Fortunately for Brian, with the ingenious help of Hegram the Stonespeaker, the library's latent self-awareness had already foreseen his arrival.

Its voice seemed to be squeezed out from the inside of a solid rock, and it announced in a low and sluggish voice:
"Mr. Brian, you are finally here, come here quickly! I am inspired by the book I have been asked by the museum to guide you to the entrance. I have been waiting for you for a long time.”
