I woke up gasping ' Wow what a trip ! ' I start to rub my head and I feel a headache creeping up on me. ' A little warning would have been nice'
I am starting to think The Ancient One takes pleasure in messing with people.

Plus that trick she likes to play with pretending she's not the Ancient One and making an old man pretend to be her.

I guess living for a few centuries makes you a troll. I imagine it gets boring after a couple of hundred years.

You must eventually reach a point where you have done and seen everything there's to do and see in life after living so long.

I wonder what I would become like if I lived for so long I'd probably be a major troll and troll everybody until they curse my name or have nightmares about me.

Hmm... probably bang a few alien chicks and try to get it on with a few female superheros.

After a few minutes of fantasizing about things I probably wouldn't get to do. I start scanning the room I am in. It looks like the room Dr. Strange was in while training in the Mystic Arts.

I wonder if they are all the same or if she's doing it on purpose. I guess they brought me here after I came back from my astral trip through the multiverse. I know it was necessary to open my third eye and all, but a little warning would have been nice.

Screaming like a little girl wasn't my idea of a good first impression.

I sit up in my bed and I start meditating. I think I feel something is different. Like a sense I didn't know I had was unlocked. It feels strange and hard to describe.

I try to reach deeper and get a better sense of what I am feeling, but I can't quite get it. After a few minutes I open my eyes and sigh. I think what I am feeling is magic.

I don't know if I am doing it wrong, but it seems I will have to ask the Ancient One or read a book or something.

It's a good thing I like reading because I think I will be doing a lot of it in the foreseeable future.

I get off my bed and I find my bag next to the bed. I head towards the door and as I reach towards the handle.

The door suddenly opens which makes me jump in suprise. A man in green robes with a stoic look on his face looks at me and says " The Ancient One has told me to show you the library follow me."

He then turns around and starts walking before I can even process what's happening.
' Is she doing this on purpose ?! ' I am certain she is trolling me somehow. How is she doing it ?
I start following the man as he is almost at the end of the corridor.

He takes me through a few more corridors and after a few lefts and rights. We finally reach the library. Immediately, the first thing that drew my attention was an ornate table in the center of the large room.

At said table were three young people in monk's robes with yellow sashes, avidly studying over a large tome. Surrounding that was a maze of simple bookshelves made from a lacquered redwood of some kind, and a sporadic placement of intricately carved pillars. From the entrance, I couldn't see much more than that, though. The bookshelves were in the way.

I followed him as he leads me through the bookshelves.

Not long after, We arrived at a desk where a diminutive man sat, looking over a ledger and clicking a pen repeatedly.

He just nodded to him and turns to me and says "This is Master Yun if you have questions about any books he can answer them. Any books you check out will be noted in this ledger.
