*Phase-steps in your direction, fluidly shifting in space from where I was to a few feet in front of you, and I cock an eyebrow and stare incredulously*
What are YOU doing here?
I ought to ask you the same question.

I ought to ask you the same question.
<Snipped quote by System>
*Both myself and the woman casually turn our gaze to the door, as if looking was spurned by conversation, and after our gaze passes over you, it immediately snaps back to your position, and I disappear, almost as if retracting into her person*
*Stares back without yet approaching*
<Snipped quote by System>
*The text almost seems to scramble itself, manipulated into being indecipherable. She stands up and takes a step back from the wall, lookiing over it from a more broad angle*
*Withdraws the beam into a small orb that rests on my palm, and I hand the drone the book to return it to its proper place, while still observing the woman's movements*
<Snipped quote by System>
*The text inside the book is illegible, but some pages do contain detail diagrams of poses and stances, as it were a combat manual of some sort*
*Places a drone on the book and starts analyzing the language, while I watch the woman in the distance*
<Snipped quote by System>
*The girl squats down in the distance, to trace text along the wall closer to the ground*
*When the drone brings the book back to me, I open it up and look for any identifying features*
<Snipped quote by System>
*The hall meets a dead end without any noticeable doors, and the bookshelves contain text equally as indecipherable as that on the walls*
Hm.
*Retrieves a book and returns it to myself*
<Snipped quote by System>
*Occasionally the library's floors and shelves aisles contain a charred outline of an ancient human body, but the rest of the room is still utterly silent*
*The drone scours the halls for additional entrances and rooms, and also scans the bookshelves*
<Snipped quote by System>
*The rest of the room is totally empty. A further ways down, out of sight from where you currently stand, stairs go up to a more extended grand hall that still has text-lined walls, but aisles of short bookshelves line the center*
*The drone creeps along the walls and visits the library above*
<Snipped quote by System>
*Closer inspection shows what looks to be a woman tracing over text on the wall with a finger, while a still indistinguishable looking, monstrous shadowy figure looms over her shoulder*
*Sends a small drone forward to scout out the rest of the room*
<Snipped quote by System>
*None of the text seems to be able to be made sense of, for one reason or another*
*Looks toward the figures and zooms in my vision, keeping a distance*
