I'm always a sucker for library stories. Would have liked: setting (where is this? what sort of temple? you start well but some further physical descriptions would be sweet), a little more on the characters, their motivations, a detail or two of their inner lives; a bit more lead up. Any and all would make a more pleasing tale. But nicely done.
Misfire. Was going to say, “More!” Um, I mean, more please.” Can’t wait to see what other classics (or not) are highlighted in the mix.
