46th of Winter, 511 AV
This was… well, this was the most terrifying thing he'd ever seen. He flinched as the smallest quiver, expecting gravity and logic to catch up, and make the water gush out sensibly. It didn't happen, of course. The water stayed confined within the door, just sitting still like there was a pane of glass between him and the water. Poking his finger in, he confirmed there wasn't.
Still, in all honesty, it wasn't that much weirder than the rest of Alvadas. Pulling the last strands of thread out of his hair and shaking the last few feathers loose, he took a deep breath, and stepped into the water. Inside, he frowned, feeling the gills bloom across his chest. Interesting. Breathing water. Well, he certainly wasn't going to question it.
Awkwardly swimming around, he offered an apologetic grin to the librarian, who simply gave him a look and returned to her book. Staring around, he wondered how he was ever going to be able to find anything. He had never seen a library this large before, underwater or otherwise. Then again, he hadn't seen many libraries.
Well, since he didn't have any particular books in mind, he swam in the direction of the nearest bookshelf. Looking up, Sasin grinned, and pushed himself up off the floor, launching himself towards the ceiling. Grabbing on to the shelves, he treaded water to keep himself at that approximate level, and started browsing.
Grabbing a few books, he drifted down to one of the tables, doing a midwater backflip for fun. He could get used to being in water. Settling down, he picked up the first book on his pile, "Magic and I". What he read fascinated him.
