'' Genysia woke up to the sounds of the birds chirping, early in the morning. She sat up, and yawned. She looked around her small bedroom. There was a desk, a chair, a small carpet, and the cot she was sleeping on. Nothing else. For some reason, most thought that Minerals was lavish and rich, as the province mined precious materials. ''

'' This was not the case. ''

'' Genysia silently got out of bed, and sneaked out of the house. She slipped into the back garden, and entered a tunnel that nobody but herself and the villagers knew about. When she reached the end of the tunnel, she sighed at the sight of the room. It was a library. ''

 Oh, how   Genysia loved books. They were her favorite thing in the whole wide world. Huge bookshelfs lined the walls. Laterns illuminated the dark room. Desks and chairs were spreads out, and the floor was lined with soft, lush carpets. Pillows were scattered around. And it even had a computer, a luxury from the province Technology.

The library was built a few years ago, when  Genysia was seven. She had raised money for the villagers, as those years were hard times. The province was running out of places to mine.

In return, she asked for a library to be built for the citizens of Minerals. But since books and reading were opposed in the province, it had to built underground, somewhere where no- one would dare to dig in.

The villagers also had a secret tunnel leading to the library. They went in small groups in intervals so they wouldn't raise suspiscions and get caught.

The computer was an anonymous gift to the library.

There were only two people in the library that morning. Both were children, and their hands were rough with calluses from mining.

Genysia picked up the book she was reading for the past week, and sat down. She sighed, and opened it. It would have been a regular morning.

But then the shaking began.
