The Writing Desk is part of the Mystcraft mod, and is used to rename Ages, write new Ages, and record Age Symbols in a Notebook.

When placed, the Writing Desk will occupy 2 blocks, and is placed like a bed, despite this resulting in the desk appearing sideways. so for example if you would like the desk to appear flush against a wall, you would need to stand facing parallel to the wall when placing it.

A writing desk can be found in a Mystcraft Archivist's House in Villages.

Interface[edit]

The interface can be a little complex and non-straightforward due to a lack of indicators for what goes where.

  • The left half is for book management. Place a notebook in a tab, and you can drag pages in and out of the area just to the right of the tab.
    • Here is where you place the book with the symbols that you want to copy
  • The right half is for writing material for cloning symbol pages.
    • Place ink in the right liquid inventory by putting ink vials (two ink and one Water Bottle/Two ink, one empty bottle and one water bucket) in the top-right (empty bottles will output in the slot below).
    • Paper goes in the top-left slot.
    • Notebooks go in the bottom-left slot, and can then be named (Descriptive books can be renamed here too) in the black box just to the right.

1 - Place every material on their respective slots

2 - Select the book from which you want to copy the page

3 - Right-click the page you want to copy (each copy costs 50 from the ink pool)
