As Arad walked out of Mary's room and headed downstairs, he came in contact with one of the nuns who came to bring him in. She looked at him for a moment. "The guards have brought some books for you. Please follow me."
Arad followed the nun down to the main chamber, where he saw a mound of books and scrolls piled up on a wooden table. The poor little wooden creation bent in the middle like a smiling face, a single fly would crack it in half.
"Sir Arad, we've brought the books you asked for." One of the three guards standing there approached Arad, saluted him, and announced. "The basics of magic, all elements, history of the world, maps, kingdom laws and politics, and some books about culture and what is considered normal and what isn't."
Arad looked at the book and lifted a brown one. The fine leather cover was already rotting away, this thing must've sat in a library for years without getting touched. [The Art of Speech] This book is about conversation and its ethics.
