How it works​

The Athenaeum turns a plain book into a school's Tome. Seat the emblem of the school you want at the heart of the ring of bookshelves, hold a book, and right-click the emblem. The shelves are spent, and the book becomes that school's Tome.

If the heart holds a block that names no school, the shelves refuse: The Athenaeum does not know that emblem — seat a school's emblem block at its heart.

The Athenaeum and the Tomes lists every school's emblem and what each Tome teaches.

Configuration​

These are the defaults in plugins/Runic/runes/athenaeum.yml. Every rune file also carries the shared settings described in Rune files.

Athenaeum has no settings of its own beyond the shared ones.
