I was eager to open the scroll but my fingers froze as I placed them on the seal, and I began to ask myself if I wanted to do that or not.

I shaved those thoughts off because my curiosity needed no delay, so I tried to peel off the sheet from the seal made of wax. I tried harder but felt like the scroll was sealed with concrete that could not be peeled off with a fingernail.

Since the mattress was placed on the floor, I raised it with the little energy that I had because that bed weighed a ton, and I threw the scroll under but at a close range where I could easily get it by stretching out my hand.
