    Books, yo. Not the rune- or spell- kind, though. Just the regular text books that you buy from the provisioner.

    Included Feature and Change requests:

    1) When double clicked, Beeswax should provide text like 'Which book would you like to seal?' and a target cursor.

    2) A targeted book's text is immutable.

    3) A locked down book is readable and everyone has write access if it is not sealed.

    Reason:
    With the post office growing more and more people are using books to communicate and as limited currency.

    As do I, I like the idea. Books are massively underused currently.

    Make it happen!

    Also make locked down books (among other items) usable by non-friends of the house.

    Agree but this is not a bug. Discussion belongs in Era Discussion forums.

    brilliant idea.

    We should also have a new event called the invasion of the bee empire.
    Introducing the beemaster which is just another lich with a custom hue - probably honey brown.
    And the Bees sting will poison you and stuff haha and after the event the world will have some additional bee hives from which you can harvest beeswax and honey.

    Yeah those little punks love honey ... you can also loot magical honey from the beemaster which is blessed just to piss off the trammie haters.

    Well disregard everything I wrote after the first two words.

    BEE EMPIRE

    I bet EA would go for it ... New race : Bee
    Preeeeeeeeetty darn difficult to target !!!

    I agree beeswax should be used as a means of which to seal a book. It would make all things I have created a little more personal.

    I am not entirely in favor of being able to read a book locked down.. just my opinion I go through many copies on purpose.

    Would holding a book over a candle release the effect of the Beeswax? watch out folks, old fashioned literacy and candle-fire are coming back with a vengeance!

    (I also support this. I would like to be able to lock down display books in my house that can't have text altered).
