[h3][color=a187be][center]~Livia~[/center][/color][/h3] Katherine was just about the only person that Livia wouldn't have told immediately to leave right about now. Despite her rather...distinct aversion to getting too attached to anyone, the student was one of the few exceptions she allowed herself. [color=a187be]"Hmph, Aetheria will get her tears later. I have more pressing matters with that new information..."[/color] Livia replied curtly. [color=a187be]"I assume you heard everything, so I doubt you need me to fill you in."[/color] Liva stood from her chair, walking over to one of the bookshelves that lined the wall of the room. [color=a187be]"Apparently, I am the descendant of some pharaoh, or other divine being."[/color] She frowned, running her hand over a few of the tomes that lined the shelves. [color=a187be]"At one time when I was younger I might have been amused by such a development, and brushed it off as nonsense. Now though...I have to question my own goals."[/color] A blue flame appeared in Livia's right hand, an extension of her own soul. As it engulfed her hand, she placed it upon the bookshelf. There was a sound of something heaving, a rush of air as the bookshelf seemed to fade from existence revealing a passage behind it. [color=a187be]"Come. I think its time you and I had a little chat about my future, as well as yours."[/color] [h3][color=6ecff6][center]~Miren~[/center][/color][/h3] A long ten minutes would pass before Miren would return. [color=6ecff6]"Oof-P-pardon me!"[/color] Was the first thing Fia would hear of the bunnies voice as she returned to the room...carrying what was an almost comical amount of books that a person of her size would definitely be having trouble carrying. The massive stack of books was plopped down in front of Fia near the desk, a dull thud noise being made as they hit the ground. She was quite surprised to find the large oak desk having been moved to a nearby window...the [i]only[/i] window in the room. [color=6ecff6]"Oof, my poor little bunny arms aren't meant for carrying that stuff..."[/color] The rabbit complained, rubbing her forearms. [color=6ecff6]"Ah, at least I still have good legs..."[/color] The rabbit mused silently, before remembering what she was supposed to be doing. [color=6ecff6]"Erm, right! So, having trouble organizing information. Well, thankfully I am good at that!" [/color]She chuckled a bit proudly. It wasn't often she got to brag about something that most mages were inherently good at. [color=6ecff6]"All the books on the phoenix and any sort of relating myths, legends, and anything else I could find is right here for you."[/color] Miren patted the pile of books, which was taller than she was. [color=6ecff6]"So. We should get started, then? Oh - right."[/color] Miren bounced over to the other side of the room, shuffling through some papers before bouncing back over with a pen and a blank journal. [color=6ecff6]"Its a blank book - free to write in all you want. I don't know how much exactly you're going to be researching into it but I think it'd be best if it was kept all in one place."[/color] Miren placed the book and pen on the desk. For now this should be enough to get started. [h3][color=aba000][center]~Sorcha~[/center][/color][/h3] The dragon stretched. They still had quite a ways to go, but at least they were making progress. Now they just had to...well, walk. One of the least exciting aspects she was looking forward too. Ah, she really would have just loved to fly the entire distance but she couldn't leave the kitten behind, nor could she take her with her. Well, at least they could perhaps make pleasant conversation as they walked. ...right? The dragon turned her head to Maoin, a small smile forming. [color=aba000]"Rather quiet today, are we Maoin?"[/color] She said as they walked. [h3][color=f6989d][center]~Selvinia & Co~[/center][/color][/h3] For the most part, Lyssa seemed content with not doing much of anything other than stand a bit impatiently off to the side. She was eager to get this whole adventuring thing start, yep! She had not understood a single bit of the language here but that didn't matter! Everyone understood hugs, after all! But she'd let Eith do the talking then. [color=f6989d]"Uhm. Well, well, the place is up some mountain, right?"[/color] Lyssa asked. [color=f6989d]"So I guess we should head up there, yeah?"[/color] She said, pointing towards the mountain. It looked absolutely cold, though at the same time like a good time to traverse.
