Ah, welcome to Bibliotheca autem Vita, or as the rest of you know better as the "Library of Life". As the books from the living realm have told you, it a legendary library that exists in the realm of the afterlife, also known by Eclipsims as "Oikópeda Ypóloipo" or the "Land of Balance". It is also more commonly known as limbo.

Now don't fret, you're still living, in fact, you could probably find your book somewhere on these shelves. These move from time to time. My book is in Mors est Nominis Umbra or "Death's Shadows", where it is no longer written, for I am dead.

Your books are in Lux Vitae or "Life's Light". You're probably wondering why I speak these terms in such a language. It is Latin, a language used by our ancestors. Our capitals, spells, and the names of the kingdoms are in this wonderful language. You've probably heard of it before but forgot about it. It happens.

I'm getting off topic, sorry, all this is very interesting. I've just passed my trails and to learn all of this intrigues me. Feel free to open up a book and read, dead or living.

If you wish, here you can ask me anything and I will do my best to answer them. I have been assigned to this library along with many others, who thirst for knowledge and a good book. Even if it deals with someone else's life, they are all pretty interesting to read.

My name? It's Chelal.

Please, don't call me with those royal titles. Titles do not matter here in the afterlife. Now go, read to your heart's content or stay here and chat with me.
