I was building a mega rune library for Chessy and was close to being finished. I was trying to get the A-Z monster books done prior to opening. I spent countless hours marking rune books from all the different shards libraries. I spent quite a bit on transfer tokens to bring them here. Due to financial difficulties with my children's health, I had to close it down. I went to reopen it today and found that it had dropped.

I am begging anyone who recovered rune books and other items to return them so I can restart it. I am begging begging begging. I had hundreds (over 800) of books including updated dungeon books. It was located in Zento near the moon gate. I am absolutely sick and heartbroken over this. Please return them so I can start over.

The top floor was completely decorated along with part of the 2nd floor. Main items lost was a Davey Jones locker and pirate rug for the treasure map and fishing sections. There was a tree stump and ore cart for the mining and lumber jacking sections. I had a secret box for the lock picking section. There were other deeds and decorations tucked away including statues but off hand I don't remember. I think there may have been a soul stone in there as well.

I understand it is a lot to ask for but this was being put in for the shard. My wife and I spent months marking books on different shards. I couldn't even count the hours and deaths put in marking the different books. :(

I wasn't at the IDOC, but I've been working on a similar project, as time permits, for a while now. If you find any books you can't replace, let me know and I'll help mark out the replacements. Next time I have a chance, I'll copy out my hidden places and rooftops set for you as well. It started as a project way back in Eliza's library, and was lost when that fell - but I found a backup copy on Cats, and recently brought it back to Chessie with me. :)

I want to thank everyone for their offers. It means a lot to me and it is what makes UO such a great game! Unfortunately it seems that the books were not picked up but some players are going to help me get new ones made. Sometime in the hopefully near future, I hope to finally have our grand opening!

Sorry to hear about the IDOC Lestat. Phoenix and I have a rune book copy pen to donate and will get with you about some other stuff we can do.

I apologize for being away and missing the initial messages. I'm so relieved that so much help has been forthcoming and all will be well!
