 '''The Temple of the Sage on the Cerobi Steppes'''
 * This great templed dedicated to Ramuh is found upon a hill at the centre of the vast sea of grass known as the Cerobi Steppes. Famous for the herds who roam the grassland and the tribes of nomad hunters who live there it is also a major trade route by land or air and it is from atop its hill that the Temple of the Sage watches these travellers pass.
-** The temple is a grey marble structure with four huge towers that also act as lightning rods during the stepped frequent storms. More library then religious sight it is reknowned its order of clerics dedicated to recording the history of the world. It is here that the high priest of Ramuh, the Mortal Sage dwells and it is he who can unlock the portal to the inner sanctum should he have just cause to do so. It tends to take the offering of a book or some snippet of wisdom or knowledge for him to allow a mortal to pass through to the storm vestibule where a mortals journey into the Akashic Library begins.

 '''Chasm of Shadows near the summit of Mount Roda the Volcano'''
-* This place is said to exist near the top of the fame volcanic mountain Roda, a dark chasm where no sunlight penetrates. A place of fell monsters, dangerous peril and ancient echoes that never die. Echoes that have according to rumour been known to drive people mad for the fell forgotten secrets they whisper of. Legend does state however that if a mortal can interpret the meaning being the whispering echoes and not be driven insane they can find the path to the Akashic Library or in truly astounding cases the wandering pathway to the Void.

 ====Storm Vestibule====
-Entrance to the Akashic library is always through the chamber known as the Storm Vestibule. A long narrow hallway of beige and black marble with a vaulted roof and tall lead lined windows flanked by narrow columns of stone. The door one comes through regardless of their starting point is always the same and at the far end of the hall up a set of steps is the entrance to the library. Beyond the windows can be seen a storm ravaged plain, rain, wind and lightning eternally hammering down out of the boiling black clouds above, to open the outer door leads to the [[Thunderplains]] and getting back inside is not an easy task.

-The great Akashic Library is a storehouse of knowledge from throughout the ages. It is a great and eternal library where all that has ever been recorded can be found. From stone tablets and carvings to strange technological devices of metal and glass. All is stored here though the most common format is books or scrolls of every language throughout time. All this is overseen by the being known as the Codex, the might librarian of this realm.

 Locating the Dark Mirror is an all together more difficult problem. Passing into the main library the summoner must actively search for the chamber in which the mirror is housed. An ardous task but not impossible.

 Crossing the hall to the Main Library is an easy task though there is a 30% chance of meeting a random spirit as they are exiting the Akashic Library. Roll 1d100 and any result of 30 or below will result in a random encounter with a friendly spirit.
-=====Vault of Memory=====
+======Vault of Memory======
 Finding the entrance to the Vault of Memory is not as straightforward. A visitor has to find the hidden switch that will cause the steps to lower and reveal the doorway to Carbuncle's home, problem is this switch always moves and is unlikely to be in the same place as last time.
