Gold rush

[Nephrite]

"Don't worry, I figured that out after a few more trips through here." He says with a smile. "It's like why Grias is still a lantern archon."

"It's good that you understand, Moore," Xandra goes to the farmhouse, "Let us look around and see what lies here."

[Nephrite]

He smiles and goes to look inside and see what he can find!

"I had to tell a story once to get into Xiranthador." Moore says as they look around. "I think it was a pretty good one, I mean... they -did- let me in..."

[Anastasia]

Inside a rustic farm kitchen you find...Erathaol, who sits at the table with a book. A steaming warm bowl of soup sits by him along with a chunk of crusty bread.

Erathaol turns the page, puts the book aside and has a bit of bread. Only then does he answer, "The soul that lives here is currently out," he explains, "But the book you're looking for is in the next room."

"Were we that transparent?" Xandra asks, a moment to look abashed.

"Not at all, but do not fear merely asking - you need not spend time on these matters like a mortal unless you wish to," Erathaol states.

[Nephrite]

"Even so, it doesn't feel right to do that sometimes." Moore says. "I have to ask Celestia every now and again." He adds with a smile. "Even if the will of Celestia is the same as Lord Zaphkiel's."

[Anastasia]

"A wise lesson to learn," Erathaol picks his book back up, "Continue on, Moore."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods and will do so and go find the book he's been told to find!

[Anastasia]

It sits on a table here - a plain tome, but one that seems to glow with a slight radiance.

[Nephrite]

Moore moves over and picks it up to open it!

[Anastasia]

The book is written in a glowing script. It has no title, but begins to talk about the light immediately.

[Nephrite]

Moore sits down to have a read!

[Anastasia]

Give me another Charisma check.

[22:21] <Kobot> Nephrite rolled 1d20+36+16 --> [ 1d20=4 ]{56}

+4 for 60.

[Anastasia]

You begin to read. It looks to be a reverent study of the light of Celestia - as much a prayer as anything. What in particular are you looking for?

[Nephrite]

Light to banish even the darkest shadows.
