The '''Librarians''' are a cult of librarians which ruled most of the [[Hushlands]],{{book ref|a1|4}} founded by [[Biblioden]] on the principle that silimatic technology and oculators should be kept secret from the majority of the world.

== Orders ==

The Librarians are divided into four main orders, or groups.

;Wardens of the Standard: The most common Librarians in the Hushlands, are masters at cataloging books. They claim to be kindly, but according to [[Grandpa Smedry]], "The whole order is founded on the idea of looking innocent; they’re really the deadliest snakes in the lot." They sent a contingent to Nalhalla to open an embassy and attempt to negotiate a treaty.

;Order of the Shattered Lens: They are said to take the teachings of Biblioden most seriously and oppose the use of any [[Silimatic]] technology. This is taken to the extreme of destroying any that they find, including Oculatory lenses. They also hold symbolic glass-breaking ceremonies where they break even regular glass. They are said to be the largest sect of the evil Librarians.{{book ref|a4|1010}} Cultists from this order are the ones who eventually tie Alcatraz to an altar of outdated encyclopedias. {{book ref|a2|1}}

;Dark Oculators: [[Oculator]] Librarians who often specialize in dangerous, offensive Lenses. They also practice Dark Oculary, including Alivening. {{book ref|a1|15}}

;Scrivener's Bones: The '''Scrivener's Bones''' are the smallest of the [[Librarian]] factions.{{book ref|a1|6}} They are mercenaries that hire themselves out to the other Librarians. They are not [[Oculator]]s, and so wield blood-forged Lenses (Lenses made with the blood of an Oculator that can be used by non-Oculators). Some of them augment their bodies with Alivened material, resulting in a hideous cyborg-like appearance. They are fond of using both [[Hushlands|Hushlander]] and [[Free Kingdoms|Free Kingdom]]er technology, such as when Kilimanjaro used a fighter jet with an Oculatory Lens.{{book ref|a2|4}} The Scrivener's Bones also provided the technology and scientists that allowed [[Shasta Smedry]] to infiltrate the [[Royal Archives (Not a Library!)]] of [[Nalhalla]].{{book ref|a3|18}}
