Loukas Ouranus:
Afterwards as he is eating Balthazar asks his question. Suddenly he is quite quiet. When Jaleh speaks he looks curiously at the Hedonite. He ignores A'kos, because he does not know who the two men he asks about are, but when Heinrich asks his question he nods, "Our German friend makes a good point, Balthazar. How serious are you? Does this mean you have some information at least as good as that which brought us here to Apollonius's Library to begin such a quest?
"What would be the point to a life devoted to experiencing all life has to offer if you could never find the things you are supposed to experience? Friends, my Hedonism training allows me to
find the path to any destination, albeit only once a week. This would mean I would get a direction to our goal, for which we travel along for a week, then I would check in with my 'inner compass' and see if we need to change our direction, or even if we overshot our goal. I imagine the trip would be several months in the undertaking."

"As far as vengeance against Emperor John and his pet... I do not think that anyone here has more reason than I to desire vengeance, but undertaking such a project requires something like insight into what schemes they have afoot to foil. Do you have such information?"
"I'm not talking about foiling current schemes, I'm talking about vengeance for past ones. Granted, I'll know more about what we can and can't do after I've examined these 7 spell books available here."
