25: Brother Butler

From RocksfallWiki

It would have been easy for Brother Butler to find some junior librarian to take care of the task, but something in his heart was soothed by the act of placing books in their appointed spaces on the shelves. Restoring order. It felt far more productive than pushing papers around his desk.

And, he thought with a smile, it was satisfying to slide an orthodox volume on theology by a former Patriarch alongside a manuscript by a Houseless prophet from the Shambles. It gave him hope that one day, real people might get along as well as their books did.
