New books! The smell of new books is in the air!
Well, they're not what one would call “new” though. It seems Philippa has found some books to borrow from the village library. A “new” set of books have just arrived at the request of the village school head, Geeta. Everyone's extremely happy about it. They've got a book about Eastern Herbs and also a guide to Potions of the Ages, for crying out loud! But no one beats an early bird, Philippa says. She must borrow the new darlings before the others do or else she'll never get her hands on them! Well, maybe for at least a week or so. Except for Dorian -- he never returns the books on time, or at all for that matter.
