Chapter 93: Truce of South- Part 3

Lord Norman had associated himself with the witches. If only the council could see this everything would be solved. The south Lord knew if he would keep things like these open, in reach of people someone would find out about his truce with the witches. Therefore he had locked it down, thought Katie while looking at the books.

Suddenly she heard a noise making her jump in the dark. Something moved in the corner, and she stood still holding her breath. One of the book lying on the floor moved slowly to reveal a big, fat, grey rat which disappeared under the stack of books lying on the ground.

Taking that as her cue she dropped the books and peaked outside before stepping out of the room cautiously. The librarian had her back turned towards and Katie slipped out before she was inspected by the guardsmen like any other.
