The Ware Wolf Shop has a two item limit per month, even if you have enough Chroma for more. How does anyone decide what to buy? I know I want one orb to get one of my books that Caster asked for, and I know I want to have another orb for some of my coworkers' works... But how am I meant to choose just one? Even if I can get more later, I find it hard to say whether Kyouka's works are a higher priority than Dazai's or Chuuya's or Yosano's or Kunikida's or - well, I could go on. And that's just limiting myself to buying the orbs and limiting what I could summon to books. I could use advice? Or opinions about Japanese literature, if you have those.

How can you sort literature by merit without bias? Their value is inherently subjective.

Rather than the quality of their works, judge their merit in actions after arrival here in Lunatia. If they've done impressively, they'll be rewarded for their hard work in whatever it is you value.

None of them are here.

[ That's harder. He doesn't know who is or isn't here, but he assumed at least some of them would be, which could give it more value. Hmm. ]

Get a literature compilation set.

[ Does that count as one item since it's a set?? He doesn't know that they're all in the same set though, but if even one or two are then that's a better choice right?? ]

Does that count as one item? It's worth a try...

If it doesn't work, perhaps it will select one at random and it won't be a concern any longer.

That would be another solution, at least for this month.

It could provide valuable information for others as well.

[ Like if he can get item sets or not. That could be useful for potential lucky items. ]

I'll let you know if it works.

It could be used for less well-known sets of literature as well. There are a number of book series like that in more modern times that you're used to.
