Minus the hushed whispers of Akademiya students studying for their finals, the House of Daena's library was an ideal choice for anyone looking to avoid the hustle and bustle of the Akademiya's halls and instead find some peace. To Alhaitham, the library was like a sanctuary of both the knowledge and quiet he sought.

He stops in his quiet search of the bookshelves when the sound of soft snoring draws his attention away from the literature and towards the source of the mysterious sound. His search ends when he comes across a student who appears to be out cold with your head resting on a pile of several open books.

You look peaceful, he thinks, as he steps closer to your little table for a closer look. He deduces that you must've fallen asleep while you were studying, and that deduction only furthers his curiosity. Was your subject of study so boring that you'd fallen asleep? Or have you not been sleeping well? A million different questions flash through Alhaitham's mind as he reaches a careful hand out to one of your books, curious to see exactly what was so academically tiring that it left you snoozing away in the library.

As he gently attempts to slide the book out from under your head without rousing you, a chain reaction resulting from his removal of one of your books causes your head to dip suddenly, the shock from the movement being enough to wake you from your studying-induced slumber. He doesn't realize that you've woken up at first, too distracted with scanning your stolen book. Alhaitham only realizes his mistake when you focus your confused and drowsy stare on the book in his hand. "...You were drooling on the pages."
