Author's note: this is from Aldus's point of view

I found Serina in the library, sitting between two piles of books; one on her left and one on her right. She had a paper and a pen in front of her and one book whose pages she would flip on every three-to-four seconds.
"Mhm…", I cleared my throat to make my presence known because she didn't react when I entered.
She smiled but didn't lift her gaze or stop flipping the pages, which made me curious about what she was doing.
Serina's eyes moved over the pages filled with drawings and text, like she was looking for something, but it was too quick to be able to read more than a sentence or two.
"What are you doing?", I asked finally.
"Trying out something…", she mumbled, and a few pages later, she closed the book and handed it to me. "Ask me something from here."
Her smug expression told me she is up to something.
