Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*watches as the room has become more clouded with fog*

@Blabbo

*The door is slammed the rest of the way open and I come sliding out, picking up a tool from a nearby table and brandishing at you like a weapon*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*Withdraws the beam into a small orb that rests on my palm, and I hand the drone the book to return it to its proper place, while still observing the woman's movements*

@System

*Both myself and the woman casually turn our gaze to the door, as if looking was spurned by conversation, and after our gaze passes over you, it immediately snaps back to your position, and I disappear, almost as if retracting into her person*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*Places a drone on the book and starts analyzing the language, while I watch the woman in the distance*

@System

*The text almost seems to scramble itself, manipulated into being indecipherable. She stands up and takes a step back from the wall, lookiing over it from a more broad angle*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*When the drone brings the book back to me, I open it up and look for any identifying features*

@System

*The text inside the book is illegible, but some pages do contain detail diagrams of poses and stances, as it were a combat manual of some sort*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Hm.
*Retrieves a book and returns it to myself*

@System

*The girl squats down in the distance, to trace text along the wall closer to the ground*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*The drone scours the halls for additional entrances and rooms, and also scans the bookshelves*

@System

*The hall meets a dead end without any noticeable doors, and the bookshelves contain text equally as indecipherable as that on the walls*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*The drone creeps along the walls and visits the library above*

@System

*Occasionally the library's floors and shelves aisles contain a charred outline of an ancient human body, but the rest of the room is still utterly silent*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*Nods*
Contact me if I can be of use to you.

@Nimda

Ditto. Take care.
*Floats sideways through the rift*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

I wouldn’t suggest worrying about eavesdropping.
*Retracts my drones to my palm*

@Nimda

I’m not ovey concerned. Otherwise I’d have talked about something else.
*Holds out two fingers and smoothly slices open a rift in space*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Certainly. I intend to keep my research beyond discreet.

@Nimda

I trust you’re good enough at that, so long as our talk right now isn’t being listened in on.
