  | colspan="2" align="center" style="font-size:110%; padding:10px;" | A magical barrier originally protected this library from mouse invasion until recently. Bands of magic and mechanical mice have circumvented the library's security measures in an effort to destroy the research Zugzwang once worked so hard to document.
 
|}
 
{{-}}
 
 
 
== Overview ==
 
The [[Crystal Library]] is a location in the [[Rodentia]] region requiring a minimum rank of [[Lord|Lord or Lady]] and a [[Crystal Library Card]] to enter. Mice in this location may steal points, gold, or multiple pieces of cheese if not captured.
 
 
 
The [[Crystal Library Card]], required for entry to the [[Crystal Library]], can be obtained from '''Knight''', '''Bishop''', '''Rook''', or '''Queen''' mice in [[Zugzwang's Tower]].
 
 
 
All mice found in the [[Crystal Library]] (except the [[Crown Collector]]) are part of [[Zurreal's Breed]].  All mice found here are weak to [[Physical]] and [[Tactical]] weapons.
 
 
 
The [[Crystal Library]] offers Hunters the opportunity to undertake [[Library Assignment]]s in order to earn rewards and [[Library Points]].
 
 
 
===Heads-Up Display===
 
The [[Crystal Library]] HUD displays the Hunter's current [[Library Points]] total and a button that reads '''Get Assignment''' when the Hunter is not working an assignment, and reads '''Researching!''' when the Hunter is working an assignment.  Clicking this button shows the complete list of available [[Reasearch]] and the requirements necessary to accept the assignment.
 
 
 
==[[Library Assignment]]s==
 
A [[Library Assignment]] is a set of research tasks that Hunters ranked [[Lord|Lord/Lady]] and above, and with access to the [[Crystal Library]], can do to earn rewards based on the assignment being completed. [[Library Points]] are awarded for each completed assignment and are required to start more advanced assignments.
 
 
 
To start an assignment, Hunters must travel to the [[Crystal Library]] and click on the '''Get Assignment''' button on the HUD. Each assignment has specific requirements the Hunter must meet to be able to accept it. Hunters may only have one assignment open at a time.  The Hunter's current assignment may be found on the [[Special]] tab, under '''Scrolls, Posters, Assignments'''. To discard an assignment (and, with a few exceptions, lose all progress made) Hunters can smash it using their [[Hunter's Hammer]].  They will be rewarded with [[Nothing]] and must wait 1 hour before they can accept another assignment.
 
 
 
===Tracking Library Assignment Progress===
 
On the traditional user interface, the Hunter's current assignment shows as a '''Task''' window over the trap set-up image on the left side of the '''Camp''' page. The window shows the first uncompleted step of the assignment. Clicking on the window opens a pop-up display that shows the steps of the assignment and the Hunter's current progress.
 
 
 
On the '''FreshCoat''' user interface, the Hunter's current assignment can be accessed by selecting the '''Quests''' tab, which is found over the [[Hunter's Journal]]. Opening the '''Quests''' tab shows the steps of the assignment and the Hunter's current progress.
 
 
 
==Capturing [[Zurreal the Eternal]]==
 
[[Zurreal the Eternal]] can only be attracted and captured if Hunters have the [[Zurreal's Folly]] trap armed and a [[Scholar Charm]] equipped. No other trap set-up will allow the Hunter to capture [[Zurreal the Eternal]].
 
 
 
===Obtaining [[Zurreal's Folly]]===
 
Hunters must obtain 900 [[Library Points]] before they will be able to accept the [[Zurreal Trap Research Assignment]], which they must complete in order to obtain the items necessary for crafting [[Zurreal's Folly]].
 
 
 
====[[Zurreal Trap Research Assignment]]====
 
''This envelope contains an assignment to research a trap capable of capturing Zurreal the Eternal. The Trap's concept is simple: Tempt Zurreal close by displaying a collection of rare knowledge then drain all magical and electrical energy from the area to disable his walking throne. Although the design is straight forward, gathering the rare and unique items required will prove itself to be a challenge! Good luck brave hunter, the safety of the [[Crystal Library]] relies on your success!''
 
 
 
'''Requirement:''' 900 [[Library Points]]<br/>
 
''Travel across the Kingdom in search of supplies to build a trap capable of disabling Zurreal the Eternal's walking throne long enough to capture him. Such a trap will need some very unique materials to draw all magical and electrical energy away from Zurreal while remaining powered itself.''
 
 
 
'''Tasks:''' Complete all ten of the following tasks
 
*Collect 1 [[Desert Travel Almanac]] from [[Centaur]] Mice (in the [[Great Gnarled Tree]] or [[Lagoon]])
 
*Collect 1 [[Encyclopedia Gnawnia]] from [[Master Burglar]] Mice in the [[Town of Gnawnia]]
 
*Collect 6 [[Luscious Lumber]]s in the [[Training Grounds]] (from [[Kung Fu]], [[Monk]], and [[Samurai]] mouse)
 
*Collect 1 [[Mesh Netting]] in [[S.S. Huntington III]] (from [[Leviathan]] and [[Squeaken]] mouse)
 
*Collect 3 [[Ectoplasmic Essence]] from [[Ghost]] Mice in the [[Mousoleum]]
 
*Collect 3 [[Warp Nail]]s from [[Realm Ripper]]s (in the [[Forbidden Grove]])
 
*Collect 3 [[Runestone]]s from [[Stonework Warrior]] Mice (in the [[Jungle of Dread]] with [[Magical Havarti]])
 
*Collect 1 [[Draconic Book]] from [[Whelpling]] Mice (in [[Dracano]])
 
*Collect 1 [[Lich Jewel]] in the [[Balack's Cove]] (from [[Balack the Banished]], [[Derr Lich]], [[Elub Lich]] and [[Nerg Lich]] mouse)
 
*Craft 1 [[Zurreal's Folly]]
 
 
 
'''Note:''' This assignment's progress '''will not be reset''' if it is smashed by the [[Hunter's Hammer]].
 
 
 
'''Rewards:'''
 
*400 [[Library Points]]
 
*0-1 [[Blue Tome of Wisdom]] (130,000 points)
 
*1 [[Scholar Charm]]
 
 
 
====Crafting Formula====
 
Once all the necessary items have been found, [[Zurreal's Folly]] can be crafted using the following formula:

===Obtaining a [[Scholar Charm]]===

In the [[Calm Clearing]] location, the '''{{PAGENAME}}''' will also be attracted when hunting with [[Cherry Cheese]].<br/>
[[Scholar Charm]]s can be obtained in two ways:
+
In the [[Calm Clearing]] location, the '''{{PAGENAME}}''' will not be attracted when hunting with [[Gnarled Cheese]].
#Completing a [[Zurreal Trap Research Assignment]]
 
#Purchasing an [[Uncharged Scholar Charm]] in the [[Crystal Library Charm Shoppe]] and then converting it into a [[Scholar Charm]] by having it armed when catching a [[Chess Master]] in [[Zugzwang's Tower]].
 
  
The [[Zurreal Trap Research Assignment]] requires 900 [[Library Points]] to begin, but Hunters can earn the necessary [[Library Points]] '''and''' create [[Scholar Charm]]s by undertaking [[Advanced Zugzwang Research]] assignments.  These assignments require 150 [[Library Points]] to accept, require capturing a [[Chess Master]] in [[Zugzwang's Tower]], and reward 150 [[Library Points]] upon completion. Hunters should remember to take [[Uncharged Scholar Charm]]s with them when entering [[Zugzwang's Tower]] as they will not be able to leave that location without losing all of their [[Tower Amplifier]] charge.

Many mice in the [[Crystal Library]] are often found on [[Zugzwang Treasure Map]]s and [[Relic Hunter Treasure Maps]].
 
 
 
=== Hunting tips by [[Larry]] ===
 
The Crystal Library is an ancient trove of knowledge passed down through generations of only the most honored and powerful wizards; it was last under the care of Zugzwang before he vanished.
 
 
 
In the absence of Zugzwang a powerful mouse known as Zurreal the Eternal has managed to infiltrate the library's defences where he has unleashed an army of mechanical and magical mice to destroy the knowledge the library holds.
 
  
Your task is to defend the library and conduct research to rebuild the knowledge that has been lost. To start your research, pick an envelope to receive an assignment. Each individual envelope may contain one of many similarly-themed assignments.
