I nodded, that was very good to know, I had spotted a number of books back in the vault that I had left because of the curses, I would have to add a stop to the vault to my list of things to do the next time I went to the vaults unless I found the same books in the library here, "I believe I will go and see the library now, I'm quite eager to begin my studying."
Orion seemed to smirk, "you sound too much like a Ravenclaw, knowledge is good but only when it is useful, remember that." He told me.
I nodded and turned to leave before smirking, "all knowledge is useful, one just has to know the right time to use it," I could hear the portrait of my grandfather let of an amused chuckle as I walked out.
------
Considering the library and the lords office are next door to each other it was a relatively short walk to the double doors.
I had originally not planned to learn anything in here until I got through what books I already had in the library in my trunk and I still didn't but it could never hurt just to take a quick peek at just what I had to work with once I was finished with what I had.
Putting my hands on the double doors I tried to open them but they wouldn't budge and I scowled but before I could do anything further my grandmother's painting spoke up.
"You will have to use your Heir ring to get in, before my death I used my magic to seal the library off, I didn't want to risk the Black library or our family grimoires falling into unworthy hands before they could be rightfully claimed." Walburga's portrait told me.
I nodded in understanding as I moved to place my heir ring to the doors, the mention of grimoires had caught my attention somewhat.
As I had never heard mention of such things in either the books nor the movies but I had in the fanfictions and I couldn't help but feel a little excited about seeing what was inside them.
with my heir ring once again in placed I spoke out as I felt the magic flow, around the door and my ring before fading as I demanded entry.
When I was down I simply pushed forward and the doors opened and my eyes widened at what I saw.
The room was huge, no strike that huge doesn't even begin to describe how big this room is. It had to be at least three floors high.
I walked inside in a state of awe, it was incredible, there enough space for ten or twelve people to stand side by side at least and wave their arms about freely.
There were old looking but comfortable sofas, chairs and small tables around the place with a large main table at the crossroads where the room broke off in a sort of cross or X like profile.
At each of the curves in the profile of the room, there was a ladder that I saw leading up to each of the walkways of which there were two evenly spaced.
As I neared the middle of the room I couldn't help but be amazed, I don't think that even Hogwarts has a library this extensive, but given my views on how limited the subject matter of Hogwarts is that isn't hard to believe.
And once more I was broken from my thoughts by a voice, this one knew to me.
"I don't believe I have seen you before," the male voice spoke, "though it has been a while since I've seen anyone," it added as I turned to find the source to be another portrait.
"My name is Magnus Roark Black, the newly recognised heir to house Black" I introduced myself and showed my heir ring.
The man in the portrait, who looked to be very late fashioned robes making it hard to tell what time era he was from given the wizarding worlds sense of clothing seemed to have stagnated in the late sixteenth century, nodded at my words when he saw my ringring.
"I see, well this is very exciting isn't it. I am Arcturus Black, the first, and you are most welcome here. It is good to see the house of Black will be able to recover, after the death of Walburga I had feared we would be absorbed by another house, you are our saving grace young man. But might I ask why I have not seen you before this day?"
I nodded, "My father, Regulus, died before I could be introduced to the family, same with my mother, I was left at a muggle orphanage, and only just found out my heritage today."
Arcturus nodded his head, "I am sorry to hear about your father, Regulus was a good man it broke his mother's heart when he disappeared, no one ever found out what happened to him.
She held out hope but when she finally got the courage to check with Gringotts it was confirmed his vault had merged with the main vault, confirming his death"
I nodded not sure what else to say about the matter, in truth I kind of felt a bit like I was intruding on another person's moment here, given that I had my own memories of my life before this, something else I will have to get over, this is my life now, my past life is gone, there's no going back.
Luckily, probably sensing I didn't know what else to say Arcturus changed the subject, "Might I ask what bring you to the Black Library this day, are you just exploring your new home?" he asked.
I smiled, "actually I was wanting to learn as much as I could before I began Hogwarts next month, and I have a lot to learn given that I wasn't part of this world for eleven years."
