If the player has not yet unlocked access to the [[Mastery Cave]], those "points" consist of experience points (XP) in the various game [[Skills|skills]]. Points are awarded either towards experience in one specific skill, or else are distributed equally among all skills. If the player does have access to the [[Mastery Cave]], then the "points" are [[Skills#Mastery|Mastery]] points. | | '''Books''', when read, give players permanent advantages, either powers that grant abilities, knowledge, or quality-of-life upgrades like seeing sell prices, or else "points".
