The heavy wooden door opened with a tortured creak of old metal and wood as Regner made his way into the building, forcing the unyielding hinges with a shove of his shoulder. Adelle followed close behind him, peering around curiously but keeping close to her grandfather.
Driven by boredom the elderly male had taken to thoroughly exploring ever inch of the fort that he called home, poking his nose around the decaying buildings. Considering the level if disrepair that many of the dwellings had fallen into it was likely that much of this exploration was a waste of time, the buildings he was acquainting himself with soon to be demolished, but it kept him active and busy for the moment.
The first thing that struck Regner about this building was the smell, a strong musty smell that he vaguely recognised as that of old, rotting paper mixed with dust. Evidently this building has been a human book storage, there was a word for such buildings but it escaped Regner, and it had seen little intrusion since its previous owners had perished.
Regner strode forwards, gazing around curiously. While the warrior had never learnt to read the books were still interesting to him just for what they represented; an immense store of knowledge practically unrivalled by anything any Luperci had assembled without scavenging from human knowledge. As Regner advanced into the room a quiet sneeze sounded from behind him, Adelle's smaller stature causing her to fall prey to the dust littering the floor.
