1. Arrival – You wake up in the main hall. The reception desk is behind you and you know you heard someone whispering “Save us” in your ear… but where are you? The hall gleams and there are many doors amongst the shelves of books. It is rather huge and a walkway circles a second floor… where are you? Well… you might want to ask.

2. Market Place – The Central Library has turned the large conference room into an open gateway to a market place. It shifts and changes along with the Library, but food is always available to those living there as long as the portal is open. Step into a Parisian market of modern day, an open market of the Dark Ages, or even a trading post in the Old West. Go shopping, take a stroll… your imagination is your only limit.

3. Go Out to Dinner – There aren’t many places to go out to eat in The Central Library, in fact, it is best to keep food to the living quarters. But when you go through portals in events, you experience whole new worlds from every era and every place. Possibly you may sit in at the Mad Tea Party or even dine in the Great Hall at Hogwarts. You pick. You decide…

4. Non-Fiction Immersion – Did the groundhog see its shadow? Another strange forecast has invaded the Library. This time the wayward weather can’t decide if it’s winter or spring. Be prepared for snow showers, bouts warm almost summery sunshine, and driving rain. There may even be a thunderstorm waiting to catch the unwary. Close the books that the weather escaped from before both books and patrons become victims to the confused weather.

5. Fiction Invasion – When pigs fly… It’s supposed to be just a saying, right? In some reality, it’s more than that. These little piggies have flown the coup! For something that isn’t aerodynamic, they’re far more graceful in the air than on the ground. They’re also hungry. Keep them from nibbling on the furniture or the patrons’ favorite possessions. Thanks to the help of the Librarians the books are piglet repellent but the patrons may find themselves being aggravated by these cute, feathered ‘friends’. Return them to the book on the reception desk to keep the Library pig-free!

6. Cleaning is Necessary – You are stuck here, you might want to make it home. Being in such disrepair, it needs a little love and care. I’m sure the janitor’s closets have some tools… Ones that have a life of their own they are rather testy about where they go and the cleaning supplies have a life of their own. (Think The Sorcerer’s Apprentice and the servants in Beauty and the Beast).

7. A posse ad esse – Anything is possible. This is your Wild Card. Have fun with it!
librarian167: Flynn from The Librarian, looking really young (Thinking)

Flynn tapped the mop that was headed straight towards him, sending it on a slightly more diagonal path. A sidestep from Flynn and the mop missed him, as it headed further down the corridor.

Flynn carried on, finding Cassandra at the closet and guessing she was the reason the mop was out. "Did you do something to that mop?" he asked her. His tone was curious, not accusatory.

"All I did was open the closet door, and then I got a mouth full of mop." Cassandra says, her tone conveying just as much pout as her face with her nose and mouth scrunched in disgust as she sputters a little more. She still can't help but feel as if she's got bits of the mop in her mouth. She even brings her hand up, using her wrist to wipe her mouth clean before turning her gaze on Finn, managing to actually brighten more than before.

"Oh, and accosted by a really boisterous broom." It's almost an afterthought as the redhead brings her hand to the side of her head, rubbing the spot that had been hit moments prior. After a full moment she drops her hand and turns her body, giving Flynn her full attention. "I just thought I'd help clean. I mean, this place looks like it could use some TLC!" Cassandra gestures around, moving her arms in a wide way, considering the whole place could, kind of, use it.
librarian167: Flynn looking happy (Happy)

Flynn looked round himself, frowning slightly. "Looks fine to me," he concluded with a shrug. He'd never really cleaned much and hadn't even thought, until now, how the Library at home wasn't covered in dust. It was too big for anyone to clean - perhaps it cleaned itself.

"It seems to be happy doing the cleaning itself." Flynn gestured after the mop. "Leaving us to do something more interesting." He stepped closer and lowered his voice. "Want to open a book and see where it leads us?" He grinned, sure she'd like the adventure. Not to mention the risk.
