The library wasn't exactly the place for a chat. After hearing William's discourse on history, Edward thought of him as having a unique perspective on history, but he didn't realize that the person standing in front of him had actually lived through that era.
"If you're interested in history, how about we head over to Cozy Book Haven? I've left some books there, and I was planning to pick them up. Would you like to join me?" Edward found William intriguing. He had just sold the bookstore to Alice the day before, and many of his personal treasured books remained there.
Among those books were ancient volumes, some of which were the only known copies in the world. Naturally, they weren't for sale. These historical documents, being anecdotal and hard to verify, were of interest to Edward, and he was curious to know if William had any unique insights on them.
William smiled, "Sure."
