Lukas had found the library within the very first few days of the term and right away he had fell in love with it. Not as much as he loved the barns and creature pastries but it was probably his second favorite place to be. The amount of books at his disposal was more than he could have hoped for and at least once a week he was stopping in here to return a book or two and sign out another.

Being unable to go home for the holidays had but a large damper on the first years mood and he wasn't as bright eyed and happy smiles as he normally was. He was doing the best that he could to not sulk or cry but it was difficult, especially when he was on his own like right now. The only thing keeping him from crumbling into a million little pieces was the book in his hands that he was currently reading. Obviously it was a book about creatures, winged horses to be exact. Working with them in the barn almost everyday got him wanting to know as much as he possible could about the different species.

Lukas shifted in his spot on the arm chair beside one of the fireplaces, tucking his feet beneath him and resting the book on the arm of the chair. He had removed his shoes which were placed beside the chair on the floor.
