Minerva, immersed in the enchanting pages of "Windswept Realms," felt a thrill of discovery ripple through her. She marveled at Draconious, a realm far more extraordinary than she had ever imagined. Her physical frailty, usually so prominent, faded into the background as she lost herself in the book's depths. Despite her efforts, Minerva found it challenging to muster the motivation to leave the comfort of the story and return to Neptulius.
Clutching the book, her only strength lay in her ability to turn each page, unveiling more of this enigmatic world. However, Mirk's sudden appearance took Minerva by surprise.
"I see you've made yourself at home," he observed.
"I'm sorry," Minerva replied instinctively, a hint of embarrassment in her voice.
"No need for apologies," Mirk reassured her. "The vast knowledge of the Winds of Knowledge library is available to all who seek it. I'm intrigued by your choice of 'Windswept Realms.' If historical narratives captivate you, I recommend 'The Chronicles of War,' detailing the intricacies of epic battles and their key figures."
"I would love that," Minerva responded, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
"However, your presence is required back in Neptulius," Mirk informed her. "Willow awaits your return."
Reluctantly, Minerva closed "Windswept Realms," feeling an inexplicable force guiding her, affirming that her true calling was here, among the legendary books of the Winds of Knowledge library. Rising from her seat, she left the secrets of Draconious behind, her heart yearning for more.
As she walked towards the library's central platform, her eyes eagerly scanned the titles of other books: "Easy Magic Enchants in 3 Steps," "From Coal to Diamonds," "Summons for the Whole Family," "Words of the Past," "Cataclysm-Level Magic," "Forbidden Magic for Any Evil Overlord." The immense bookshelves, stretching skyward, filled her with awe and an insatiable desire to return and uncover the hidden secrets within these tomes.
Stepping onto the platform, Minerva left the magical world behind, but the invitation to explore further lingered in the air. The next page of "Windswept Realms" awaits at RelatoCorto.com, a portal to more mystical adventures.
