The scribe's quarters
Introduction
The sky is dark and you hurry home from your hard, long day at work. You arrive at your house and it is glowing with a bright, cheery, welcoming light, but just as you raise your hand to knock on the door you remember you left behind the Emperor's information on the history of Rome. You sprint back to the scribes' quarters and realise you haven't even started the research. You quickly get your seal and show the guards on duty ,the "royal scribe emblem" (which is really only a shave of rock with the Emperor's seal on it). The guards nod you in and open the door to the Library of Scrolls. You are in a wizz. Flying here, flying there, collecting sheaves of papyrus here, collecting scrolls of papyrus there. It's due tomorrow and Emperor Constantine does not like to be kept waiting!!!
You must hurry annd take notes. It's late but you cannot fall asleep, you have much to do and you have to do it in 5 hours. Oh may the great God Mercury help you. HURRY
