[D4, EE] Toast of the Cage

[Thaddeus]

"Oh, I've been here and there. Been out to the gate-towns, even made it out to some of the outer planes. Couple of burgs in the Prime. I'm actually going to one tomorrow. Have some research to do in a place called Candlekeep. Guess it's got more than its share of greybeards there."

Illiam'iira sits up in her chair... and almost topples out of it. "Really? Could I come with?"

Illiam'iira sits up in her chair... and almost topples out of it. "Really? Could I come with?"

Thad considers her request for a moment. "I have no problem with you going 'long, one should not turn down the opportunity for a new experience; however, be warned that I can't guarantee your safety if you come. Traveling the planes can be a temperamental enterprise. Plus, we're goin' to a library. A well guarded library, but a library none the less. If that holds an interest for you, then you're more than welcome. You'll need to meet us at Four past Antipeak."

"Oh, I've been to Candlekeep before!" She grins. "I like libraries. Books are fun." Books don't judge you!

...usually.

"What're you goin' to Candlekeep for, anyway?"

"I've volunteered myself to a researcher heading there to find information on some obscure magics. Don't typically take the pro bono work, but I have an interest in seeing this place myself. Sounds like it has a lot to offer someone willing to look."

"Oh, it does. Candlekeep's fun." She grins. "I can show you some of the more interesting sections of the library, if you'd like."

A grin comes across Thad's face, "I would like that very much tiny dancer." He leans a forward in his seat and sets his glass down on the table. "Tell me... what is it that you find interesting in the library?"

"I'm not that small!" She crosses her arms and pouts... but it's play-pouting, the sort of thing you do with friends to amuse them. Illi leans back into the chair, letting her hair fall down the arm, where it almost touches the ground... almost. "Depends on what sorta things you're into. If you know where to look and what to look for, though, you can find erotica passed off as historical accounts, or poetry books that're secret treasure maps, illustrated guides to the peoples of the multiverse with jokes scribbled in the margins..." There's a soft hmmm at that. "I like looking at poetry and songbooks and history books, myself. And treatises on the relation between musical theory and the laws of reality. Oh, and books on Evermeet, and Myth Dranor, and --" She blinks. "Wait, do you mean, like, places in the library?"

"I see, so you like to find the dark... the secret things hidden where you wouldn't 'spect. There certainly is a thrill to scanning what someone's hidden.
