In search of memories

[Lethe]

((Sorry for my tardiness, Skyward Sword is consuming A LOT of my time ))

As Vexxus reminded him that some extra supplies might come in handy, he checked several of the pouches hidden by his large cape. Nodding that she was right, he took one final look at the room. Nothing in particular stood out and he pondered on what to do. These books contained a lot of knowledge, but this knowledge seemed to be dangerous. Too dangerous.

Taking the journal back from her, he pocketed it away and made up his mind. "Let us burn this place to the ground." He told her. "I am somewhat wary of doing this... Some book may indeed contain more information but..." Glancing around he sighed. "The titles I see suggest they are nothing but books about dangerous and forbidden magic. Reading them would take too much time and I would rather not leave them here in the open for someone else to find."

Leaving the room, he turned and waited for Vexxus. Igniting another bolt of green fire, he casually tossed it towards the center of the hidden library and watched as the emerald flames started to devour all in their path. Leaving the house, he grabbed a small journal and jotted down a few lines of text.

Casting his gaze towards the sun, he guessed they had plenty of daylight left and plotted out how to proceed in his mind. "Very well then. I shall procure some extra supplies at the market place. Shall we meet up at the northern gate? One hour should be sufficient time for us to finish our preparations right?"

After Vexxus agreed, he started walking towards the cities market square but stopped in his tracks. "Vexxus... I..." Turning around to face her he stammered a little before going on. "If... if I seem... odd. After you meet up with me in an hour... Or anytime after that. As if I do not remember I mean... Tell me that even if I do not remember, the Librum Memoriae does."

With that, he spun around and walked off towards the market square.

[Vexxus]

Vexxus nodded as he suggested burning the library, and she agreed that it was dangerous information. Following Lethe out, she silently wondered where the next journey would lead them.

Lethe suggested that they meet in one hour; after gathering supplies for the journey.

"That'll be plenty of time for me. I'll be waiting at the gate." Then he stopped, telling her what to say if he forgot...I almost forgot...he...may not remember me at some point in this journey... Vexxus' chest was inexplicably pained, as if some large weight was pressing down upon it. "If I do not remember, the Librum Memoriae does." She did not know exactly what these words meant to him personally; but they did hold some hope for her. She nodded and turned to return to her home.

There, she gathered up one extra change of clothes, another set of underclothes and another casual dress, just in case. She decided that she should probably take some reagents; in case she needed to craft any sort of remedy or enchantment, so she stopped by a small shop the frequented. After that, Vexxus headed to the gate, though she knew she would be early.

Upon arriving at the gate, she sat, waiting for Lethe and watching the curious array of people entering and leaving Tamasha. There were Dwarves, Elves, Humans, and even one man who appeared to be a wizard; carrying a small Griffon-like creature on his shoulder. She had always enjoyed the variety of people, and Tamasha was indeed a great city to discover and explore new things.
