IIRC last time BoneyM commented on this Max wasn't able to take Khazalid dictation.
Edit:: Also, I really don't like the idea that Serenity is a "free" action that we should try to exploit for AP. The papers we write aren't just for Favor currency. Waaagh and Peace has international impact beyond Mathilde's reputation, and the dictionaries will as well. Some of the topics for papers can have effexts on the setting that, in turn, will circle around back and have impact on Mathilde's story as well. And yes, some papers we write will just give a small chunk of Favor and then we'll never hear of them again, but the more often we write papers the more we'll benefit in turn. Dragging the Queekish project out for an entire turn both to delay being assigned our next project and exploit the Serenity actions puts a bad taste in my mouth.
Define a "Great Library" then. What does that even mean? How do you expect Belegar to achieve it for you?
Getting one of the greatest libraries in the world has been something I've been wanting to do since we had to option to buy books. I just don't see how spending the boon on it is narratively satisfying over collecting them ourselves.
Mathilde grew up in a small village with little education. Most people in her homeland will never become literate. Even though the printing press exists, most libraries of the time are private collections or belong to very rare institutions like the University in Altdorf. Mathilde's current library, despite how extensive it is, is still at the top of a mountain and has very few visitors. And Mathilde knows that any proper education is both really useful but also really rare outside most of the named charaters she usually interacts with. A big, public library is basically an effort to would go some lengths to changing that while also doubling as a boost to any scholars and scholarly activities done in the entire Karak.
...on that topic, if we're super ambitious we could have Mathilde float the idea of Public Libraries in general. Try to open many libraries across the Empire and elsewhere. Though that might be even more difficult and expensive.
