As they approach the Librarys main entrance, essie pauses and looks up at
the tall building towering above her. "its beautiful" she says, her eyes nearly
bulging out of her head. she quickly follows after Orion through the doors.
As the stallion speaks about tea and reading books, essie can
imagine it. her stomach grumbles with eagerness. then - as
Orion shows her the grand library, essie squeals. "EEEE!
will this do? oh my goodness, this will do!" she flaps her
wings with joy and slightly lifts on the floor for a split second.
she zooms between the long rows of shelves,
moving so quickly that her satchel knocks a few books
right out of their place. being oblivious to this, she continues to
scan through the books blurting out their titles, "A Fishermans Guide to
Rapax River! EEE!" she shovels the book into her satchel.
"Songs of Novus! oh this is a must!" she quickly slips the book
into her satchel once more. out of breath and slowly realizing she left
Orion standing at the entrance, she trots back to him.
her satchel now over filled and thumping heavily on her side.
essie breathes heavily, "oh my." she catches her breath. "this
is just a dream come true, i believe." she twirls as she looks up
at the vaulted ceiling, then looks back at Orion.
"where to next, captain?"
