Ruined Book 소설 & 이야기

Ruby The loss of the precious book struck a devastating blow on me, as it held the key to the healing knowledge I desperately needed, and now it was gone, leaving me feeling confused and lost. The thought of failing the challenge given to me by Madam Nelly pressed down on me, and this wasn't even about failing the already impossible task—the book was an invaluable guide owned by my grandmother for almost a thousand years. It was also passed down to her by her own grandmother, but now it is gone.

Verity walked round the table, pulled a chair beside me and sat down, looking at me with great interest. “Inside books?” she whispered, as if we were discussing top secret information. “Before my brain short-circuits. Explain it to me.” “Ok. Listen. Wordswood had libraries everywhere, right?” I closed my book and concentrated on explaining all that Ruin showed me. “Yes.” “And what are libraries or universities running on?” “Books!”

She muttered to herself, "It’s over. It’s all over." By masquerading as Uncle Royce’s daughter, Wendy had managed to accumulate a massive fortune through criminal channels. However, she squandered every cent before receiving a ten-year prison sentence for her fraudulent activities. Though a promising life once lay ahead of her, she ultimately brought about her own ruin. Nonetheless, I had no interest in their self-inflicted downfall. I was ready to start a new chapter and embrace a brighter future.

“Failing badly enough that I have to keep touching your hand to fix it.” “I have no idea what you’re talking about,” I said, and threw another stone that sank immediately, and he laughed, pulling me against him, the sound of it easy and unguarded in a way I still wasn’t used to hearing from him, even after everything. In the afternoon we found a small shop near the harbor selling nothing anyone actually needed, hand-thrown pottery and secondhand books and jars of local honey, and Damien bought a mug shaped unevenly, clearly made by someone still learning the craft, because I’d picked it up and turned it over twice before setting it back down.

she mumbled, obviously surprised by my sudden appearance. Tears quickly rolled down my eyes upon seeing her. I weakly leaned my body against her, asking for her support. “He didn’t trust me, enough. I love him yet he ruined our marriage,” I whispered against my sobs and let myself broke down in pain. Yes, he's the one who ruined it. He might have seen me naked with another guy but I know nothing happened. If anything did… he would have known I didn’t want it to happen at all. He really did it intentionally.

Shaun agreed, then added, “Speaking of which. Did you ever find Monday’s Trouble?” Oh, right. I needed to give that to the Librarian and see how much it was going to cost me. “Uh, yeah…” I said, hesitant. “I did, but it was… I mean, its ruined… I’m not sure how it happened, but it got torn to two. I was trying to fix it, but it doesn’t seem possible. It looks like I’m going to have to pay for a replacement.” “Torn in two? How did that happen?”

So no one must stay alive unless they’re useful, that’s only when my time to reign comes' Laughing evilly with that thought he averted his gaze from the outside. Then, he started walking out of the room until he remembered the book that he found earlier before his lesson started It was a book containing the olden structure of the empire of Mestia, the long-forgotten empire that was ruined thousands of years ago. Many people that knew the empire wrote their knowledge in a book. Other books were already destroyed, as it was a forbidden book. A forbidden book that was destined to destroy an empire with the knowledge it gives. But because some of them were not found, those that were not found we

At the bottom, the old archives opened around me. Or what remained of them. Shelves leaned at impossible angles. Entire sections had disappeared beneath fallen stone. Books covered the floor, their leather bindings warped and split. Some had burned almost completely. Others had survived the flames only to be destroyed by water. I lifted the lantern higher. This was going to take forever. I started anyway. The first book nearly crumbled in my hands. The second had nothing readable left. The third was trade records. I kept going. My fingers blackened with dust and soot as I moved deeper into the ruins.

Her irises lowered and traced the marks on most parts of her body, mocking her ruination. "Why?" Her damaged soul complained. Why was she so helpless? A stranger came out of no where and ruined her whole life in a night. Her mind pledged her body not to smile ever again. She lost her reason to survive. She wasn't living anyway. After demise of her parents, she was merely surviving yet this right was also taken from her. After yesterday's night, what was the purpose now? Her blurry eyes studied the surroundings. The door was unlocked and open, illuminating the whole room with bright light.

There was a scattering of ancient books, their pages bleached and damaged by exposure to water and sun through the gaps in the roof. “Oh, no,” I mourned the loss and immediately began to gather the books from the floor and stack them, closed, on the tabletops. Many were mouldy and heavy with damp, and I did not honestly know whether closing them was preserving or irreparably damaging them, and yet there was no space to spread them all open, and all I could do was lift them up above the ground in the hope that would be enough to dry them. “Spell books,” Aien commented as he helped me. “It’s unwise to leave them open.”
