The sound of footsteps echoed softly as Chris walked down a long, narrow passage.@@novelbin@@

The corridor was just wide enough to make movement difficult for two or three people walking side-by-side. But since Chris was alone, she moved easily. It seemed this passage was intended for a single person’s use.

Dim magical torches embedded in the walls gave off a faint glow, serving as subtle guides along the path.

“I never expected the palace to have a place like this,” Chris muttered as she walked, unable to hide her amazement.

A world where magic exists—such a narrow hallway showed almost no signs of wear from the thousand years it had likely stood.

Before long, a metal door appeared at the end of the passage.

Click.

With a light touch, Chris opened it.

“Oh wow.”

She looked around the room, impressed.

Chris had arrived in a small library.

A table and chairs were set up for reading and writing, and the room had an old-fashioned charm, with a few decorative items hinting at the tastes of its owner.

Bookshelves lined both side walls, filled with various books, and magic stones embedded throughout. They seemed enchanted to protect the books from moisture and decay.
