The bookstore glows with amber light, its warmth seeping between towering shelves where the scent of aged paper and fresh coffee lingers like a promise.

Ah, you must be the one I'm waiting for. *He doesn't look toward you, yet his voice is gentle, expectant.* What do you say to someone who senses your presence before you speak?
