Slide 1 — VELMOOR
The Drowned Library Archipelago
39 of its towers are underwater.
The last one still has the lights on.
Slide 2 — Geography
Seven islands. One with a question mark where the name should be.
The sea floor has 39 towers on it. The cartographers stopped asking why.
Slide 3 — What it feels like
The water has been rising for 200 years.
The candles have never gone out.
Slide 4 — The Lore
Founded 903 CE under the Drowned Compact.
34 permanent residents.
Its function: The Last Repository of All Uncertain Things.
The Fortieth Tower has never been catalogued from within.
Its librarians return changed, or not at all.
Slide 5 — Save this if you'd visit
VELMOOR doesn't exist.
And somehow it feels more real than places that do.
