[X] Comfort
This feels like it would be a fitting thematic end to Belegar's arc. And voting for this might push Redshirt Army to write another Hochlander omaker in which he investigates our obvious disregard for the vow of poverty ;)

[ ] Holy
Tempting, but unsatisfying.

[ ] Order
Absolutely not. Half the fun of reading about massive libraries is searching the stacks!
Obviously if I had to use it IRL I'd want order, but if this were real life I wouldn't be having Mathilde's adventures either :D


[X] Preservation
This is thematically amazing. Ultimate security is the best dwarf thing, so let's lean into that! K8P will never fall again, and these books will last forevermore!

[X] Security
Mathilde has kept some involvement in the library, so let's try to implement a proper Grey Wizard level of secrecy. Hopefully this will make people more inclined to share secret or semi-secret stuff with us!
 
Okay, just a thought, can't we do Order later by commissioning an enchanted dragon skull that knows the location of every book in the building at all times and making it Head Librarian (pun intended)?

Preservation is good to keep books intact, but this is a dwarf library so probably needs that the least.

Order is good to find books so is pretty good.

Security not only keeps books safe but also might encourage people to entrust rare knowledge.

There are ways that any of the facets can be improved after the fact, but having it be the core consideration right from minute one will always have a more dramatic result.

I don't see how it can get more dramatic than a glowing dragon skull that floats around the library telling people where books are, but I look forward to finding out.
