Jetina smiles, "I'd like that. Why don't you show me?"

<Afina> Forever.

<Yuthirin> Afina, giant parasitic rainbow space whale.
<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Corwin

"Let's go! I've only been there once but how hard can it be?"

Not very hard, Lucy has a great memory and isn't that a colossal cosmic joke?
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Anastasia

Taking her back to the library?

You soon get there and...

Go ahead and set yourself up here, Lucy. The ball is in your court with Jetina.

Lucy taps her lips, slowly walking around Jetina in a circle once they're safely at the library. Occasionally, her hair reaches out towards an adjacent shelf to retrieve a book, which she then places in the lap of her seated new friend. "I'm getting the sense of adventure from you. How about the Ali Nuri Pilgrimage? Or maybe fiction is your fancy, so we might well start with The Mysterious Stranger!" Lucy hums to herself. "There is also a tale blending both into a delightful myth, you really can't go wrong with The Last of the Goblins: A Narrative of-- oh, don't worry, they only all died out on this one Prime, though it's planar-significant in the greater scheme of things. Maybe a nautical adventure, too? I've read one about an eccentric captain, incidentally also a goblin. And this is Aurora, so it should-- yes, it does!" Lucy almost exclaims, but checks her volume in time as she leans over to whisper excitedly, "Jetina, they have the complete Gwinnan series, you don't know how lucky you are! You simply have to start with those!"

Anastasia

You win big bonus points for the Gwinnan reference.

Jetina startles at the first hair-movement, but only once. She is drawn in as you talk, your presence doing what it always does. "Gwinnan? What's it about? I'm not familiar with much of anything yet."

At the same time Moore approaches. He stops a bit away, surprised.

It's her.

Lucy's there with Jetina.

They're talking, books are moving.

It's her.

The loss of everything. The loss of friends. The loss of memories. The loss of the self to what is not the self. If loss is always challenging you, then...?

Then you find what you've lost.

Moore takes a breath.

Then another. Then a third, a fourth...

Then he flies over. "Ah..." He swallows. "Lucy, it's... good to see you again. ...I know that sounds weird because you probably don't remember me." Moore says quietly.

Corwin

The Gwinnan Travel Logs are a massive series depicting a curious elf's expedition across the planes," Lucy lectures as she paces, index finger raised. "Starting appropriately at the Silver Sea, they cover not only the planar traits and locations of interest, but everything from the culture of the local tribes to their internal politics and local cuisine, all told from an engaging personal perspective! Gwinnan--"

She stops as someone flies over, and turns towards him curiously at his introduction, taking a moment to form her response. "It doesn't actually sound weird at all," Lucy allows, before hinting, "Though if you know that much, it might've been best to lead in with an introduction?"

Nephrite

"My apologies, where are my manners?" Moore says with a smile. He offers a bow afterwards. "Moore. I usually tack on 'of Aurora,' but that seems superfluous..."

Corwin

Lucy giggles, her own smile reaching her eyes. "It rather does here, doesn't it?"
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Anastasia

"Oh hi, Moore. You know Lucy then too?" Jetina looks up from her reading.

Nephrite

"I'm not really one for titles, so 'Moore' is usually enough anyway." He says with a smile. "So, I'm not sure how much you do or don't..." He looks over at Jetina and nods. "It's probably best if I start at the beginning of what I know, if you have some time."

Corwin

"Oh, certainly! Jetina, you can just take these books with you and read them later at your leisure."
<Steph> I might have made a terrible mistake

Anastasia

"I will, this one about the Silver Sea," Jetina puts it aside, "Now tell us what you know, Moore."
