They didn't have novels back then. {Tory}History says they didn't have books, yet what's this thing in my hand? It's square, bound paper that's been written on. Looks like a book to me. {Acheron}Thank you, Captain Sarcasm. How nice of you to join us again. {Tory}
Tory challenges the notion that historical periods lacked novels, holding a book in hand that contradicts this claim. He points out that despite the assertion that there were no books, he possesses a bound collection of written pages that resembles a modern book.
Acheron responds with a touch of sarcasm, implying that Tory's argument is somewhat obvious and perhaps trivial. Their exchange highlights a playful banter, underscoring the contrast between historical assumptions and the existence of books that contradict those beliefs.
