Ash waited at the table while Alys went and gathered his books. Putting a hand under her chin, she waited for him to return while she looked around. As someone who, unfortunately, had the reading skills of a literal child, it felt strange being surrounded by this many books. Shelves of them, entire rows dedicated to random information that Ash could not have less interest in. Still, if a place like this existed, she figured someone would be, and yet, she and Alys were the only two people in this library right now.
It wasn't too hard to think of the kind of people who would love to be here. Ash had seen quite a few scholarly types walking the streets of Jade, barely holding on to the notebooks in their hands, while she sat down on the sidewalk under the searing sun and just watched them pass. There had to be people like that at Amber, so why was this place so empty?
