They traversed a final long tunnel, and stopped at a heavy wooden door. The priest put his ear against the door and listened. After a long period of silence, he pushed open the door.
Three stone steps led down into a large cave. Torches were arranged in a circle around the curved walls, and their light on the unflattened stone created complex jagged shadows on the walls, ceilings and floors. Wooden doors were distributed unevenly on the walls, and shelves full of books, bottles and jars filled the areas between them, wherever there was a good formation to which a shelf could cling.
A dozen or so apprentices paid no attention to the entering group. Some walked in and out of the side rooms, carrying bottles and jars and bags. Others sat at desks, reading from heavy bound tomes, or stood, hard at work at a variety of tasks.
