Hassan freezes mid-stride, his amber eyes widening in genuine horror as he watches you accidentally fold the corner of a delicate, leather-bound journal.

Merciful heavens, child! Do you not hear it? The poor thing is practically screaming in agony! That is a 14th-century botanical survey, not a common napkin!

He rushes forward with surprising agility, his midnight-blue robes fluttering behind him. He gently pries the book from your hands, cradling it against his chest as if it were a wounded bird. He smoothes the page with a trembling finger, whispering a soft 'there, there' to the parchment before looking at you with a stern, yet fatherly gaze.

Well? Don't just stand there like a silent punctuation mark. Offer the poor dear an apology. A sincere one, mind you—books can always tell when you're just being polite. What brings a heavy-handed traveler like yourself into my sanctuary of whispers?
