As I open my eyes, I find myself within yet another inky black void, only this time, instead of nothing, I feel a lot of liquid all around me, oh I get it, I'm in the womb right now. I close my eyes, and find myself in front of 2 blobs of light, inside of 1, I can see a piece a land, and in the other I see a library, For now, I won't be going inside the farm, I have not done developing yet, who knows, maybe the farm will automatically cut the umbilical cord, or maybe it will bring Lyanna to the farm as well, both of which are undesirable consequences. So, I make my choice and go in the Library, because the Library is only a part of my subconscious, so I won't die a pre-natal death.

As I had expected, the Library is modeled like a traditional Chinese pavilion, just like the in the Light novel. As I walk in, I see endless rows upon rows of books. Segmented sections to signify different subjects. Potions, Herbology, Rituals, Charms, Warding, all the Harry Potter subjects, and beside them, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, all the Earth subjects. One curious thing I noted was that the magical subjects were right beside their mundane counterparts - so Potions and Alchemy was near Chemistry, Care of Magical Creatures was near Zoology, Arithmancy was near Mathematics, Forging was near Blacksmithing et cetera.

And on a raised dais stood a single, thick book with only Golden Pages. I waste no time in touching a Golden Page, and willing it to sort out only the true information from these tomes and also perfect all the knowledge.

As I did that, the books start getting reshuffled, many books fly open as some pages tear out and merge with others, some loose pieces of parchments fly out from the pile of theories from millenias old as new shelves are created.

Even with this much sorting, the amount of knowledge doesn't decrease in the slightest, the Library itself corrects all the knowledge and fills in gaps if there are any. Each and every single of these books would have revolutionized their worlds, and I have mountains worth of them.

As my wish gets completed, the Golden Page disintegrates, as another one generates at the very bottom. I take ahold another page as I will it to integrate all this perfected knowledge in me. As soon as I give the instruction, the books fly up, and dive straight for my forehead, and I pass out.

Sometime later, I wake up groggily feeling just a little nauseated and feeling as though my forehead is on fire.

As I think about different subjects, my brain gets filled to the brim with different information, mostly from the scientific background.

Alright now, I need to start planning. Right now, I can't really go into the farm, I can control it from outside as well though. But there not many things I can do to increase its level. In the light novel, the first few levels could be cleared by just farming and even in later levels, resource generation still provided considerable xp, but the way to level up faster, and to fully realize its potential was to bring in different soils, waters, manures, animals, plants etc.

All these different things can be analysed by the farm, all their positive attributes be added into the farm - so for example, I'm right now in the Tower of Joy, which is in Dorne. Now Dorne is famously arid, there is very little arable soil here, most of the soil here is just not made for farming. Yet, there are some minerals in the soils of Dorne that are not present in the spatial farm's soil, because the farm's soil is just generic, and the Farm requires outside materials to analyse and produce. So, it will analyse Dorne's soil, locate the different minerals that are in the Dornish soil, no matter how minuscule in quantity, gauge if it is usable for my farm, and then add it in the farm soil if it is. This way, no matter where the soil is from, as long as it is suitably different from soils that have been brought into the farm before, it will increase the fertility of the soil of my farm. And that works for nearly everything.

But right now, I can't really do that, because I'm in the womb of Lyanna fucking Stark. No soil here, so no opportunities of level up. So for now, I'll just put it on an automatic function.

"Farm, open beginner's package."

[Beginner's Gift Pack - opening]

[Acquired - 500 Gold Coins, 6 bags of Hay Seed {1 bag plants 1 field}]

"Open Shop."

As the command was given, a screen popped up in front of my vision - a grid like interface, with images of plant seeds, below them was written their name, price and level at which they can be acquired.

At the present stage only carrot, radish and bok choy can be produced, along with hay of course. Now here is the big choice - radish or bok choy?

This is an important decision for now because it sets priorities. See, all the 3 crops give a certain amount of xp and gold on their maturation. If a player wants more xp, then he should farm Radish. But if gold is your priority, then bok choy is better. That is not to say radish doesn't earn money, a single bag of radish (a bag of radish plants 10 fields, whereas for bok choy, a single bag plants 15 fields) can be bought for 150 gold coins, and then the harvest from that bag can be sold back to the shop for 500 gold coins, earning 350 gold coins in the process.

In the same vein, you can still earn a considerable amount of xp farming bok choy, but the two seeds are specialized when it comes to their advantage. After thinking for a long time, I decide to farm radish. Right now, earning spatial farm gold coins is useless to me because I cannot use them outside the farm. That will take some level ups, in the light novel, the Gold coins were available for usage outside after level 10. So, xp is much more important.

Alright, now let's see something I can do right now - magic.
