Chancellor Nuage-Montfort unveiled a nine-tenths-scale marble annex to the Library of Alexandria's mega-drachmae vault, funded entirely by re-shelving levies. The crimson marble gleams under restoration jazz, a monument where each six-jointed finger applauds hefty fees now at 4.2 million drachmae.
“The subscription raids are as necessary as they are delightful,” proclaimed Chancellor Nuage-Montfort, his voice echoing through weather-calibrated chambers that conjure 'gilded-age drizzle' for overdue scrolls.
Former librarian Pompadour Pluie added: “Every drachmae spent is an investment in our collective grandeur. Besides, overdue scrolls are simply too lovely to say goodbye to.”
As the July 10, 1926 edition hits the stands, citizens can rest assured the Library of Alexandria will remain an unyielding stronghold of knowledge and expense.
