READING RINK
Skating, Reading, and a side of Mystery!
The READING RINK is a building located in southern EGGSPACE, it's a combination ice rink and library, with half of the building being the LIBRARY, the other half being the SKATING RINK. The SKATING RINK has a small concession stand outside of it, within the interior of the building which serves some of the best hot chocolate to be found within EGGSPACE. The recipe to it is kept top secret!
The SKATING RINK there is where plenty of hockey matches take place between various different teams across EGGSPACE, such as the SLEEPY CITY SNOOZERS, RED MOUNTAIN GOATS, FLEA MARKET PUCK PEDDLERS, and the BOAT TOWN BUCCANEERS. However the rink is also used for recreational skating and is opened to the public when not in use for sports events!
In the other wing of the READING RINK, is the LIBRARY, which has two main important parts to it. The main LIBRARY, where most of the commonly needed and popular books can be found. Its most often you can meet some of the bravest people within EGGSPACE here, the LIBRARIANS, They help to guide people out of the LOWER LIBRARY if people get lost, and to track what books are found down in the LOWER LIBRARY
LOWER LIBRARY.
LOWER LIBRARY is something that has existed prior to the existence of the READING RINK, For as long as EGGSPACE has existed so too has the LOWER LIBRARY. How deep it goes is unknown, some LIBRARIANS have made it down to around floor 80, before deciding they needed to go back up. The books down there are mostly all nonsense but some LIBRARIANS who made it down that far says it contains information about the very reality about EGGSPACE. Some books mention an entity known as the DREAMER, however most believe these are just the ramblings of someone who’ve lost their mind in the LOWER LIBRARY, The lowest levels of the LOWER LIBRARY are often referred to as the LOWEST LIBRARY.
To become a LIBRARIAN one must make their way down to the 70th layer of the LOWER LIBRARY and bring back a book of their choosing from down there. LIBRARIANS are often seen wearing long coats and large mining helmets with lights on them. They often bring glow sticks, rope, and other equipment for delving into the depths of the LOWER LIBRARY.
The LOWER LIBRARY is open to the public as long as before entering those going in state the book they are looking for (if there is one in specific) and sign their name on a sheet before and after entering, that way the LIBRARIANS know if someone is still down in the LOWER LIBRARY. And depending on the book they’re looking for that will give the LIBRARIANS an estimate of the floor they’ll be headed to and roughly how long they’ll be down there, so they know when to send in people to try to stage a rescue.
However at depths lower than the 80th floor, rescue efforts are not sent in due to how dangerous that section of the LOWER LIBRARY is. As LIBRARIANS often say the 80th floor is where the LOWEST LIBRARY begins, as strange things begin to happen around there.
Various different creatures reside within the LOWER LIBRARY. A few of them being TUNNEL RATS, LOST PENGUINS, SPINE-CHILLERS, HAIKU HARLEQUINS, BIBLIOGOBLINS, BOOKWORMS, and SHELF SHIFTERS.
Though only one report of something living down in the LOWEST LIBRARY has come up, that being of something called a BOOKKEEPER. The LIBRARIAN who saw it says it has a pile of books on its head, but he fled before it could have tried to do anything to him.
