The library was empty, save for Mentor. He had feeling particularly melancholy (no change there), and was spending his time reading books. For Mentor, "reading" meant sticking his head inside a book and reading whatever text he found. It was a droll way to read, and made him long for his days of flesh and blood. However, once cursed, always cursed. He tired of reading in such a way. If only there was some kind of automatic page turning device for him to read like a mortal again. Maybe then, he'd be a bit more human.

Roman had found a portal and crossed over. His time learning about them had been useful. This place was filled with magic, and could no doubt aid him in his quest for power. All of these books as well...they should hold the knowledge that he sought, the power he craved. He walked through the rows of books, skimming the spines. Where should he even begin?

Mentor had chosen an unfortunate moment to stick his head through a book, and find someone entering through a portal. He didn't withdraw his head.
"The door works just as well, you know." he drawled.

A ghost? He had to be, or it was magic at work.
"A door only works from two sides. It's of no use if you're not on either."

"How delightfully abstract of you." Mentor withdrew his head and walked through the bookshelf. "What can I help you with? I am your servant."

"Power," he said. He didn't know how to take this man's servant comment, but he could strike him down if need be. He assumed.

Mentor smirked. "Someone after my own heart." he said. "There's plenty of power here. You won't find any forbidden texts, though, if that's what you're after."

"Where would I find those?" he questioned.

"A fireplace." Mentor replied. "They were all burned."

"Surely there must be records. Some surviving information."

"Oh, I'm sure there are." he said. "I have no idea where they are."

"Then show me anything of worth that wasn't burned."

"This way." Mentor turned and walked further into the library.

"What happened to make you a ghost?" he questioned. Well, death obviously, but there was probably magic at play.

"You don't know?" Mentor raised an eyebrow. "Most who come here know."
