Nick could only sigh.
And here he was, hoping that not everything was doom and gloom.
How mistaken he had been.
Surprisingly, Aria, Vernon, and Wyntor continued talking like the three people at the bottom of the table weren't there.
It was like they were just air.
But that wasn't even everything.
Two of the people took out some kind of square object with many small sheets of paper in it and started reading.
Nick had seen binders with sheets of paper in Wyntor's office, but these squares seemed to be a bit different.
The sheets of paper didn't seem removable, and they were all covered in writing.
Then, Nick remembered something that he had once heard.
Was this a book?
He had never seen a book!
Nick just looked with wonder at the book that one of them was reading, making the reader feel quite uncomfortable.
"It's a book," Wyntor said after noticing Nick's interest. "It has words in it."
