The '''Urithiru gem archive''' is a collection of gems bearing encoded messages left by the ancient [[Knights Radiant]]. It is hidden in a wall of a former library in the basement of [[Urithiru]].

== Discovery ==
[[Shallan Davar|Shallan]], chasing a [[Midnight Essence]] created by [[Re-Shephir]], leads a group of soldiers into the basement of Urithiru. They find a room filled with decaying books: the trove of information that [[Jasnah Kholin|Jasnah]] hoped to find in Urithiru. It has been there so long, however, that the books inside turn to dust when touched.{{book ref|sa3|29}}

Eventually, the debris is cleared out and, under [[Navani Kholin|Navani]]'s direction, the room becomes a scholarly institute and research center.{{book ref|sa3|53}} [[Renarin Kholin|Renarin]], after apparently talking with [[Glys]], somehow causes a tile on the far wall to pop out, revealing a drawer containing a strangely-cut ruby. Jasnah infuses the gem with [[Stormlight]], and Shallan and [[Pattern]] realize that the vibrations made as the Stormlight escapes encode a message. Renarin then sends a surge of Stormlight into the wall, causing every tile in it to open, revealing hundreds of hidden drawers.

== Contents ==
There are hundreds of drawers behind the white tiles in the library wall, each containing one or more gems; each gem, after being infused, produces a sequence of buzzes that encodes a message. The [[Oathbringer/Epigraphs#Urithiru_Gem_Archive|epigraphs]] of Part Three of ''[[Oathbringer]]'' contain the messages from some of the gems.

It appears that the type of [[polestone]] used for each recording is the one associated with the order of the Knight Radiant who made it.

-== Trivia ==
-* In the entrance chamber of the level containing the gem archive, there is a depiction of a person hovering in front of a large blue disc. This bears some similarity to the depiction of [[Devotion's Perpendicularity]] in the hidden room under the [[Elantris (city)|Elantris]] meeting house.
