A...harem of women? Now that was the single, most horrible, ridiculous idea Charlotte had ever heard. Dealing with one person in a relationship was annoying enough, but more? She could hardly handle her previous ahem, partner before...well, no matter. Charlotte simple gave Katherine a rather deadpan expression as she commented on Marise' beauty. Himeko and her shared similar thoughts it seemed.

Well, it be easy enough to ask for a place to find research materials on the library. Not to mention she wouldn't have to mention [i]that[/i] either. It'd be easy enough to pass herself off as a scholar interested in history. [color=8882be]"As for what we're looking for...historical records, mostly. We're scholars interested in an ancient civilization by the name of 'Harena'."[/color]
