Need to see my class trainer

[Curufin isn't in any hurry to leave the castle - since all his immediate wants seem to be taken care of here, he has mainly been occupied pacing the corridors to form a mental map of the place, in his room committing his discoveries to paper in neat, flawless Tengwar, or occasionally toying with the Orb, watching the others rather than making any special effort to communicate. The others seem to be quite interesting, the young princess in particular, but he feels that he hasn't learned much from his observations. In particular, he's wondering why his brothers are not here - he'd seen Celegorm go down, and Caranthir had run off on his own somewhere like an idiot, so they're presumably dead too. There's also the matter of why his clothes have been exchanged for robes.

Curufin has his own theories, but he'd rather find out from someone who knows for certain. Jumping to conclusions and making unfounded assumptions never ends well. It's probably what got him killed, in fact. Had he been less busy laying waste to the royal guard he might have spotted the archer taking aim from the upper gallery - but that's the past now. Not only the past, it's no longer his world.

In the late afternoon he decides to go out. Lighting a lantern (so distracted by his musings he doesn't notice he has used neither taper or matches), he draws his robes around him and wanders the hallways in search of someone official, who might be able to explain a little more to him. If it's a hero they are after, there's no harm in being proactive.

Some food might also be good.]

Tagging any NPC who might be around.

[[The hallways are oddly rather empty no matter where Curufin may choose to wander, only the occasional passing servant bustling by, looking rather put upon as if something sudden had come up.

However, if he should wander into the royal library, he will find a boy of about 12 in white robes, sitting at a table laden with large texts of an arcane nature, absentmindedly munching on a muffin as he studies. Not very official looking, but at least he's not another harried servant!
littlemuffinmage: (Oooo...)

[[It's a rather well stocked library, or at least so it seems so until one takes a closer look at the titles of the myriad books lining the walls. There's a lot of repetition of book titles with at least 40 copies of "Tales Past the Wall" with various different bindings, quite a few copies of "Three Sisters of Ill Fame," "How to Succeed in Kingship Without Really Trying," "The Catching of the Mole and other Bawdy Tales," and similar titles.

It would seem the white robed youth is the library's only occupant, and a keen eye may note that there's no empty spaces on the shelves that would account for his stack of books. Certainly the books he has around him are of a totally different caliber than those lining the walls.

The boy also seems to not have noticed Curufin yet, far too absorbed in his reading]]
littlemuffinmage: (Oh)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-08 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[[The boy looked up with a blink, eyes taking just a moment to shift focus to peer at the person before him. There's a moment's pause before he frowns, chest puffing up in put on arrogance before he speaks, voice coming out a bit deeper sounding than it should.]]

Who dares to disrupt the studies of the Great Wh--

[[He pauses, head tilting a moment before he leans forward to peer at Curufin, arrogant expression evaporating into a much more childish curiosity.]] Elf? [[His voice, matching the change in expression is also far more childish, sounding far more the part, if not younger than his appearance.]]
littlemuffinmage: (Candy Mountain?!)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-08 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[[A frown]] Kori is Kori! [[corrects in a very childish tone]] Didn't there was an Elf... Not like El-- [[a pause before he corrects himself]] Not like Azak. Different kind of elf?
littlemuffinmage: (Huuh...)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-08 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[[There's a bit of a haunted look for just a moment on the boy's face]] Master's gone.... But Kori can answer questions! [[Perks up with a smile.]]
littlemuffinmage: (But the books say)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-08 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[[He frowns, puffing up slightly and re-adopting that arrogant persona]] Are you saying that the Most Powerful White Mage in the land isn't good enough to answer your questions?
littlemuffinmage: (Surveying muffin mountain)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-08 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[[He smiles smugly]] Master said I was the best ever, which is why he trained me. [[There's a bit of the childish persona sneaking back into that boast.]] I've studied magic my entire life!
littlemuffinmage: (Oooo...)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-08 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[[Kori eyes those sparks a moment before perking up, arrogant persona vanishing]] Okay! [[There's a small poof as the books around him vanish into air as he stands up, grinning happily.]] What did you want to see?! Make it a challenge, something hard! Something Kori's never done before!
littlemuffinmage: (Huuh...)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-08 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[[There's a very disappointed look]] That isn't hard at all...

[[He make a very small gesture and the book on the shelf vanishes, only to reappear less than a second later at Curufin's feet]]

Summoning is easy, pick something hard! [[There's a very childish insistence and a touch of pout at that demand.]]
littlemuffinmage: (pic#892691)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-08 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[[another disappointed look]] That's just levitation!

[[Another small gesture and there's a spark of blueish white energy at his feel that slowly lifts him off the ground. He sits, mid air, the soft, invisible cushion of magic beneath him. Almost as an afterthought he reaches out and plucks a muffin out of thin air to munch on.]]
littlemuffinmage: (But the books say)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-09 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
It's not really! It's really basic! Levitation is just using magic to lift yourself up! [[Kori protests earnestly, looking almost disappointed.

And indeed, the first muffin, mostly gone, is resting on the desk, looking very forlorn with the sudden absence of books and mage.]]
littlemuffinmage: (Huuh...)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-09 12:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[[shakes his head with an unhappy look, deflating back to his childish self.]] It just comes back when Kori banishes it! That's why Kori's studying!
littlemuffinmage: (Candy Mountain?!)

[personal profile] littlemuffinmage 2012-01-09 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[[Kori's reply to the first comment was distracted by the question. He blinked once, looking at the muffin]] Yes... If you're hungry, I can make more!

[[And with a cheerful smile, that same table that before was laden with books is now laden with all sorts of sweet breads and muffins of all sorts of flavors.]]
