Books reminded him of studying until recently, where he poured over books about natural life with Ciri. He didn't get the reference as he had seen very few films and slipped inside before Duncan was able to stop him. "Hi," he said almost absently, inspecting the wall near him before the rest of the room. "Ciri wants you to drink hot chocolate with her and me. Do you have any swords?" He'd seen pictures in books and now he wanted to see one up close - it made sense that the very old man would have one.
Duncan had better say yes because how could he refuse Ciri's request? Tad's eyes widened as he saw a globe, looking much different than what he remembered. He spun it and then moved to one of the bookcases where the old books were. Were there any nature books? Tad took a sci-fi romance novel and flipped through it to see if there were any pictures. No. It went back on the shelf. "Do you have any books about golems?" This was a very important question and he met Duncan's eyes with a serious expression.
