Schegerazade's Fear

Hello, traveler... What kind of a story would you like to hear? A story of a monster trapped in the mountain of snow? A story of a beautiful town inside the ocean? If not, then a story of a race, unlike any other, deep inside the forest?

I want to hear your story, actually.

My story? It's not a fun story to listen to. It's a story of a regular girl with a reputation for great storytelling, living in a regular town, who was dragged into the palace to... weave new stories while constantly trembling with fear.

What are you afraid of?

I am afraid of the day when I've told every single story I know. It'd be nice if I were sent back home then...but would the queen really do that? I doubt it. I'm scared of what she WOULD do. So I want to get new books, so I never run out of stories. Could you help me get some?

I am sure you've heard of the 赫爾奧斯塔圖書館, considered the biggest and best library in the world. Don't you think a library like that must contain a story or two that's never been heard before?

This might not work, but... 赫爾奧斯塔圖書館 is the only place I can think of. If I can find a way to get my hands on new storybooks, maybe I can buy more time. Please help me, traveler. Please borrow a book from 圖書館員 懷玆 for me.

Oh, I see. I guess there's no such thing as a courageous adventurer like in the stories...

Welcome to 赫爾奧斯塔圖書館. All the knowledge and records of Maple World is stored in here. Which book would you like to read...? What? You want me to help 沙惠拉吉德 of 納希綠洲城?

I don't think you've gone to 赫爾奧斯塔圖書館 yet... You can get there through 玩具城.
