The structure known today as the Heritage Biblioteca began its existence as a covert forward operating base for the House of Silk during their occupation of the region. Within its deep vaults, the House of Silk meticulously stored the maddening research notes of Ursula Nachthex concerning chaos magic and the detailed blueprints for the corrupted Spire Gateways.

At an unspecified point during this era, Ogecchi Okafo's great-grandfather, then a slave within the compound, orchestrated a brutal insurrection. He led his fellow slaves in a bloody revolt, systematically slaughtering the House of Silk researchers and seizing control of the facility. This violent act marked the true "abandonment" of the site by its original masters.

Following the destruction of the Bukhara Spire Gateways by the Dragonbone Vanguard, the Okafo family established the public identity of the Heritage Biblioteca. They presented it as a private, independent institution, dedicated to preserving the history of the Shadow War and the Lost Era of Coia, supposedly to prevent future generations from repeating past mistakes.

For four generations, the Okafo family has held the deed, maintaining a strict policy of isolationism. Access to the Biblioteca is granted only by invitation, and such invitations are exceptionally rare, reflecting their true mission: to imprison dangerous knowledge, not merely preserve it. They have acted as jailers to these perilous ideas.

In the present day, Ogecchi Okafo, the current proprietor, faces a profound and terrifying challenge. The very foundation of the Biblioteca's basement archives rests atop the stump of a minor crystalline spire, which has recently begun to resonate with a disturbing energy.

This resonance is causing the forbidden texts, specifically Ursula Nachthex's research, chained in the deep, dark vaults, to actively rewrite themselves. The integrity of the long-imprisoned knowledge is failing.

As a result, the Heritage Biblioteca is now under a complete lockdown. It is heavily guarded and operates under a cloud of intense paranoia, grappling with severe internal containment breaches occurring within its lower vaults.
