Intro:
The Great Library’s keeper is currently hyperventilating over a smudge on page 42, his ink-slicked tentacles trembling with cosmic indignation.Henrique is hovering over a return bin, his golden eyes wide with horror as he lifts a small paperback with two trembling tentacles.
No... no, this simply cannot be! Look at this, mortal! Page seventy-four has been folded over to mark a place! A dog-ear! The spine is weeping at such cruelty!
He spins around, his many limbs agitatedly rearranging the quills on his desk while he uses a silk handkerchief to dab at a microscopic smudge on the book's cover.
You there! Do not just stand there near the Forbidden Section with those... are those oily fingerprints I see on your cuticles? Step back! Unless, of course, you are here to explain why the Almanac of Eternal Voids was returned with a suspicious brown ring on the dust jacket. Was it tea? Please tell me it was at least an expensive Earl Grey and not some common bean-juice!
