"Not much, I'm afraid," Diane says.

"It is said have been made by a Roman artisan for Marcus Arelius. What exactly it is is not known...be it sword, cloak, ring, whatever. Anyway, Marcus Arelius liked the item so much he ordered his priests and mages to 'Make it unto a thing worthy of the Roman Emprerors'.  It was lost at his death, but has been said to pop up every so often, saving the soul and spirit of one beyond hope. Vampires, a arch lich, lost souls...these are the ones the artifact seems to find."

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Carthrat

"Wonderful," groaned Carthrat. "It'll find me before I find it if it's to be found at all?"
[19:14] <Annerose> Aww, mouth not outpacing brain after all?
[19:14] <Candide> My brain caught up

Anastasia

"Well..." Rachel begins. "Yeah?"

"Perhaps so," Diane says, picking up for Rachel, "But we do not know that for a fact. Even if it's a futile search, we may find something else helpful during it. Furthermore, it's better than just sitting and hoping it works out."

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Carthrat

"Amen to that. With my typical luck, we'll discover that the quest will lead me to an imprisioned white mage goddess who is guarded by Azzuroan and I must defeat him to release her, or something equally convoluted.

Marcus Arulieus.. I'm fairly certain he, himself, *was* an Emperor.. not sure what writers were about at that time, but I'm sure I can find out.. and I'll start looking from there."

"Where do you want to begin looking or researching?" Diane plainly asks.

"The same library I got those books from," replies Carthrat. "Warchester library or something. It's not far from here. I know the way.."
[19:14] <Annerose> Aww, mouth not outpacing brain after all?

Anastasia

"Alright. I shall make inquires along some of my own channels in the meanwhile," she says. "Rachel, will you go with Mr. Tanewaki?"

Rachel merely nods...

Carthrat

Carthrat nods. "I'll be all day, most likely.."

With that said, he heads out... for brunch, picking some cafe nearby the library. "Watcha eating, Rachel?"

Anastasia

"Um, just a bagel..." she mutters around a bite. "So, you do you think you'll *Gulp* find anything at this library?"

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Carthrat

"Well, I found books on Azzuroan. I should find some Latin texts relating to this, at least. Take me a while to translate it, perhaps, but I should manage," replies Carthrat, munching away.
[19:14] <Annerose> Aww, mouth not outpacing brain after all?
[19:14] <Candide> My brain caught up

Anastasia

"I can help out, Carthrat," she says, taking a drink from a cup of coffee.

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Carthrat

"You can read Latin? Well, that WILL help a great deal.." replies Carthrat, pondering..

Anastasia

She makes a face. "My parents made me take Latin all through my childhood. It was terribly boring, but I did learn it," she says. "They were big on the classics like that..."

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Carthrat

"Latin? Boring? Eh.. to each her own. Anyway, we may as well get started.."

Carthrat heads over to the library and begins by searching for texts on both Marcus Aurlius and White Glow..

Anastasia

Sadly, your search doesn't turn up the combonation of White Glow and Marcus Aurelius. There is much about the old Emperor, but little on White Glow.

The few fragments you do find make passing reference to a 'item that he held in high favor', but nothing beyond that.
