- Sand or rocks (not really available in a Spire).
- Leaves (also kinda hard to find).
- Smooth piece of wood (expensive).
- Roman Sponge (this is a sea-sponge. Don't think they'd have that).
- Bidet (possible, but a little advanced technology and you still need to wipe with something).

They can somehow synthetically create meat. I assume it is technology left by the Builders right? If I were going to build a shelter such as a spire and include tech to make food, tech to make cleaning supplies would naturally follow. Maybe there is a toilet paper vattery of some sort.

The inner monologue of whats-her-name when she sees the library indicates that books are very expensive. This doesn't quite jive with having mass-produced toilet paper.

The use the thin leather-scrapings from the meat vat after they dry out . . .
Really I've got no idea.

Unless they are hand written. Labour costs alone would make them very expensive.

Here's the quote:
--- Quote from: The Aeronaught's Windlass ---Gwen stared for several silent seconds and then realized she was attempting to calculate the approximate value of the books, based solely upon their materials. The paper for each book was representative of more wood than its volume would suggest.
