Adam walked out of the classroom, greeted by wooden walkways connecting the different classrooms. The hallways were lit by the same oil lamps as the classroom. There were only doors at one end. At the other extreme, one could find paintings of different people, all dressed in black robes. Which were the former teachers of the school on the middle floor 4 of 5, hexagon 8 of 18 or also known as The School.

Adam, with a rarely seen happiness, was walking through the corridors, they were not very tall: they were a little higher than a person, nor very wide: at most 4 people could pass shoulder to shoulder. But the claustrophobic atmosphere didn't seem to matter to the cheerful young man walking the halls.

Unfortunately for Adam, his classroom was at one of the far ends of the hexagon so he had a long walk to the door, turning around the three corners he was finally able to find the hallway that led to the exit door.

The exit door was 3 times the size of the classroom doors and was placed on the side of the wall where the pictures were placed. So it was very easily recognizable. But more than a door, it should be clarified that it was an empty frame that connected hexagon 8 with 4.

Adam passed through the giant frame and continued on his way, but this time he was not greeted by corridors, this was one of the 6 main hexes, so the room was surrounded by shelves full of books.

The walls of the hexagon were bookshelves, except for the opening frames. In the middle of the hexagon were more shelves, forming another smaller hexagon with only two frames on each side.

Inside that interior hexagon whose walls were made up of shelves, there was another even smaller hexagon: whose walls were also made up of shelves and two doors aligned with the previous one, creating a corridor of frames.

In Total, each main Hexagon contained 18 interior hexagons full of shelves and corridors between them where one could find books, if it were not for all the doors being aligned, one could find a beautiful maze full of shelves.

Adam seemed not to want to attract the attention of the people who were browsing or reading books inside hexagon 4; so he decided to advance towards his target through the outer ring of shelves.

Adam's goal was to get to Hex 3 out of 18. Hex 3 was not only one of the main ones, but also had two corner stairs connecting to Hex: 3-4 and 3-2.

Adam, with firm steps and trying to hide his dusty shoes from other people, managed to reach the stairs of Hexagon 3, there were two spiral staircases. The spiral stairs were made of white marble with exquisite decoration and rare symbols engraved on the stair step. The white color of the marble stood out against the color of the brown wooden floor, but it conveyed an aura of tranquility to the room.

One of the stairs led to the lower floors of the mid-level, and the other ascended to the upper floors of the mid-level.

Adam was heading to the lower floors where his parents lived. But the boy did not advance, but he was left waiting at the door of the stairs.

The stairs were not very wide, and only 4 people could pass shoulder to shoulder. This is why the ancient librarians had designed a system to avoid further jams.

Above each door leading to the stairs were two stones: one green and one red. If the red stone flickered you couldn't get in and it was better not to. Therefore, Adam had to wait at the door, all the stairs had 100 steps between floors so it shouldn't be too long.
