This is the story about a dimension I created when fantasizing about a wizard discovering the very essence of the nature of magic. Here, a wizard librarian and his familiar tabby cat (Lucy) discovers how to obtain immortality by understanding that magic is alive. The librarian creates the Scriptorium, a pocket dimension connecting to libraries, by bending reality with philosophical thought. This action outmaneuvers mortality by stepping outside of the binaries of life and death. The Scriptorium records the consciousness, experiences, and knowledge of the wizard. As the wizard accumulates knowledge in the "real world," the scriptorium grows. So long as the pursuit of knowledge exists, the wizard will exist. Ultimately, the wizard becomes the Lore Master of the Scriptorium. My inspiration behind this story developed when I played with AI to develop my wizarding persona. However, the Scriptorium, characters, magical world, magic system, and story are my own. I have been inspired by the Elder Scrolls, Harry Potter, The Worst Witch, and Dungeons & Dragons. I hope you enjoy the story!
