Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sylvia followed the acolyte to a room on the corner. She had to admit, she didn't expect to see that many books here. She nodded at his request, and she answered "Sure. But unfortunately I don't have very much to begin with, hence why I am here," She then continued "This strange incident I'm talking about...It's kinda like the whole fey kidnapping people in their sleep and putting them elsewhere. The exception in this case, is that person has found themselves in a completely different world. Different countries, different time, everything about the world they found themselves is in is different. They went to sleep and then woke up with no memory of how they got there,"

She decided to keep who the person was vague. She wanted to gauge the acolyte's reaction first before she let them know that the person she was talking about was herself.

Sylvia had decided to go to the church via the main road. It may have been long, but she preferred the space to the narrow alleyways. She had thought the church on the outside was pretty grand, but on the inside? The inside was kind of strange. Most of the churches she's been to have always been structured so that during the day, the sunlight would illuminate the inside. Here? It was dark. She wasn't sure if it was intentional, or if it was poor planning on the construction of the church. She was glad to see that she didn't come in during a sermon.

She waited patiently until the younger man finally noticed her and approached her. She raised an eyebrow at the greeting quizzically, before she continued, greeting, "Hi. I was informed that the church may have information about...a strange incident, and I would like to know as much about it as possible,"

Sylvia was mentally debating whether or not she should say that she was the one who is going through this 'strange event' or if she should just say that a friend is going through it.

Sylvia nodded to Yerro, and answered his advice, "I'll be sure to keep that in mind. Thank you again, Yerro," She'll have to get herself a fishing set and learn how to fish. She had never really gone fishing before. She looked around the store a bit before finally heading out.

As she walked through Cassari, she flipped through the pages of the book and took in the writing at a glance. Unfortunately, she had business to take care of before she can relax and read. She decided to drop off her rewards in her room at the inn, and then head to the church. If the church knew anything about her being here, then it was worth investigating. Plus, maybe she can get some insight on why Pylia and Yerro seem to have a negative opinion about the church here.

Sylvia grinned a bit at the thought that she wouldn't appreciate the books. Her? Disappointed with books? Never. She listened as he talked about how his kids didn't appreciate books. She noted the gripe at the sermons in the church. She got the impression that a lot of people didn't like the church for some reason. Maybe she should really be on guard when she goes there for information...

Her curious look went back to a smile when Yerro mentioned telling his kids about her and her appreciation for books. She couldn't help but laugh a bit, "I hope my story really does inspire them to read,"

When he asked if there was anything else she needed, she answered, "I think that's it for now. I gotta take the time to rethink my grocery list a little more,"

Funny enough, while the clothes, and the harpoon and kitchen set were amazing, Sylvia couldn't help but brighten up considerably at the sight of the books. While the books may be humble to those who were actually from the world of Keratia, to Sylvia they were a source of knowledge for her pour over. These books may even save her in the future. Her smile was even wider, and she could help but clap her hands once and gasp in sheer joy at the sight of them. She listened quietly as he explained what each book had in store for her. She could barely contain her excitement.

She thanked Yerro after he was done, "Oh my gosh! Thank you, Yerro! These books are definitely going to be of great help! You're a life saver!"

Yeah, she knew what she was going to be doing at the inn. Reading! Just some good old reading to learn about the world a little more.

Sylvia smiled when was she was recognized as Hero of the Day and she greeted Yerro in return. She answered Yerro after he complimented her and mentioned the money, “Thanks, Yerro. Aestella did an amazing job with the dress, I just had to buy it. I do still have some coin to stock up on food for the road, so no worries,”

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

With a thank you and a happy smile on her face, she left the store with a wave and a smile on her face. Somehow, it was relieving to know that if she needed someplace to go to, she can always come back to Cassari. She had a home base of sorts in this strange new world.

She decided that it was better to put the jars in the pockets of her backpack. She didn't want to risk having the jars tumble out of her jacket sleeves. She decided the next stop should be Yerro's before she goes to the temple. Couldn't hurt to pay a visit to the grocer.

Sylvia noted the warning and she answered "Thank you for the warning! I'll take a jar each," She fished the fifty gold out of the purse, and placed them on the counter. Not only would she have two handy items for her journey, but she would also be giving some money back to Iola, for her savings.

After purchasing the two items, she told Andras, "I think that's pretty much it. Thank you again, Andras. I really think these will help on the journey,"

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

"Hmmm..."

Sylvia had to admit. Both of those items sound pretty handy in case of an emergency. She had a feeling she might not be able to handle a huge crowd on her own, so it might be good to have a jar of Dragon Spit just in case, and the medicine might be good in case Pylia couldn't heal.

She asked Andras, "How much would it be for a jar each?"

Keratia: Tales of the Arisen One

Sylvia looked around at the items in Iola’s store. She didn’t think she needed any sacks or blankets right now, nor any pots, pans, shovels, or knives. She wondered what kind of seeds were in the jar, and what the medicine was for. Medicine might be the most helpful, just in case.

Then she reached the adventure section. She didn’t really need the weapons or armor. Then she spotted the flasks. What in the world was Dragon Spit? Was it actually Dragon Spit, or was it just some fancy name for something else? When she spotted the blast flasks, she thought about buying them, only to envision the flasks exploding while she used martial arts. So the blast flasks were a no...

She decided to ask Andras out of curiosity, “What does this medicine help with? And what is Dragon Spit?”
