[The next room is a snug, horizontal-lozenge-shaped study or small library, which you're likely going to need to clear out a couple more beasts from in order to investigate comfortably.
There are bookshelves lining each of its lengthwise ends, tidy and respectably stocked. You'll find very, very few of the texts are in any identifiable language - others are in Latin, some in either of the languages represented feature illustrations and diagrams, and some even seem to provide translations or labels between each other.
The high stacks of texts and yellow papers on the table at the middle of the room are of the same natures. The table is ringed with tall, thin lit candles with the books and papers at the center or under them - for an effect like an altar.
Across the room is an opening to another hallway, and in front of the table is a tile on which lie three urns - red, blue, and green - filled with liquid. Spill or move one and a mahogany bookshelf will slide to hide the hallway; keeping the tile weighted will hold it open.]
