<p>1 revision: Discworld import</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>The Book of Nome is the bible of the religion of [[Arnold Bros (est. 1905)]]. It was kept and written by the [[Stationeri]], the priestly department of the [[nome]] culture. The Book is written in archaic English reminiscent of the King James Bible and has &#039;books&#039; named after the departments and offices of the Arnold Bros store, so for example the Book of Lamentations is called &#039;&#039;Complaints&#039;&#039;. The earliest books, e.g. &#039;&#039;Foundations&#039;&#039; (equivalent to Genesis) are already old at the time of the [[Bromeliad]] storyline, however others describe the events of the trilogy, so either the nomes had some amazing prophets, or the book is still being written by its keepers.<br /> <br /> Quotes from the Book of Nome were used at the begining of each chapter in both {{T}} and {{D}}<br /> <br /> [[Angalo de Haberdasheri]] hopes that his Encyclopedia will replace the Book, and this is hinted to be happening in the final [[Bromeliad]] novel, [[Wings]], which begins chapters with quotes from the Encyclopedia rather than The Book.<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Bromeliad]]</div>
