Lady Hathor stood up from her couch and closed the book in her hands, its extravagant silver binding flicking in the candlelight, contrasting the woman's warm yellow skin with its metallic sheen.

Lady Hathor turned and walked slowly towards one of the many rows of bookshelves, guiding me further into the enormous sanctum of books, its wooden appearance softened by the beautiful tapestries that hung on the walls as well as the red and gold rugs that rested atop the wooden floorboards.
