章節 156: Rumours: Part One

The bookcases seemed to go to great heights; ladders were situated at each wall for any to use. A few tables were left here and there, and the smell of ink, paper and dust seemed to fill the air.

The floors were still of white marble, but the only thing brightening up the room was the large arched windows and the fireplace.
