"I think we need some blood but I'm not going to bleed in a sewer if I can help it," Sybil explains, getting to the waste around them.

Twitch's blood lands on the wall and it descends into the ground, revealing an open area with four bookshelves. Each of the shelves are packed with books and tomes caked in dust. There's a single desk in the corner and an ascending staircase.

I have an intelligence of six, I know what I'm doing.
Demalis you hear skittering, indicating that it's likely spiders, but then you hear shambling what sounds like bone scraping from the floor.
Twitch, you take your watch at the base of the staircase, but nothing comes down. When you look up, you'll occasionally see spiders but you also notice a skeleton or two walking along.

Meep, you find a treasure trove of books on Faerun history, including volumes about the empire of Netheril that look old but still intact. You also find smaller books about different figures including information about the Xanathar and the Xanathar Thieves' Guild.
A couple of other tomes stick out to you. One is titled "Code of the Harpers," written by some guy named Ed Greenwood.
If you look inside
Flipping through the pages, you find this book details the founding of the Harpers and information about Harpers in the past, including Danilo Thann, whose ghost you talked to in the tomb, Artus Cimber, Mirt the Moneylender, Elminster, and Storm Silverhand. You even find an entry on Roland and his adventures in Undermountain.
The other one is Secrets of the Magister, also written by that Ed Greenwood guy.
The role of Magister was created in the wake of the Dawn Cataclysm. A man named Azuth gained the office, but passed it on once he himself gained divinity. Only Mystra herself knew the full roster of Magisters but many made their names known by their deeds during their tenure in the office. Elminster and Laeral Silverhand passed on their knowledge of the Magister's abilities and responsibilities to various sages. If they hadn't, then only Mystra, Azuth and the current Magister would know any of the pertinent details. It only details Magisters up to the 14th century.

Meep is engrossed in the books, and after perusing the two specifically mentioned, stores them in his pack and grabs one or two about Xanthan Gum and his Thieves Guide to take as well. He does not appear to have heard Twitch.
"No sign of the vampires I assume," Sybil whispers, "Enough skeletons to be a problem or something we can avoid?"

Twitch shys away a little from Meek after the magical display...worried for a moment that Meek has become a vampire himself.
Twitch stares at the stone wall with the scribbles on it, " Should I break?"
"I think we need some blood but I'm not going to bleed in a sewer if I can help it," Sybil explains, getting to the waste around them.

Delmalis nods and stands ready.
"Yeah, this doesn't seem like a trap of some sort," says Rotthran sarcastically.

Meep's eyes light up and he immediately rushes in to peruse the shelves.
Delmalis moves to the stairway and listens for any sounds coming down.
