[color=c4df9b]"What is that even suppose to mean?"[/color] Scott snapped angrily. He threw the book aside in frustration. [color=c4df9b]"Belle! How unspecific. That could mean anything!"[/color] He had found mention of this Book twice before, once called 'The Mortal Records', and once called 'The Book of Power.' A Sorceress by the name of Madeline Rennette had written of it in her Grimoire, which was later mass produced and sold even to the Humans for profit after her death in the early years of the War of Immortals. The problem was Madeline was French, and Belle could refer to any number of creatures, it was exceedingly annoying that she never named the Book's carrier. The other book he'd read about it in was much older, written by a pre-Fae Vampire, who also called the Book's carrier Belle, the confusing part was the writer was Greek, so his theory of Belle referring to a beautiful woman was looking less likely.

Unless the name was Belle? What kind of name was Belle? Latin maybe? It might be older. It could very well mean the word was the carrier's name, not in fact a vague describing word as he'd originally thought.

Grumbling under his breath, Scott turned to his table of ingredients. He spotted a worn pouch and hummed thoughtfully. Was a glimpse of the Book worth a bit of Hecate's Ashes?

Perhaps.

Hannah immediately brightened at the prospect of more water, but seemed torn between drowning herself in every last drop [i]right this second[/i], or continuing to be polite to the kind sisters. Eventually her British blood won out. [color=7bcdc8]"It's nice to meet you, Yuki. Thank you for the water, I'm quite parched. It's been a long journey inland."[/color] It hadn't been, not really, but Hannah would need to tell some white lies to disguise the real reason she was so desperate for water.
