"This is your grandfather's room!"

Young Socrates, who is secretly unaware in being the reincarnation of Bruno, looked with amazement. "Uncle, I never knew he had an entire library in his bedroom," he exclaimed in wonder as he eyed the many shelves of books around the whole room, finding it a bit overbearing due to their numerous amounts.
