Finding the Book Heaven (1)

"So I just have to find the library?" Zero asked and Truen looked around. The fallen city was very much a labyrinth with obstacles everywhere in the form of broken bridges, rusted machinery and abandoned buildings. The small raiding party took their time to slowly map out the area as they move along, Jermine with her vibration sensing, Zero with his map and Truen with his arrows.

The master of Gnaway was nervous. Ever since they entered the city, not a single trap had been triggered. In fact, they've been swiftly dodged, avoided or disarmed. Frustrated that they were progressing too quickly, the ruin master decided to spice it up. If they won't trigger the traps, he would bring it to them. Zero wanted to prove his sincerity and worth so this much should be alright.

The clatter of metal and low grinding sound of rocks made Jermine perk up alertly. She couldn't tell what these things were nor sensed any dangerous magic but there was an unsettling feeling.
