"We could go to the plaza, and then from there we can figure out what's next. From there it's easy to find places." Skarlet led the way to the Plaza once Silas was done with his research. "I dunno, it's a mystery for me, but Isra is a big place so it may be easier to blend in. Who's Lynx?"

Roleplay posts: 309
Age: 19
Physical Description: Kate is built slenderly, but working in her gardens and on the field has defined her muscles. Her eyes shine with an amber hue and her silvery hair never seems to get dirty from the work she still insists on doing herself.
(Full Sized image: http://imgur.com/bJTWavF)
Clothes and Equipment: She wears a pink apron on her that has a simple square pattern. Underneath, brownish green pants and a black tube top. Many tools, such as a flower shovel, a small rake and a spray bottle, fit inside her pockets. A large red ribbon complements her hair.
When she was working at the Midnight Sun, she replaced her red ribbon with a black one she was gifted when she first joined. She also had a green dress, gifted to her by Naoki.
After being gone away for a long time, she has since expanded her wardrobe, and tends not to think about her clothes too much and follows whatever trends Naoki says are popular now.

From the doorway of the library, Kate Green emerged. The grandeur of the place would have had more impact had she not known that the person responsible had penchant for things unreachable to those slaving away on manual labor. Well, she thought, in this city it's a matter of connections rather than heritage, thank gods... She chortled and shook her head in a very unladylike manner to rid her pinkish-silver hear of the powdery snow she had endured en masse on her way here.
The interior design led her to the desk of the head librarian, which she approached. Despite the weather, she had spring in her step, in more ways than one. Her coat was matte brown with a tuft of white fur lining the collar. Her shoulders and her front were glazed by the gently falling snow, alluding to the fact that she had been walking with more or less a brisk pace. She tapped the desk with her index finger determinately.
This was her first time to the library, despite knowing of it's construction months before it's completion. She spent much more of her time on the theory of her craft and read late into the night on various subjects she never had the time to delve into before. Her own collection of books had grown quite vast, which was part of the reason she took her time, but she felt like having access to the largest collection on the city wasn't the worst plan B. That's why she was here today, to make sure her plan was... properly stocked, so to speak.
"Excuse me," she asked, and drew a few heaving breaths, her shoulders rising and lowering while the snow trickled down her sleeves. Once she got his attention, the corner of her mouth drew into a wry smile. "I need something. A library card. So... How do I, like..." her subtle hand movements were suggesting the librarian to fill her sentence. She did have all day, actually, but she still suggested the librarian to do their job.

Rani
Zaor quickly scrawled out notes in the small journal he had presented just moments earlier, listening intently as Rani rattled off the details that she could provide - evening testing the spines with his free thumb and examining the skin and meat more closely, all while the quill-equiped hand danced away and continued to write.
"Very fascinating, m'lady. Have you been able to find the seeds? And have you indulged in a whole fruit, say maybe to feel anything different? And... if you wouldn't mind, might I sample this cut one myself?"
Kate Green
When Kate appeared at the desk, Zaor once again lifted his head from the heavy volume set open before him and his quill stilled - offering her a very warm and kind smile to her as the writing instrument found home nestled in the inkwell once again.
"Good day, m'lady. A library card? Ahh, that's an easy task if I could just ask a few moments of your time," he replies, then reaching under the desk for another, smaller book that he settled open between himself and the woman. There were very few pages filled out by this point - a record kept of cards issued. "I just need your name, and I assume you're a resident of the city," he adds with a chuckle as he reached for the quill again - not really expecting a different answer. He'd yet to have anyone outside Isra come in, let alone apply for one.

"Yes, there are many seeds inside, they're in each of these sections. I have eaten the whole fruit, excluding the thorns of course which I scrubbed off with on a rock. It is safe, so you may sample it." Rani smiles brightly.

Oh and if you could point me in the direction of the books on the politics and history of foreign lands, I would appreciate that very much." I hope they have what I need... There's so much I don't know about the world at large and I can't always rely on Naoki to tell me the deepest secrets of the City.

"Whatever lies between you and the High Lady is strictly between the pair of you," he replies softly, keeping the conversation between them. "I assure you, that won't affect this process, m'lady."
He reached beneath the counter and found a new, cleanly cut library card that was ready to be filled out. He set it before himself and found his quill once more to fill in a crisp scrawl of Kate's name across the top, in addition to writing 'Property of Isra Library" off to the corner.
The next part might be odd, as Zaor gave the girl an intense but brief glance before he sketched out her bright expression in the designated square for an image. It seemed his skills with a quill had not suffered after all this time. But once that was done he moved away from the counter to a very extravagant looking plant nestled in a large pot behind the counter, which seemed to sway and actually reach out with a number of colorful leaves when the Elf drew near. He set down on a small side table near the plant, and extended a hand to the foliage - a thing vine or two reaching out to grasp his fingers like the tiny hands of a child. With a firm hold on him, the other leaves began to hover over the card, the vines poking out and beginning to trace over the sketch. In just a minute, the image came to life with color - a perfect match to Kate's image.
Almost finished, Zaor would bring the card back to the counter - after comforting the seemingly sentient plant into letting him go - and turn it towards Kate while also pushing the quill and inkwell forward, too. He flipped the card over onto the back and tapped it with his finger.
"Just put your signature here, m'lady, and it's yours."

She quickly scribbled her signature next to her likeness then shot her eyes up at Zaor. "If you don't mind me asking, sir, I couldn't help but notice that strange and interesting plant. How did you come to be in the possession of such a thing?" She was leaning on the counter, swiping the feather of the quill back and forth like a curious feline. Her eyes were full of childlike excitement, the like which she only encountered when faced with things that intrigued her immensely.

Eli has since grown into the new world and as she understands and uses her magic she matures both physically and mentally, she is of above average height and has long fiery red hair which complements her bright Azul eyes. Her mother had described them as a vessel that had captured a lightning storm at sea, bright, beautiful yet full of danger.
She has a relative petite body in an hourglass shape which is still developing into its form, some would describe her as athletic and elegant in posture and gait.
Eli now has several 'runes' of power marked on her skin.

She doesn't wear the traditional clothes of a witch, mostly because she hates her lineage and instead adopts a more roguish look with almost knee-high brown leather boots, her good luck brown and white striped knee high socks which have since torn and a more practical dress, something a huntress would wear not an upcoming witch. She also wears a two-tier necklace which carries her power-stone, at current one jade and one smoky gray stone sit in their case as she has yet to master warrior magic.

Eli was all but ready to leave Isra, she and one last stop, which was the library. She had to see if there was anything on her kind of witch which would help her increase her abilities and understanding off them especially now she had no shaman to guide her she'd have to self-teach.
"Where are you," She said with a finger on her lip as she walked along the aisles looking up and down every book.

Eli Nightshade would find she was relatively alone - this time of the evening, many people were headed home and the massive library echoed out the loneliness in simple actions through the building.
But after a few minutes of her searching about on her own, a man would appear between the neighboring shelves of books - bearing a scepter in hand and a stack of books. He stopped and faced a particular shelf, standing the staff up - which remained upright on it's own with a gentle glow from the orb nestled at the top - before attempting to place the books back on the shelve where they belonged. He also took a moment to ensure they sat upright correctly and were placed in the right order, his pointed ears flicking occasionally.

Roy sat on an overstuffed couch in a corner of the library, flipping through a book about turtles. They were interesting creatures, he'd just found. Who knew they lived so long? He'd kept a turtle as a child, but it had "escaped" according to his grandmother. The turtle soup for dinner the next day had been totally coincidental, apparently. Gran hated turtles, for reasons that Roy had never understood. Still, reading his book, Roy felt that he understood turtles much better than he had before. Glancing around for librarians, he took a quick bite of his chocolate. Usually he obeyed the rules and didn't eat in the library, but he was hungry today.

Eli was caught off guard by the man who seemed to work in the library. She noted that he had pointed ears and instantly recalled the memory with Adamar, her first encounter with an Elven person. As he worked she found herself staring at a magical Aura the likes of which she had not seen before. She couldn't believe just how many people used magic in this world, her clan were so out of touch with the world it was embarrassing.
She was about to begin her search again when he stood his staff upright without holding it as he placed a book on the shelve. The stone on top glowed much like her stones did and she took her necklace in one hand their warmth caressing her palm. "Excuse me," She said to the man, "If you don't mind me asking what kind of Magic are you using, it's beautiful."
For the first time in Eli's life her Aura shimmered a rose pink, and she felt a change inside of her as if she was absorbing this new energy, this new force. It wasn't stealing the force simply, learning it. She was sure he would be able to see it.

Zaor placed the last book in it's proper place on the shelf, turning his head to glance at the woman with an easy stare. Despite his youthful appearance, it was easy to see the age in his eyes but he allowed a gentle smile all the same.
"It's no trouble to answer a question," he replies, bringing his hand around to take hold of his scepter again - the glow fading out. "And thank you - it's a magic I, too, find beautiful. I've been using and working with earthen magic for many years. I can guess that you're a magic user, too, m'lady."
He quietly pushes out beyond himself with an easy force, easily felt by those with magical prowess - seeming to search for something. His scrying abilities had grown a bit, but it wasn't anything particularly strong yet. But it would allow him to see if she, indeed, was magically attuned and maybe see exactly how powerful her magicks might be - all the while, keeping his eyes on her.
In addition, the library itself was decorate with a number of friendly plants - ones that weren't dangerous or poisonous to those that might come to visit. And with his application of magics, they began to actually move! The leaves swayed and the budding flowers seemed to brighten up as they looked about much like eager children in a new world. An odd thing, indeed.

Eli could feel him press against her own magic and allowed herself to open up, she wasn't afraid t hide her magic like she was with others. And in the library, it felt private and intimate to express herself. he would sense she was powerful but still developing her own abilities, he would also sense the burden and the slight darkness locked away within side her if he pressed hard enough.
"Earthen Magic? I have never heard of it" She questioned, doing some studying of her own. Eli's powerstones (all three of them) glowed with mage light reacting to his own magic.

The Happy Man enters the library quietly.
Finally...now I'll be able to understand where I am...Not like I need to eat or anything so I'll just stay here until I have finished reading all the books here. Guess I'll start from the beginning of the library's catalogue then.
The Happy Man picks up a book and begins reading it. It should be noted that it takes him an estimated ten seconds per page.

Kargth left the convoy and the village leader with Cyrene with the Isran Officials to work out the exact numbers and details, the knight had other matters he had to attend to while he was here. He had heard through the villagers back home that a great library was found in Isra. Books and tomes on the widest array of knowledge known. This great library was what Kargth was currently searching for.
It took a little while, and a few strange looks to get directions to the place. A seven foot tall knight in jagged plate and thick furs asking directions to the library was an odd sight for many of the populace. When he eventually made it to the entrance of the imposing building, Kargth realised a problem he had no considered.
He didn’t know how to read.
The villagers taught him to speak and understand, by being poor peasants themselves, the skills of writing were foreign to them. A few knew basic words, and that was enough for them to get by. But for Kargth that was not enough, not for what was needed.
Climbing the great stone steps, past the immaculate bird statues of some unknown type, Kargth entered. Inside several people were busying themselves with tasks, grabbing books, sitting at chairs reading tomes on various subjects or conversing in a low voice. The wood flooring creaked beneath Kargths weight as he walked further into the library. Some would look up, a puzzled look on their faces, others too enraptured with their novels and great tomes to even notice his passing. Walking towards the center of the library through a small walkway lined with bookcases, Kargth spotted some sort of central counter, with several interacting with what seemed like staff. He joined the small line to speak with one of the representatives, behind a small man in simple robes, holding a series of books piled high in his hands, almost obscuring the mans vision. It was as a good a place as any for Kargth to find what he needed.

He carries a wand to funnel his abilities, though it is not at all necessary for him to use it. A book is usually kept on his person, as well as an inkset, so he may record history on the fly.

The line eventually cleared, directions being given and questions being answered. The attendant of the line the knight had joined gave the man a bewildered look. Then he folded his hands, calming himself with a slowly exhaled breath. Isra was a diverse city, that much was true, but it was not every day one saw a towering knight.
"Welcome to the library of the Free City, my good man. Here we have an extensive stock of knowledge, how might we be of service to you?" The clerk spoke, slightly inclining his head to look at the face of the knight.

The clerk spoke, slightly inclining his head to look at the face of the knight. Kargth stepped up to the service desk and looked down at the clerk. "Good Morning. "Kargth spoke, trying to say each word as clearly as possible. " I need help with books that teach common tongue. I..." Kargth paused for a moment, considering his words. "I can not read, and my speaking is not so good as well. Can you help me?" Kargth tried to keep his head held high as other patrons nearby heard his question.

The clerk gave the knight a dry look, neither damning or forgiving. Unamused. To say Isra was literate would be an overstatement, though the reforms made by the dear Empress have drastically shortened the epidemic-like situation, at least within the bounds of the Free City. The knight did not look like he was here for classes on reading, though.
"Perhaps you are looking for a book of the speaking variety?" The clerk smiled, a rare sight, one that quickly faded away. "If such a marvel existed, I'm sure Isra would have a monopoly. Perhaps Malagos, our head librarian, shall help you in your quest?"
Without waiting for an answer, the clerk pointed to his left, "Down that row is a door, inside is the man you seek."

A talking book, what a strange concept.

The doorway, as the knight approached it, would swing open as he neared. Inside was an array of books, some piles as high as the ceiling, others reaching to an average man's waist. Behind a sturdy desk of oak, decorated sparsely, sat the resident librarian, Malagos.
Malagos had his bifocals on the edge of his nose, his hands busy with holding a book upright. When the knight entered his office, the mage flicked his eyes at him, his hands placing a marker in his book and closing it. Placing his book on the desk, he folded his hands on top of the leather binding.
"How may I help you?"
