Istredd is glad that no one followed him. He just needed a breather, that's all, and usually if he can get complete silence and solitude for a few minutes, he comes back feeling much better. He was around a lot of people during their dig, but it was a different situation. Not as tense, not as much responsibility, he was doing lectures but they were on fun topics. It's the subject and situation that are making him tense.
He has an easy smile for Urianger at least. "I hope so." It does feel like a success to him. All he wanted from this was for people to have knowledge about the situation, share their own, and start getting better at protecting themselves. He didn't have hopes higher than that, and it feels like those were met. So yes. Successful.
He is glad he gets to actually show off to Urianger though, someone who might understand. "It felt like a dream when I first came in here." His subconscious was very creative, because he just thought 'library' and it filled this in. "So details you might find interesting. If you pick up a book and think of one you remember, it will fill the pages in." There are several of them in here that are Istredd's own, from his time back home and some academic magic books from the here and now.
"And, follow me ...." He playfully makes a shhh gesture and walks down one row of shelves to a door. When the door opens it is to a sitting room of sorts, at least from his own mind, more personal books and a stained glass window with a reading nook by it. Cushier chairs too. "But you can modify this to anything you want. The reading areas change depending on the person who wants them."
