20th of Rebirth's Height - Orb 1

[noblehealer]

[Estelle was rather new to this, but she had no idea what was going on, nor exactly how the orb worked. Once she did, she was sitting upon the ground, the view of the town behind her clear as day.]

Hello, I'm Estellise. it's nice to meet you all. [She waves slightly at the orb, her cheery smile still placed firmly on her face.]  I just arrived here, so I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.

[She goes quiet after that, looking behind her, she glances at all the various shops that were closed. She didn't know why they were, but she knew it couldn't be a good thing. After a moment of looking, she turned her head back towards the orb once more.]

I hope it's not rude to mind me asking but, can someone tell me what's going on? I'll be grateful if anyone can give me any information. Thank you.

If they are passive, then why do people think they'll take over?

[That didn't make sense, but it did make her curious to know more about the thorns, maybe go and investigate.]

Role? What is your role here then?

[for_that_i_run]

I think they are very slowly growing and taking over the land but when I saw them they really didn't do much unless they were attacked. They are a threat but not one that would quickly take over this world. At least that is the case for now. I have no idea when or if that situation will change.

It seems silly really. The people here seem to believe I am some kind of Prince even if that isn't the truth at all.
Do you know what 'role' you are supposed to be?

[noblehealer]

Do you suppose that you would ever be so kind as to show me where these thorns are? I would like to investigate them for myself.

As for my role, I don't exactly know, I just know I'm wearing robes which I don't remember wearing before. Maybe I should ask someone.

[for_that_i_run]

I could. It might be a wise idea to get one of the maps from the library. When you do I would be happy to mark any of the interesting places the map doesn't really have listed, including the thorns.

[While those were on the map he could fill in a bit more detail about them since he just came from there. ]

I'm sure the locals would be more than happy to tell you all about your role. You might not even have to ask them, they do enjoy rambling.

May I ask, what was it you did on your own world? Are you any good with languages?

[noblehealer]

A library? [Do you see the sparkle in her eyes, do you?] It never even crossed my mind that there could be such a place of wonder here.

What I did in my own world. Well, I was in the middle of an adventure with my friends, it was something I've never done before. It was fun and exciting. [Except a few occurrences that happened, but she's pushing that to the back of her head.]

As for languages, I had to learn a few, so that talking with people from other places would be easy.

[for_that_i_run]

[Oh good, she was interested in this!]

There are two that I know of. One in the castle that isn't very well stocked and one in the monastery that you might need permission from the monks to visit.

If you are good with languages maybe you could even read the books in the monastery. I have heard they are written in a strange foreign script.

[noblehealer]

[She stands there quietly, listening and staring at the orb as he explained things. So there were two places filled with books, maybe some she had never read before. Well, this was defiantly something she was interested in.]

That sounds like the books here are a must read, if you are able to. Maybe I will try.

[for_that_i_run]

[And if you have any luck with that foreign script Eagle might have a few 'borrowed' books she could read. Semi-evil plotting. ^,^ ]

You will have to let me know if you have any luck with them.

[noblehealer]

Oh I will! Thank you very much for the information. I should repay you for your kindness.

[for_that_i_run]

I'm glad I could help. I had no idea you were so interested in books.

[noblehealer]

I really enjoy reading. You can find such wondering and interesting things through a book. Though I've been told it#'s not the same as learning from experience.

[for_that_i_run]

No, that's probably true. You can learn a lot through books but there is something to be said for experiencing some things for yourself.

[noblehealer]

That's right and that's what I was doing before I arrived here, but I can still learn as I go.

[for_that_i_run]

There will be plenty of things for you to discover here too and if you manage to decipher the strange language the books in the monastery are written in I would love to hear about that.

[noblehealer]

Then, I'll try my best to figure them out.
