thick dust hung in the air and Ulrika continued deeper into the structure, eventually finding what she wanted.

A grand desk sat in the Antechamber of the building, the door barred from the inside. She called her crew over and they began to remove the barricades against the door, perhaps in the days of chaos this had been a sanctuary to some. With the braces removed the doors were opened and sunlight shone against the library directory.

Ulrika wiped dirt and grime from the directory and as her eyes moved down she saw it, "Natural Science".
"Johan, Emitt you're with me. Floor 2. The rest of you you've head home, if you thought today was tough wait until tomorrow begins." Ulrika said that last bit with glee. She was a librarian, and she had finally found her library.

In the Royal library, valuable manuscripts from across Christiania are gathered and preserved. Christiania's researchers will profit.
