[color=6ecff6][b][h3]Reverio Galand[/h3][/b][/color] The girl had been strong, too strong. There had been no way to hold on to her as she made her move over towards the barrier which contained the so named Tome of Trium Throne. [i][color=6ecff6]'Such strength...'[/color][/i] Reverio thought to himself as he watched Liliya, but he was more concerned with her behaviour, she acted almost like... a golem? That had to be it. [color=6ecff6][i]'This girl is another of Darla's servants? She really sent two of them to aid me. I really have to find some way to thank her later.'[/i][/color] The blonde nodded to himself before looking at what Liliya was up to, blinking quickly. She had managed to break the barrier? [color=f7976a]"Impossible! That crazy bit-"[/color] The grimoire under Reverio's arm began to proclaim once it realized that the barrier of the Tome of Trium Throne had been removed. The grimoire would however be muffled as Rev wrapped it into a piece of cloth he carried with him. [color=6ecff6][b]"Shhh... do not call the lady such crude things. Wait a moment... can golems have a gender?"[/b][/color] He mumbled out loud to himself and the grimoire before looking over at Liliya. [color=6ecff6][b]"Good work! Tell Darla that I will make it up to her! You go on ahead, I will be with you shortly. To think this tome may hold the key to the greater peace. Oh brother... your sacrifice will not be in vain. I will save this world from it's own people and then at the end, I'll be the last evil to be vanquished. The enemy of everything and everyone, this is my destiny... this has to be it. Never again will the horrors which befell you my dearest of friends happen anew."[/b][/color] Reverio spoke to himself as he walked over to the Tome of Trium Throne. His hand reaching out to take it. [color=6ecff6][b]"Reveal to me, the path of peace."[/b][/color] He took the tome and clutched it closely, he would have to read it, but not here. He had to make it out of here before the library personell and authorities would learn of this breach. He ran. [hider=The book] [i][b]THE TOME OF TRIUM THRONE The tome contains many events of old, of how Saint Laurel and his followers unified the lands which became Rhea. How many of the tribes which inhabited the land prior were fighting against and alongside Laurel and his followers, it also tells of three people which set out with swords which acted like keys for a great door, which in turn had sealed away an old enemy behind it. The enemy having been sealed under the Rhean administrative building, and only by bringing in the three swords together could that seal be undone. One of the bearers headed to Izumo, another to Albion and the last to Vauquelin. Early in the book is message for whomever would open the book. [color=8882be]"You who have broken the seal. Know that the knowledge contained within this tome must not fall into the wrong hands. Sealed away under the administrative building of my precious Rhea is a great enemy sealed away and must remain in place. The three keybearers of the swords must never be reunited, keep them apart to ensure the safety of Rhea and all neighbouring countries. Do not seek to release the prisoner, do not study the seal, do not pursue this evil for the sake of goodness. It will destroy everything and everyone."[/color] - Shal-Akkun, musician and scribe, City of Rhea. (The text appears to be at least 200 years old.) There's an alchemical symbol on the page, depicting what only be described to be the philosopher stone. An alchemical formula how to turn anything into gold. Among other things. [color=8882be]"If you encounter the immortal grimalkin, let her not find all the swords, for she would free her old foe and comerade without a doubt. The Lyngurium Lie was the one who sealed the evil away so long ago, prior to her clash with Laurel, praised be his name. The people need a real hero like Laurel, not an old hero gone villain like the fire lynx. Power can corrupt, but so can a broken heart. It is with a heavy heart that I, Shal-Akkun, musician and scribe of Laurel beg you to not pursue the swords. Lyngurium Lie used to be an ally of Laurel during his youth, but an enemy for the remainder of his life. I knew her feelings, her pain and desires. But those desires would rip Rhea apart and everything we fought for would have been for nothing. She desires an endless battlefield alongside Laurel, she dreams of the old Laurel who she could only walk beside when he was a warrior on the battlefields. Time is changing, but that immortal woman is not. She is still existing in the land which were before Rhea. There's nothing for her here anymore, nothing is the same as it were before. That's why she became the enemy of us all, much like the sealed away prisoner who was once her ally in the lands before Rhea. This is a tragic life she has lived, but it doesn't excuse her actions, therefor by all means do not let her find the swords or where the seal is located now. The land was lush and green once, now it's a city state, she doesn't know where to find it. DO NOT PURSUE RU-"[/color] The last part of the page has been torn out. A depiction of a large door is drawn, with a set of devices in front of it, looks like that's where the swords are supposed to be put.[/b][/i] [/hider] [@Lewascan2]
