IA: A Teacher for Laynie

[Bront]

Are the questions asking for Vanitri's thoughts on those particular aspects of magical theory? If so, he can perhaps theorize based on some of the research he has already done.

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Nope, they are asking for the correct answers, generally in the format of "Explain in 1 to 3 pages how...")

 

[Bront]

Vanitri will try to ascertain who the leading professors on magical theory are, and see if there are any papers or books in their offices.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Vanitri does a quick search and finds the top professors on magical theory. He can't find the answer to any of the questions with any of the professors, but he does find one of the four questions mentioned in the lecture notes of Professor Graf Hilbert. It is listed as one of his 'Unanswered Questions of Magical Theory' .*

*By now, Vanitri is getting tired, and Laynie is even more tired, since little girls need their sleep. They've been at it for over 16 hours, and they hadn't literally just woken up when they started.*

 

[Bront]

"Unanswered questions eh? Sneaky."

Vanitry fills in to those four questions that not all questions of magical theory have been answered yet, nor are ment to be answered. In particular, he mentions Professor Gaf Hilbert even lecturing on the one he had in his lecture, and uses a few anicdotes from that lecture in each of them. With that, he asks the Librarian to watch over Laynie, who's likely falling asleep in the library, while he goes to turn in his form, before he returns to the library to rest for a bit.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Vanitri heads up to submit his answers. Professor Galton proves to actually be there.*

"Oh, so you finished early? Did you answer all of the questions?"

 

[Bront]

"Well, from what research I've done, there are still some questions about magic that remain unanswered. Of course, if all the mysteries of magic were easy and everyone were answered, there wouldn't be an Accademy then would there?"

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Ah, very good. That's true. So did you miss the ten that weren't in the library or just the five that were unanswered?"

 

[Bront]

"There were only 9 that weren't in the library, and four that were unanswered Sir. Or at least by what my limited research indicated."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"No, there were ten that weren't in the library and five that were unanswerable."

"Here, I'll show you," he rummages through the papers at the bottom of the pile that Vanitri did last and pulls out the five that weren't in the library, "There, you found the five that weren't in the library."

*He pulls out the ones just after those that Vanitri claimed were unanswerable.*

"And there's four of the other five. Where did you put the one about chronomancy? I can assure you that it isn't in the library--chronomancy exists only in dreams."
