"It isn't," Zelda comments, just a hint of annoyance in her voice. She isn't angry at Ellie, but at the challenge posed by the overgrowth.
"These paths ought to be clear, and so should the buildings."
The library is a little further inside the city, on the edges of what could be considered Downtown. It isn't overgrown yet, at least on the outside.
Walking inside, the woman at the desk welcomes Zelda back and says hello to Ellie, but Zelda walks straight past her with a passing smile and a promise that they'll be just a moment.
It's a small library, fitting the size of the town well, but as stocked as Hyrule's castle. It's a wonder to her to think that the public is so well supplied and educated in this strange world.
She leads the young goddess to a shelf in the corner of the building closest to the city limits, which holds the library's history collection. Once there she crouches to point at the carpet in the very corner of two shelves, a tan off-white speckled with spots of black and the wrong shade of grey. The spines of the nearest books show light dustings of the grey fuzz Zelda had described, mostly at the bottom.
