Haycartes' Pluperfect Method
Chapter 24: Interlude: the Bookshelf
Previous Chapter Next ChapterA small shelf of books hung over an empty plush bed.
One of the books- the leftmost one on the shelf- glowed softly with a violet light. All of the books had a slight glow, but that first book stood out compared to the others.
The light slid off the book and onto the next book on the shelf…
… but before the light had completely left the first book, a spark, like a static discharge, leaped from the spine of the first book to the spine of the second.
A moment’s flash, and the spark was gone.
The books remained.
