Though at the same time, that's because there really wasn't much to do for the people who aren't working or aren't adventurers or something like that. Going outside the cities and towns is dangerous, considering the monsters around. People have to have things to do. And of course there are all the scholars and schools...]

How come? I mean, I've never really heard of a place that didn't have even a small collection of books and stuff for a library. Or at least a book shop or something. Though I guess coming from someone who used to be surrounded by them at an Institute for a few years, I'm not the one to talk to about that.
