Oooh the drow is. Not having an easy time of it. The rainbow halo is now replaced by rainclouds.

You are correct. Elirhondas had frequent intellectual exchanges with Thulanthar. I was schooled to have dealings with the Netherese scholars. She said it matter-of-factly, without any boisterous buffonery. Truth be thought, this wasn't a time in her short life she looked upon in hindsight with much sentiment.

''Interesting. I was not aware you being someone of this age'' They replied with curiosity before being bothered by something that was happening not to far

''I...They sighed inwardly ...please wait a moment''

They turned away

''You are in need of assistance'' the mindflayer simply stated towards and into the mind of the unsually disturbing elf, bringing Akh Uur Hoon into the telepathic channel as well.

Akh chose not to have thoughts about her real age. She turned her attention to the Drow.

There's a tiny yipe from the drow as Illiam'iira sloooooowly turns around. Her rainclouds dissipate in a single burst of (softish, for its proximity) thunder as big big eyes stare at the two of them.

...that's new!

Very sorry! New to the library! Was I being too loud? I am so sorry.

Towering over the elf, the illithid gave her a stern glare and a cold reply

''You were distracting, to be precise.''

L'Orr-hui's hand tightened on their blakened staff as they took the time to breathe

''Well now.'' the mental voice was now even, devoid of emotions ''Come over and tell us your about query. Mayhaps we can speed your search here''

She freezes a moment before slooooowly creeping forward.

I wanted to research slaadi, uhm, is there a book or pamphlet on how the library organizes itself? I don't want to be a bother.

The illithid had becomed conflicted. On one hand the drow was disturbing their research but on the other...as much as they loathed to admit it, that overly sweet sparkling cupcake was not an unwelcomed distraction from the other woman's cerebrum who had begun to hint at it's richness and complexity of taste.

Lady Akh Uur Hoon was potentially the delicacy of a lifetime and that is why L'Orr-hui should focus his mind on something else at the moment

''I cannot spare the time in the immediate but perhaps Lady Akh Uur Hoon can help you?''

"Oh..." She looks between the two of them. If it would not be a bother? There's been a recent influx of slaadi with unusual behavior, and many have died. I would like to be more prepared for the future, as well as try to find if there's any mention of similar behavior from the past. The drow gives them both a bow. I am Illiam'iira, and I'm happy to help with your research as well once I... uhm... understand this library's system of categorization better. If you would like.

To compare her mind to a cupcake would only be partially accurate. Swirling between her ears is... more than a touch of chaos. More thoughts than what she shares bump against the communication, racing, racing, hot.

"I suppose I can help you with that, Illiam'iira." Akh Uur Hoon stepped away from her lectern and nodded for a greeting. "Let's see what we can find. Records on Planar beasts incursions, Limbo section, should be over there..." She walked unhurriedly in that direction. If there was any sense of unease of getting hints of the flayer's hunger through their mental channel she didn't show it.
