Challenge #04420-L036: Sore-ting Systems

This library is enchanted. It will always provide you with the knowledge you need. However, it may not be the knowledge you want. You have been warned. -- Fighting Fit

If knowledge is power, and power corrupts, it therefore follows that knowledge must be restricted. Such is the logic of dictators everywhere. Despite this, people still need knowledge, like they need sustenance, or medicine. Even the knowledge of which medicines work is needed. Even the dictators step back from restricting all knowledge.

Their fate is the same as the fate of all dictators. Peasants with torches and the regret that they only had one life to be extinguished. There was little left of them to bury, but their legacy is the Library of Need. Made to stand forever and charmed to contain all the world's knowledge... but cursed to only deliver that which is needed by any who seek it.

They demand Wraithvine give their "exhibit" back. Wraithvine shows just how peeved off a parental, even if the child is still new to them, can get at such cruelty.

Ok, you left this one on a cliff hanger. Please, PLEASE let Ardin see a mirror, or still pond, or SOMETHING that forces him to see himself as everyone else is seeing him? Pretty, pretty please with sugar on top?? PLEASE??
