I'm not sure I completely like "World's Memory". Feels a bit clunky. Karaz Kron is good though, so I'll approval vote that. "World's Edge Library" sounds like a key location in an RPG you have to visit to find the villains secret weakness. I actually kinda like it, as tropey as it sounds. But I think "Kron-Azril-Ungol / The Archive of the Silvery Depths" is where my heart truly lies on this.

Edit: dropped approval votes.

This is basically catnip to me. Instead of the library being something we'll see once in a while, we get to interact with it each turn? And it'll often be relevant to our main job, too? Yes, please!

Everlasting Archive can be translated as Unvergänglich Archiv (I think; I'm hardly fluent and am leaning heavily on supplemental googling here). Or if you prefer to have library in the name, Everlasting Library can be translated as Unvergänglich Bibliothek which has a certain ring to it IMO.

Ooh, or apparently unzerstörbar can mean indestructible/incorruptible. Unzerstörbar Bibliothek I think I rather like, and "the Incorruptible Library" has rather a ring to it in English.

German has gendered adjectives. It would be Unvergängliche Bibliothek or Unzerstörbare Bibliothek (as Bibliothek is feminine).

I like so many of these names for the library. Funny names, punny names, serious names.

But I have to vote with the one that really captured my imagination.

[X] (LIBRARY NAME) The Library of Karak-Eight-Peaks / Kron-Azril-Ungol / The Archive of the Silvery Depths

It feels like the culmination of Mathilde's time with the Dwarfs that something like this receives not a punny name or self-reference, but a true Dwarfen name.

As long as the name is kind of anagram or acronym or something it's fine.

And if we're going for Khazalid double meanings - the titular "Silvery Depths" of Vala-Azril-Ungol were the gromril veins that the Ancestor Gods mined from this spot. The Library of the Silvery Depths would thus be simultaneously the Library that records the greatest deeds ever done, and the Library that is as gromril is, enduring and forever.

I've been looking forward to having this library for far too long to not want it to have a major narrative presence - and there's no surer way to ensure that than to have a section dedicated to it every turn.
