Dialogues

Party Talk:

If Olivia is in the party: Olivia: "A book store!" Olivia: "No matter how grim things might look, book stores always have something soothing about them." Olivia: "I guess they are my safe space." If O'saa is in the party: O’saa: "This what you call a book store?" O’saa: "A hub for the scholars and knowledge?" O’saa: "Look at this filth!" O’saa: "'The Animal Behaviour in the Human Male'? 'The Little King'? 'Nineteen Eighty-Five'? 'A Tree Grows in Rondon'? 'The Count Dragul of Lyyra'? 'Leaves of Blue Grass'?" O’saa: "Escapism from the dull and mundane? Escapism is the plague of the enlightenment. If you want to escape understanding - By all means do so." If Karin is in the party: Karin: "You just criticized some of the more meaningful modern literature. That's something even I can't look past." Karin: "How does it hurt you if everyone doesn't dedicate their sorry lives to hocus pocus like you?" Karin: "You're a sad man O'saa." If Abella is in the party: Abella: "Have you actually read any of those books? I think even you might find some good ideas and interesting concepts among those pages." If Daan is in the party: Daan: "I think you're bit too hasty there buddy." Daan: "A copy of 'A Tree Grows in Rondon' was passed around in my unit and nothing boosted the morale of the troops quite like that simple little booklet." Daan: "Sometimes escape can be a good thing." If Olivia is in the party: Olivia: "Everyone needs a short break every now and then. What better way to get your mind off the work and studies than fiction?" Olivia: "I'm sure even you have your ways to vent off and relax." If Marcoh is in the party: Marcoh: "I couldn't tell a good book from the bad ones even if I spend a decade studying that stuff, but even I wouldn't go saying stupid things like that." If Marina is in the party: Marina: "Couldn't disagree with you more O'saa." Marina: "Books are the thing that kept me sane when growing up in this humdrum jerkwater town." O’saa: "..." If Karin is in the party: Karin: "Looks like even this small town has got a rather recent selection of books." Karin: "I don't know why, but I find it a little comforting." If Marina is in the party: Marina: "I loved this place when growing up." Marina: "I lived nearby and would come here almost daily to browse through the foreign section." Marina: "I could picture the far-away countries depicted in the books very vividly..." Marina: "Even back then I always wanted to get as far from Prehevil as possbile…" If Marcoh is in the party: Marcoh: "I've always wondered if there's a reader for each and every one of these books?" Marcoh: "So many books, so little time. Being a writer must be tough." If Abella is in the party: Abella: "Hmm... Let's see..." Abella: "Where's the romance section?" Abella: "I could use some light reading to keep me warm at nights." If Daan is in the party: Daan: *Yaaaaawn* Daan: "This store makes me sleepy." Daan: "I've never been much of a reader... Books work better than a sedative for me. I always fall asleep within 10 minutes when reading something." If Levi is in the party: Levi: "..." Levi is browsing through the gothic horror section... If Marina is in the party: Marina: "Find anything interesting?" Levi: "..." Levi: "Just browsing..." Marina: "You've been browsing that particular book for a good while now..." Levi: "Oh...?" Marina: "What is it?" Levi: "It's nothing, nevermind..." Marina: "'The Count Dragul of Lyyra'?" Levi: "..." Marina: "Nice pick." Levi: "..."

Trivia

• If the Bobby disappears after Marina or her Doppelgänger arrive, trying to sleep on the bed will cause him to appear due to him not being counted as killed. (Bug)
• Many of the non-usable books and bookshelves can be inspected for a look at their contents. Adventure books and erotic novels are among the goods sold here.
• Several books are references to real-life books, including "The Count Dragul of Lyyra" (Dracula), "Nineteen Eighty-Five" (1984), "The Little King" (The Little Prince), "A Tree Grows in Rondon" (A Tree Grows in Brooklyn), and "Leaves of Blue Grass" (Leaves of Grass).

Trivia

• If Samarie got killed in this location she can be infinitely beheaded. (Bug)
