It has been a year since our hero was reborn into a new world in the body of Myne, a sickly little girl from a poor family. She's been doing her best to fulfill her dream of making books, but her plans have been foiled at every turn. But now Myne has a deal with Benno the merchant: With her friend Lutz's help, she will make a paper prototype that he can sell in his shop. In exchange, he will take her and Lutz on as apprentices. But making the prototype...

Myne throws everything she has at paper-making while helping at the gate and preparing for Tuuli's baptism. She tries weaving faux-papyrus from fibers during winter and forming clay tablets during the spring, but both fail. Still, her love for books isn't so weak that she'd give up that easily. It's time to think up a Plan C! This is a bibliofantasy for all the bookworms of the world!

Myne is starting to grow more comfortable with temple life. Things are finally going well--that is, until she learns the truth about the orphanage. The children there are starving and emaciated, living in conditions that shake the apprentice blue shrine maiden to her core. After agonizing over this problem, she resolves to become the orphanage director and improve their lives herself. It's time to open up the temple branch of the Myne Workshop!
