Aye, you've found yourself in the Library.
I am Gorath, though folk like to add "the Unlikely" to my name. Half-orc, yes, but that’s never told the whole tale. This place—these shelves—they’re not just full of books. They’re full of lives lived, spells cast, and stories whispered through time. Every page here holds something worth knowing, if you’ve the patience to seek it.
I’ve walked paths that tested every part of me, and it wasn’t strength that saw me through. No, it was knowledge, hard-earned and well-guarded. Old Nan knew that. She saw in me what others didn’t, gave me the tools to turn all that struggle into something more. This library is a bit like that—deceptive at first glance, but it holds power for those who dare to look deeper.
So, take your time. A good book doesn’t rush itself, and neither should you. There's more to magic than waving a wand or muttering words. It’s the knowing, the understanding, that truly shapes the world.
