"I've kept this library safe for hundreds of years. How can you think I'd shirk my duties now?"
Without preamble, an earthquake tremor shivered through the room. Baylee braced himself, amazed at
how the books didn't fall from the shelves.
A cloud of smoke erupted from the top of the desk, taking the shape of a huge, naked humanoid. The
smoke kept coiling and climbing. In less than a moment, the desk was gone, reshaped into a stone golem
that stepped ponderously toward Baylee.
The golem stood nine and a half feet tall and was as broad as any two men. The stone flesh marbled,
turning white under the ranger's lantern light. It opened its mouth in a soundless scream.
"In moments, this library will shift to the astral plane," the lich said. "There's nothing you can do to stop
it. And once we get there, you won't escape this labyrinth alive."

Dear Matt Lane Odom,
Thanks for being part of my life, and bringing with it the understanding of what being a first born son is like
from a different perspective. I appreciate your conversations and candor, and the thought you put into
things as you seek understanding. I'll always remember that night in Ada when you were pitching a
near-no-hitter. And thanks for lunch!
Love,
Dad
