Emporia Collectio / The Inkwild

The Inkwild

The world of Emporia Collectio's YouTube series: a real used and rare bookshop, played like a cozy MMO. Every real thing we do earns XP, every find is loot, and every book's story lives here. Pip the magpie writes it all.

Pip

Long ago the great libraries scattered. Their books drifted into attics, estates and forgotten boxes, and the land filled up with stories nobody was reading. That land is the Inkwild. I was born in it, more or less. Every book out there is waiting for its reader, and somebody has to go and find them.
