'Wyrmwood Library' is a runaway part of the Great Library. It consists of the most unruly books - those who resent being categorized, books that have run away from their masters, and others who simply prefer the atmosphere and milieu of free thought and discussion fostered by Wyrmwood's special status.
On the library's shelves, in its chairs and simply floating in the air, you can find books on the most diverse subjects, having discussions of philosophy, magical theory, physics and politics. Within the library's walls no subject is beyond discussion, and so the occasional fight is to be expected.
In order to maximize storage, the library's walls, floors and ceilings are covered in bookshelves, and gravity bends so visitors can access all areas via the hardwood paths between shelves.
