Purpose: Getting a job
After a bell or so of wandering, Amarhyl found herself outside of a place called ‘The Sunken Conundrum’. It was a curious name, and a curious building. She stopped a passerby to ask what it was, and her face lit up as the word “library” was heard. She turned back to the door, paused, and then opened it.
What she saw was completely unexpected. She took an involuntary step back, fearful that the water she saw here would spill out of the building. When it didn’t her brows knitted together in both confusion and fascination. The doorway was completely filled with water, yet it was perfectly still like a sheet of glass. She reached out tentatively to touch it, and her hand slid easily through its surface. When she pulled back, the water stayed still, not even a ripple crossing its surface. It was then that she noticed the sign on the back of the door. The young woman’s head tilted slightly. How curious…
She took a breath, and then stepped through into the water.
Immediately she felt something along her ribs and neck. Reaching a hand to her neck she felt tiny gills. She exhaled in surprise, a stream of bubbles leaving her mouth. She moved forward, feeling the water filter through the gills and fill her lungs with air. It was the strangest feeling she had ever experienced, one that she was sure would take a while to get used to. She spent a minute getting accustomed to swimming through the room, and then went in search of the desk.
