Secret in the Library

Being in the city of Qabarat wasn't so strange because of the aiudara--many people visited the Shining Jewel of the Western Sea. Being invited to the Threefold House, however, was impossible! Well, maybe just unheard of.

After presenting proper credentials, you were escorted through the vast halls of the High Cathedral and into a vast library. It took a moment or two to realize that this was the Great Archive.

There were already a dozen or so people in there.

One of them rushes forward to greet you... an elderly-looking man with weather-worn features, white hair and beard.

"I am Callistratus, Grand Vizier of the Great Archive," the man says. "We are waiting on just a few more people to arrive. Then, all will be explained."

Secret in the Library

He'd simply received an invitation to call on someone named Callistratus at Threefold House. He wasn't familiar with the name, and he couldn't imagine why he'd be invited to Threefold House, but few people ever really got to see the inside of the house. Of course, calling it a 'house' was a bit silly. According to legend, it had started as a simple house, but over the years... centuries... it had been added to, modified, expanded, redesigned, enhanced, upgraded. Now it was the seat of government.

It wasn't until he was escorted into the library and Callistratus introduced himself that Solsantharis learned who he was. Or that he was in the Great Archive.

A serving tray with glasses and wine and finger food was on the table in the center of the room. The table looked out of place, including the dozen chairs set up around it.

"Greetings, Callistratus," Sol said in reply. "I am Solsantharis. I am flattered to be here, but I'm baffled as to why."

Secret in the Library

Sonaeu had just returned from her most recent show and was looking forward to a little down time.   Being an Idol was some mix of exhilarating and exhausting at the same time, and she was admittedly a bit of an attention monger.

She paused to check her appearance in a mirror, loosing the sunglasses so she could better examine her reflection.  With just a few touches up, she was back to her perfect looking self.  She flashed her reflection a winning smile before returning the sunglasses back on her nose.

Once in the library, she gave Callistratus an equally winning smile before she helped herself to something non-alcoholic and some of the finger food before settling into a chair to relax.
