Descending the stairs to the Library of the Magi, Kaizen felt the familiar, comforting atmosphere of his personal haven.
The aisles between the bookshelves looked narrow from above, filled with dusty tomes and time-worn scrolls. The soft light of candles in the chandeliers created a mysterious and welcoming atmosphere. Upon entering the library, Kaizen found Alina absorbed in her studies near her mainly desk. She was surrounded by stacks of books, some open, revealing detailed illustrations and ancient texts.
The mage was also sitting in a tall, elegant chair, her eyes bright with curiosity as she carefully leafed through the scrolls.
"Kaizen! How nice that you are here!" exclaimed Alina, raising her gaze and smiling warmly at him. "I have some fascinating information to share with you about that third option of ours, the Tear Flower of Isara."
