Majesty pauses. They lean on the shelf, hand on their chin.
"We could probably try to find a way out ourselves?" They shrug.
"Clei told us to stay put." Kno glared at them. "Do you prefer it if we got lost where Clei can't find us?"
"Well, I don't know!" Majesty huffs. "What do you want to do?"
Wordlessly, Kno raises the thick history book they brought with them.
Majesty groans. "We are not scaling through a history book to pass the time."
"You can just look at the pictures," Kno points out. "You can't deny that they have good pictures."
Majesty grumbles and crosses their arms. "They do, but..."
Kno gives them a smug smile. "But?"
Majesty throws their hands up in the air in indignation. "But no!"
"Suit yourself." Kno opens the book, ignoring Majesty's glares. "This books was created with the help of the Historian's Historical Association, and sponsored by-"
Majesty groans loudly and puts their foot on one of the shelves.
Kno furrows their brow. "-What are you doing?"
"I'm going to scale the shelf," Majesty says with a flat tone.
Kno pauses. "You're going to what?"
Majesty doesn't answer them and begins to climb the shelf. Their high dexterity allows them to do so with very little struggle, and they soon find themselves on top of a 20 foot shelf.
They jump with a grin on their face as they do. That took really long! Ten minutes, maybe. Five? Fifteen? They certainly hope it was fifteen.
They peek out from on top of the shelf, looking around the library. Suddenly, they begin to see.....
...more shelves. This was rather anti climatic. Even worse, none of them have any distinguishing features! It's a good thing they have a friend who works at the library to help them, huh?
They're about to climb down until they hear the scratching of wood. A sound close to them.
Their body tenses up. Their breaths become shallow.
Their eyes look up to search for the source.
Inconveniently, the lights begin to dim. Not good.
The scratching of wood begins to fade. They hear something slithering away.
Maybe it was just their imagination?
They're not sure what to do. They want to chase after the sound or hide away from it, but Kno is waiting for them, after all.
What now?
