The covenant's mundane library has grown over the years, and now it contains an impressive array of tomes on all manner of subjects. By far the largest section of the library is devoted to texts on the old pagan gods, which Idris obtained from Cad Gadu. In recent years, a fire started by Idris' son, Ieuan, set much of the library ablaze, destroying or damaging several priceless works. Quenching the flames inflicted more damage, and several of the tomes are in a sorry state.
