Thea is the daughter of a landless baronet whose love for books resulted in her becoming a librarian in the library for commoners in the Elourian Empire's capital. When her homeland becomes the epicenter for people mysteriously gaining unique skills, she remains on the sidelines and skill-less for a decade, but that all changes when the reason for those skills walks right into her quiet little library--with a whole lot of trouble in his wake.Follow this tale of a skillful book lover as she protects what she loves, builds relationships she never expected to have, and smashes former gods into the ground. She may achieve great things, but she's still "just the librarian."

This story is more on the lighthearted side, but there are some scenes with violence and possibly gore. Content warnings will accompany chapters with sensitive topics or descriptions. Those scenes should be read at the reader's discretion.
