[QUOTE="Seravin, post: 2814164, member: 6783"] [b]Exchanging Tales[/b] It was late morning when Jallarzi stepped through the gate from the Valley. Her expression was one of impatience. Looking about the entry she heaved a sigh and went to find her companions. The wizardess found her friends in the Blue Room. The grim looks from the night before were still there. Jared looked up from his book as she entered and smiled faintly. “Good morning. How is the Library?” Jallarzi wrinkled her nose. “Stupid.” She sighed and then elaborated. “The Library itself is good; lots of books, labs, and everything. The sick wizards are still sick though.” Jared’s brow furrowed. “Why? Don’t they have priests who can restore them?” “They’re turning it into a lesson.” She snorted with disbelief. “I asked about it and was told that magic shouldn’t be used to fix everything, and they were using the opportunity to chart the course of the poison.” She shook her head. “Don’t let them take care of me if I ever get sick.” “No problem.” Agreed Kestral cheerfully, then her voice turned serious. “I just got back from walking a little while ago and we were waiting for you to get back.” Jallarzi caught the tone. “What happened?” “The chuch of Latina has a big fire in it right now and people are saying there are monster on the grounds. Oh, and Captain Ladea has been arrested too.” The last was delivered with a sigh that delivered her exact feelings on life’s general unfairness. “The church is on fire?” “More like there’s a pillar of fire shooting up through the roof and twenty feet into the air.
