But beyond just hiding spots, something else will catch your eye - a stepping disc. Where does it lead to? There's no way to know for sure. But with Ananym hot on your heels, it might be your best chance to escape alive. 

	In terms of useful books, most of them are written in archaic, dead languages - and would take too much time for you to slow down and peruse them all. There are some heavy looking volumes though that you could maybe hit Ananym over the head with. 

	"...Two... One!" Ananym screamed, before rushing out of the room with Stephen's body. She chanted in a language you didn't understand, and suddenly, three tigers appeared, growling as they started to hunt you down.[hr][hr][center][h3][b][color=#a81a75]Runa the Grey[/color][/b][/h3][img]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/db4f97a911c55834e8956c78fb0d486b.jpg[/img][hr][b][color=#a81a75]Location:[/color][/b] Limbo

[hr][hr][/center]	[color=#a81a75]"No, child. It would not,"[/color] Runa answered Annika. Limbo would not send her home once this was complete - that effort would have to be made under Annika's power, or the power of another. If anything, the realm would attempt to keep her - to corrupt her, twisting her into one of its monstrous creations. Whoever stayed behind may end up trapped in Limbo forever - or they may not. The Norns had yet to decide that thread. 

	While Runa had mentioned that it would be wise for one to remain behind, to keep to rules of threes, they truly did not care if no one did. The rule of three would enforce itself even if they ignored it. And they had no fear of death. If anything, they needed to leave to in order to ensure that Klara's soul was returned. They had sworn that they would see it done, and as Klara went through the portal, Runa was thus honor bound to follow. 

	So they did. 	

	On the other side of the portal, they found themselves in a quiet dimension. According to Jack, this was the Everdark - the Twilight Pass. One of the rare dimensions that Runa had yet to visit - one that she had suspected in all truth she never would. While they could not see it, they could feel the texture of the dimension, its strange shadow self. 

	And they could feel the gods that Jack had trapped here - the ones who held Klara's soul - the Green Eyed Ones. [color=#a81a75]"Hmm, these gods multiply when killed?"[/color] Runa murmured. [color=#a81a75]"In my many years, I have found one way to stop such hydras - do not cut, do not tear, do not maim. Only complete disintegration, by flames or otherwise, will be sufficient."[/color]

	[color=#a81a75]"As to retrieving your soul, killing the one who holds it will suffice,"[/color] Runa said. [color=#a81a75]"The other option would be combat on the astral plane."[/color]

	The Green Eyed Ones had yet to notice the group, but they were a swarm, a hive - having a strategy may be a good idea.
