Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sylvia was inclined to agree with Buddy when he suggested going to the park to read, but then the men started to tend to the lawn. She agreed with Buddy's next note while rubbing the back of her head, "Yeah, we probably shouldn't get in the way of their work. Plus, there's probably a lot we haven't seen of Gransys yet. Let's walk around!" She then looked up to see Syfr land on Buddy. She greeted Syfr with a nod and a quiet "Hey, Syfr,"

After saying that, she wandered around town with Buddy to just sightsee.

Sylvia gave a smile to Tuscon as he thanked them and sent them on their way. She let Buddy carry the books in the bag and she followed him out of the store. She took in a breath of fresh air as they made their way out. She was glad to see that things were still quite peaceful. Despite the trouble she and the rest of her group got into yesterday, it seemed like everything was going to be fine for now.

She then noticed Buddy was looking to the park intently. She asked Buddy curiously, "What is it, Buddy? Notice something?"

She directed her gaze in that same direction, hoping to see what he sees.

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sylvia nodded to Buddy in understanding as she accepted the book to bring to check out. After thumbing through the other two books, she decided tho get Goblin Slayer and Flotilla Fanyare along with The Night Sun. She fished out the 240 gold pieces as she answered Tuscon, “Buddy and I are certainly looking forward to reading it. I’m sure it’ll be inspiring as it’s informative. Thank you, Tuscon,”

Sorry for the wait. ^^"

I got swamped...again. Hope I didn't lose you.

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sylvia immediately recognized one of the titles mentioned. Goblin Slayer!

Goblin Slayer! That story is in Keratia too? Sylvia thought to herself. While she hadn't had much time for manga and anime as of recently back at home, she had heard about it. She just didn't know the details...

Come to think of it...wasn't one of the books given to her back in Cassari reminiscent of another manga series?

Anywho, thinking over her options, she figured all three books could be very informative, as well as entertaining. She asked Tuscon, "How much would each book be?"

She then looked at Buddy and asked him, "What do you think Buddy? Which ones sound interesting to you?"

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

No worries. It’s completely understandable.

I’ll get a post up tomorrow. ^_^

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sorry I took so long. ^^"

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sylvia ignored the stares of the people as she made her way through Castle Ward, but she did stop to take in the sight of the paintings, banners, and flags. She kind of wished Pylia was with her now, so that she could explain the events depicted in the paintings. It certainly looked like he accomplished much. If there is a depiction of a dragon on one of the paintings, her gaze would linger on it. She wanted to see if she see if the dragon in the painting looks the same as the dragon she saw in her dream. As she stares at the painting, she can't help but feel that same fear come back to her heart, and haunt her.

After that, she would continue on to the bookstore.

Once she and Buddy arrive at the bookstore, she looks around the bookstore quietly at first. She was quite surprised to see that the books were no less than 100 GP. They were that expensive?! Textbooks she could understand, but books meant to be read for entertainment as well? Geez!

Her attention was then drawn to the young man who introduced himself as Tuscon. She greeted Tuscon, "Hi Tuscon. We're just looking for a book with an entertaining story to pass the time. Do you have any recommendations?"

"Oi lass!" Angus called out to Najila. "I think I might have found yer--"

Before Angus could even finish that sentence, let alone step away from the book, Najila swiftly sprinted over and grabbed the book, as if her life depended on that very tome. The veils flew behind her like they were her own version of clouds. Once the tome was in her hands again, she felt a great weight lift itself off of her shoulders. The relief can be seen on her face, as she genuinely smiles at Angus, "You have my gratitude, Ironbane. I shudder to think that elf almost escaped with my tome in hand,"

After saying that, she immediately started to inspect her tome. The thought that the elf might have done something to the Book of Clouds did concern her. She first checked the bookmark to see if she received any new messages during her time apart from the Tome. If the clouds in the bookmark are roiling, she would immediately open the book to the bookmarked page. If not, then she would quickly flip through the pages to make sure that there wasn't any damage or additional marks made by that Sarfyr character.

Once that was done, she would notice that Angus took the Cloak of Protection. As much as she wanted it, she knew now wasn't really the time to discuss it. She wondered if she could persuade the barbarian, and how she could. She started mentally recalling the novels where characters tried to persuade people stronger than them...

She muttered as she recognized one of the corpses, "Tenkern..." Had he been working with these people? Was the reason why she was hired was so that she and the rest of the caravan could be kidnapped?

Regardless of the answer, Najila decided to take his pouch of gold. The group could certainly use that money in the future.

She listened as Aron and Nadir spoke. After Angus gave his answer, Najila answers, "I have no preference either. I suspect that all of us will be staying with each other for quite some time,"

She then cleared her throat and she asks, "Since we'll be resting here, it looks like I have some work. I shall set up an alarm here...unless anyone else has a better idea as to where an alarm should be placed? It would be good to have should any enemies come after us while we rest,"

If everybody is okay with it, Najila would like to have that cloak of protection. She’s probably the squishiest member of the party.
