Rae laid himself down with another portion to copy, silently and diligently working with the attention to detail he'd honed when scoping out potentially good places to liberate of their valuables... after all, when mapping out a plan for the Thieves Guild to use to case a place, you did not want to make errors, or make things obscure.

Torrent pours herself a cup of the hot tea one of the elven guards brings in. "Ah, a night of copying unreadable scribbles while lying on the floor," she says. "One of the prime reasons I became an adventurer."
[sblock=OOC: Hollister]Hollister, if you want to keep the originals with the party you need to either tell Shealis before you're finished copying (which should happen tomorrow in real time) or wait until the copying's done and then just try to keep the originals. But we need to rp it out.[/sblock]

The 8th Evil Sage
Most of what people refer to as "adventuring" is actually pretty boring. It's not exciting to pack for long trip, or to spend a couple weeks walking through fields and forests. It's the pay-off that makes it worth the boredom - money, loot, fame, or doing good deeds. Still, you have trouble remembering a more boring evening than this one. This scroll had better be more valuable than it looks.
Finally, with cramped hands and heavy-lidded eyes, you're finished. "Finally," Shealis says. She starts to collect the original sheets. "Larion and I are leaving now. We'll get away from the city before we rest. You are welcome to rest here if you like."

"We have a way out for two elves, human," Larion says.
"Yes, we part ways here," Shealis says. "Considering our relationship started with you trying to kill me, I think everything has gone well. I sincerely wish you all well."
"I have an idea on how to get out of the city. Two now, actually," Torrent says. "We'll make something work."

Hollister glares at Shealis. "Fair enough, wench. But get in my way again, and I can promise you I won't be as forgiving the next time." He holds his icy stare on her for another moment, and then turns back to Torrent, considering her words. "Let's get on with it, then. Lead on."

Liiros helps copy the scrolls, though his penmanship is poor by elven standards since he rarely needs to write anything. In the morning, as they finish copying the strange symbols, he wearily asks "Do you think we might rest a few hours before moving out, or should we try escaping this doomed city before the Scourge is invited in? Given how fast the city council capitulated, I doubt they will stall overlong before allowing the Scourge to barge in and run amok as if they owned the place."

Lytha just watches the wordplay silently, she had nothing to add to the discussion at the moment. She thought that Larion was being quite arrogant, while Shealis seemed genuinely friendly, and as such the response of the human wizard to her surpised Lytha, but she didn't know the full story and there was probably more to it.
“We all have a common goal, as far as I am concerned,” is all she says, leaving the drawing of conclusions to the others.
