Scarlet - October 5, 2006 07:51 PM (GMT)
Scarlet walked into the library quietly and looked about at the shelves. She walked along the tall shelves not seeing anything that would make for an intersting read at all. She walked over the one of the chairs in front of the fire and sat down quietly watching the flames. She absent mindidly rubbed her eyes, recently she'd been having nightmares that were keeping her awake all night for fear of having them again.

In the nightmare she saw a girl with dragonlike wings fighting an angel, but she was defeated and killed. These dreams were distrubing to Scarlet and she didn't want to tell anybody about them unless she was sure they could help. She looked back up at the fire and a voice floated through her mind.
This will be my final honour

She started slightly, the voice souned famaliar but she'd never heard it before, she sighed sitting back in the chair wondering what was happening to her.

Pit - October 5, 2006 09:22 PM (GMT)
It was about night time, everyone was inside their houses by now. Pit had flown a long way from the Sanctuary, but he had finally made it to Lómëdor. He was sent by the head Archangel to pick up a very old Celestial tome. He had finally made it to the library, right when he got inside, it started to rain. He had made it just in time. When he got in, he was amazed to see so many books. He went to the librarian, who was very old, and he told her that he needed the book. She said,"we will have to verify you, so please give me your card, and the head Archangel's card." Pit would have to wait about twenty minutes before he could get the book, so he looked around to see if there was any books for himself that he might of wanted. He went to one of the shelves, it had some very old books. He picked out a book called, The Iliad, and went to the back, to sit down and read until the lady called him. When he had arrived to the back, he saw a very young looking lady, she was sitting there reading a book. He sat down on a chair next to hers and looked at her. "Hello." he said to her, smiling.

Loney - October 5, 2006 10:26 PM (GMT)
It had been a while since Simo had wondered the land, he'd been resting in Lómëdor before leaving on another quest to find new areas of the world to mark his eyes with. It had been too long it seemed, Simo couldn't even remember the lands, he'd need a new map to explore the geography. The best place for that kind of information was a libary.

Simo pushed the large oak libary door and stepped in the large hall, he had his staff in his left hand and a concered look across his face, public places always seemed so alien to him. He shook of his thoughts and walked about the hall with the bright warm light glearing in through the windows, about him were many shelves all filled with old books, and a few news ones. Simo browsed the sides of them looking for a book of geography or something along those lines. He pulled out a book - "The book of land" Simo stepped back with the book spread out across his hands, it covered the details he needed. Time to leave, he walked up to the counter where to a smaller Pixie working at the libary, "Can I have this one?" Simo asked, the Pixie looked at Simo,
"Have you membership?" The pixie asked.
"Well no," Simo admitted. "But can't I just take it?"
"No no, you need membership!" The pixie answered almost distraught at the gesture. "I'll set you up membership, it shalt take long." The Pixie replied, he then proceeded to probe Simo for answers, mainly basic details. After a while the procedure was finished, "You'll have to wait for it to go through the system." The Pixie replied, and then pointed towards a few seats, "Your best of waiting for the momment." The pixie finished. Simo nodded and headed over to the seats where a few people had gathered already.

"Hello." A voice spoke to her, this one perfectly real.
Scarlet jumped slightly not having expected somebody else to be here, after all there was enough dust in here to msneeze for a month, not that she wanted to. She straightened up quickley and looked over at whoever it was. A boy of about 28 it looked like to her, blie eyes, brown hair and unless she was mistaken he was a celestial.

"Hi," she said simply after a moment.
She looked at the book he was holding, it was titled The Iliad, she eyed it curiusley.
"What's the Iliad?" She asked.
Looking up she saw another person having had a talk with a frantic pixie and was now coming in their direction. Scarlet immediatly walked away, most people made a fuss at the sight of her, she also wondered why the boy was talking to her, he seemed angelic and she was half demon. Nothing made sense to her anymore.

Alkar - October 14, 2006 10:29 PM (GMT)
Alkar sat on top of one of the many high tiered bookshelves humming to himself and watchin the comings and goings of the people. He had been their since the morning and now just as night enfolded the city the most peculiar thing happened. A half demon by the looks of her walked into the library just to be followed a few minutes later by a Celestial being. Alkar watch the angelic creature walk up to the counter and produce to cards. After that he walked away from the desk and walked over to a bookshelf to be precise the one he was sitting on and removed a book. He walked around a wall and said hi to someone. Alkar stood up and walked through the wall and sat down on the other bookshelf and watched the demonic girl walk away from the Celestial being.

Alkar lost interest and walked back through the wall just to see the person he had been waiting for. A large orc who had been hunting him for days now and had at last came to the library. Alkar crouched low atop the bookshelf and reached for his scabbard. He drew his Katana silently and satin waiting for this orc to come within striking range. The orc walked up to the counter and spoke to the librarian probably asking if she had seen him. The librarian nodded and said shed seen him wandering around the library these past few days. The orc continued a long searching loop towards the fire and found that their was nothing there. He went and lay flat against the bookshelf on the opposite side of Alkar. Alkar stepped through the wall quickly and then jumped down through the bookshelf and stabbed the orc though the chest with his Katana. He walked out of the wall and dragged the orc off to a nice little corner and left his lifeless body there to rot.

Alkar was tired he had just learned how to phase and wasnt used to the physical exurtion that came from using the spell like that. He walked over to the fire side and sat down in a chair a nice comfortable chair. His thoughts were now relaxed yet his ears still hunted for the sounds of a telltale assasain who might still be stalking him.

Still bent on finding out all whom were responsible for the malicous killings of his crew, Haden entered the city of Lómëdor in hopes of getting some well saught out revenge upon all of "HUMANITY." He went over his known information time and time again, as if he could never quite erase it from his thoughts. He had already slain thousands who stood in his wake,but finding these priests that had commited mutany against he and his fellow bretheran was proving to be a very difficult proposal indead.

Upon entering the city, Haden was interested in one task alone and that was in finding the local library. Haden knew this would be a task he'd have to do without any other help. For you see, Haden already disliked humans to the far lowest epitome amongest races known to Arda and to him asking for help from the race that had commited blasphemy upon him would be disspicable in his eyes. Just as if it had come out of thin air there stood before him the building for which he had long searched. Haden gave a brief, evil smile as he entered the towering figure before him:deep in his lifeless heart he yearned to find what he needed to bring those priests to there knees and maybe even cause a little bloodshed for the time being.

Haden walked quickly to the counter and asked if they had any books upon books of holy signets. Haden thought that he could, by finding the emblem engraved in their armors, somehow track them down one by one. The pixie at the counter gave him a rather startled look:him being an undead and all. The pixie quickly gathered its composure and asked,"Do you have membership?". Haden lightly responded "no." The pixie smiled and said "Just a moment and we'll have it all worked out." Haden furiously responded by slamming his fists on the counter and saying "I don't have a minute!"

By this time an old man in the back came from behind a closed door asking what seemed to be the problem. Haden finally decided to compose himself and go take a seat like everyone else. He set at a table and thought to himself as he let his consciousness slip into a subded state of tranquility. In his mind, he was deeply infuriated with anger for having to wait to get a few mere, insolent books. He also had feelings of bitterness and disgust at the fact that this was what came to be expected from "HUMANITY" with its finely organized society. He then dreamed again that haunting dream of what had conspired on that dreadful night three years ago as the next few minutes passed in his time of waiting.
