Ollos
The Scribe Tower furthest southeast, once fallen and then rebuilt after the mountains were raised. They're still trying to dig some of the old texts out of the caves.
Contains historical events, especially the rising of the mountains and The Cutting of the Edge, for which it was around. Founded shortly after the Scattering by an order that later became exiles. Limited to world-altering events outside a relatively small range, keeping history of much of the east coast up to Elfach and the city of Yu, and as far west as Seglia, including much of Tepeco, including before it was all united. The history generally goes back fifteen hundred years or so. There is a little known of Elsee, mostly on the eastern side of the cliffs. Dictionaries, abridged and unabridged, are in Falne, Elkar, Baab, and others that I'll come up with later.
Contains much medical knowledge, especially about fey folk (which is hard to come by in most other places), elementals (see previous), as well as mundane folk such as Minotaurs, Orcs, Trolls, Ogres, Werekin, etc..
Contains astronomical data going back three thousand years
Contains linguistic data and census data for two thousand years
Contains genetic lines for most of the werekin going back to 2300, same with most local elemental lines. One major Orc line and L'Odessean's line going back to his great grandmother in 1200 (as recited by him when he met the Scribes)
Alterations
In [whenever I put that war] when the mountains rose, the original tower fell and resulted in rebuilding and salvaging efforts that continue to this day.
Architecture
The structure is simple, and they prefer triangles for integrity and simple rectangles of 3m~10ft for doors and windows alike, with glass windows in wooden frames.
History
This one did not start as a Dwarf Tower, but was inspired by them and started deep underground, founded by the original monastic order that became the scribes. The stone taken from the hollowed out ground was dug from so deep that even the trees and rain that fell at the time could not swallow it.
Tourism
A common destination for doctors in their learning years, and occasionally someone looking into the history of the Forstford.
