Nice bonuses. There was a slight sense of disappointment he had not gained additional class points. He hadn’t since his first class change to Hedge Witch. Class points seemed to be reserved for extraordinary quest rewards.

Perhaps saving the city would qualify.

The additional intelligence and wisdom pushed those base attributes to twenty-one. Dismissing the message, he closed his eyes for a moment as a wave of tingling sensation passed through his mind. He felt his thoughts become clearer, his observations and conclusions come that much faster. Opening his eyes, looked around the underground room and felt like he was taking in all the details at once.

He stood in an office absolutely stuffed with books. The books were piled in every corner, stacked on shelves from floor to ceiling, sometimes too deep to fit all of them. In the middle of the room stood a dusty writing desk with even more books stacked higher than he stood. This was an entire mini library, and a treasure that had been long forgotten.

Corvus stepped to the closest shelves and read over the titles:

Theories of Barrier Circles, Common Glyphs, Runic Herb Lore… and on and on. Each book was an aspect of runecraft.

This was an absolute treasure trove. And if he had not seen the trapdoor runes, he would have brought the building down on top of it, and possibly buried it forever.

To stop the ratkin, he still had to.

Now Corvus knew why the Path system had brought him here and knew he had no time to peruse. He started shoving interesting books into his Bag of Holding.

He had four bags, thanks to the loot from the Queen Rats. One of these was meant for Charm, but she had already outgrown the straps and he hadn’t had the time have them lengthened.

Thankfully, the books stacked in his inventory slots based on general subject. Space wasn’t a problem.

What he didn't have was the weight.

Each Bag of Holding reduced the weight of the books by 10%.

Stacking one Bag of Holding within another compounded this effect. The effect was quite noticeable, especially for the bag within the bag within the bag within the bag.

Still, Corvus had to be choosy. And he had to be fast.

His eyes skimmed greedily over the shelves, then skipped to the desk. Surely, the most important books would be there.

As he stepped to the desk, he saw it had a single drawer inlaid on top. It was locked by runes, but these had degraded over time in a way the trap door runes had not.

Corvus pulled it open without having to use mana. Inside, sat a journal.
