The Messenger Hints
I can't find the royal books.
1 of 2: There is only one stack of books that may be interacted with. They don't appear at the beginning of the game. If you don't see them -- leave the room, do some exploring, and return later.
2 of 2: Once the books are available, they may be found on the window ledge in the cup-bearer's room.
