Alledyra looked around the library slowly, her eyes glowing faintly from the shadows, and wondered what exactly had drawn her here...or who. Turning a corner, she slipped silently down a hallway, away from the main library, and found a stairwell leading up towards the balcony and upstairs library, her steps taking her quickly past the opening. A few more steps, and she found the mural she was seeking, almost unconciously, and paused, her hands feeling the tile slowly, probing it uneasily, her eyes shifting down the hallway in quick jerking movements. Her fingers caught on something, a smoothness or warmth that she pressed on, triggering the lock that opened the secret passage, and lead down a narrow stair. Following the strange path, she almost felt like she was floating down the stairs, uneasily staring at the faint glow that seeped around her. Her breath puffed into the cold air before her, as she paused on a packed dirt floor, in a room far older than anything she'd been inside in a very long time. Stepping into the room, her eyes slowly adjusted to the near total darkness, the only light the faint glow that seemed to be coming from her own eyes, causing a deep fear that she couldn't shake. Why was she glowing...and where was she going...and most importantly, what exactly was guiding her. She paused as her mind circled those thoughts once again, before her voice rang out, hesitantly, "H..Hello?" Her voice seemed to echo for a moment as she waited for a reply...
