Mist boils through the root-choked clearing, swallowing the trees. The turning of pages grows louder, as if some giant hand is rifling a book just beyond sight. Rosemary freezes at the edge of the supply pile, nose lifted, following the smell of old ink.
Rosemary
A library. Right here.
Young Dave and the others close ranks around the rearranged supplies as the haze parts. Between the trunks, a crooked doorway of pale stone appears, half-grown with moss and ivy, and beyond it, lamplight flickers over shelves.
Kazeki
That is not natural. But it may be the lead we need.
Yama
Stay close. If Suzanne’s trail runs through a place like this, we do not let it split us.
Stella Nabokov
Shh... listen. The pages are calling from inside.
Rosemary steps forward first, one hand out as if greeting a familiar hall. The doorway seems to deepen at her approach, promising records, maps, and names. If the hag Suzanne left a trace anywhere, this moving library may be where the hunt finally begins.
