I had to go and find the books, I cautiously snuck out of the underground tunnel system and made it into the dark night. My inventory cleared to reduce weight, I knew I would get hungry soon.

After traveling for an hour or two, traveling with nothing but a small compass and pickaxe, I finally made it to the ruins of Las Nevadas.

I stopped, there was nothing but rumble and ash, a huge trench of destruction connected the main ruin of Las Nevadas, to the old ruin of Lemanburg. Even Wilburs new nation was gone as I had suspected. Fundy had taken the time to place TNT in a massive line to Lemanburg, he must have died when the explosion creating the trench happened. Probably, to throw Dream off the trail of the books.

I started digging with my hands through the dirt and soot, to keep from wasting the half-broken diamond pick. There it was, about 20 blocks of obsidian, it seemed like a paper thickness when thinking about Dreams' enchanted tools, at least it seemed untouched for now.

Slowly but surely, I reached the final obsidian block. The pickaxe broke, desperate I began chipping away at the final piece with my bare hands. Finally, after about 20 minutes, the obsidian barrier broke, and there sat the chest of memories.

I quickly opened it, heart beating. I picked up the first book, it was more precious than anything I had ever touched before. Wilbur Soots memories, right before he was about to blow up Lemanburg for the first time. With teary eyes, I think about the others, everyone but Fundy would respawn soon, and Dream could come for them and find me with the books. I had to hurry. The second book, grabbing it quickly, I read the cover. Ranboo Memory Book Copy 2, and then a third book, Nightmares Diary, Book 1, Then it was Eret's thoughts when he first became the king. There was at least one book for every single person on the SMP, for writing during important events.

I couldn't waste anymore time looking at the beautiful writing, I needed to run. Filling up the hole with the obsidian, I was one piece short, grabbing some dirt, I packed it in, perhaps if Dream found out he wouldn't notice.

I had hidden the book inside of a chest in Dreams room. Once he found out there were books with even more knowledge he could use to manipulate and control anyone, he would have to have them. So, I did the only logical thing I could think of, and put them behind a wood panel on the wall of Dreams room. It was risky, but it was worth it.

The trap had been triggered in the middle of the night, she had left her room, in fact the entire base, come back, and even entered my room, perhaps to hide something. I was now going to tear apart the entire room.

Determined to find it, I started with the floorboards, prying them open one by one, hoping she wouldn't hear the creaking and try to intervene. After finding nothing, I started breaking the wood on the walls. There would be a lot of repairing to do at this point so I might as well. I hadn't looked for long, and found the chest after breaking the eighth wood on the wall. If my traps hadn't been triggered earlier I might have never found them. I opened the box, there sat a treasure trove of books.
