[3619] Vulture Run

Hi. I've not gotten critique in what feels like a long time, so I thought I'd try it out again.

This is an excerpt from chapter 11/12 of Act 1 in my fantasy story.

Carridon is a 17 year old village herbalist who has recently been accepted into the prestigious Tower (a university) in the capital city. He is a talented healer, but is dismally poor and has been homeless for several days now. He needs money.
A librarian named Ghesit offered a job, though warned him against it. Now out of options, he comes asking for her offer.

This is not a standalone chapter, so I ask for some leeway with context. We start halfway through chapter 11.

I'd appreciate any and all of thoughts throughout reading this text.
How did you find the atmosphere/ sensory descriptions?
How do you find the plot? Is it engaging enough? Enjoyable?
Are the characters logical and can you empathise with them?

Thanks for your time.
