Bucko shifts foot to foot waiting to see when the others are going to actually go into the building, as he wonders about saying more, but he cannot think of anything he needs to say.......

"Yeah...."

Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....

Inside the building there are two stairwellls going to the second floor and one below ground. Books upon books are in aisles from the front of the libary to the back. Centered is two people, looking humanoid sitting at a big desk. A few others mingle about and sit down in small sitting areas at the end of the aisles-four in total. It looks perfect in diameter. It just huge. From the outside its hard to tell how big it is-perhaps some sort of magical nature "I will be back. Bucko? Behave." He goes to gently put a hand on the cleric's shoulder before moving it and departing up the set of steps.

Kisaiya blinks at the gentle touch.  A bit of red comes to her cheeks.  Then, she nods, then moves forward to place her book where the returned books go.  A big part of her wants to browse for more books, but clearly, this is not the time, so she returns to the others.  She places a gentle hand on Brokk's shoulder.

"Behave now, okay?  I made enough trouble, don't want you getting in trouble too."

Brokk puts his hand on the shoulder of Bucko.  "There will be a time and place my friend!  Let's stick to the plan and just behave ourselves!"

Kisaiya chuckled.  "You two are trouble, aren't you?  Thank you for keeping us on track, Brokk.  Whatever that track is.  I am still confused.  Maybe someone will share that plan with me at some point?"

Brokk nods to Bucko's assessment.  "Sounds about right Bucko.  Damn machine took a big cut out of me too!  They don't bleed no blood but, you can cut them just as well  Kissya."

In reply to Bucko Rackingclaw (msg # 215):

"That's not a bad idea, Bucko." Isaac says as he approaches the librarians. "Excuse me, but I am looking for a specific piece of information about constructs. Can you find someone to assist us?"

Brokk laughs, "I don't know how you do it Bucko.  Very good idea!"

The half-orc waits while Isaac inquires about the constructs.

Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....

Bucko smiles broadly at his leadership and wonders if it is really that hard to leads big folk and especially stoopid who-mans........

Pointing fingers and yelling works on goblins, but not who-mans....they are stupid and lazy creatures has to be talked into doing....so much talks

Although it has been a brief few minutes, Bucko is already moving foot to foot and searching for enemies amongst the stacks and rows of books....

Bucko remembers the clock he had seen....

Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....

The two of them which appear to be humans wear the same thing. One of them speaks "You want to use the library to obtain construct information?" The other speaks out after "A variety of information is at your disposal. Four down and on the left." She looks at the other who speaks at the same time "Have a pleasent day!" Oh this is weird.

Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....

Isaac nods in thanks, heading to the location indicated. As they walk down the book-lined aisles, he says to his companions. "I intend to find if any records exist for that symbol you found on the constructs. Perhaps it'll give us some clue to the master of your foes."

"They have stuff like that in books here Isaac?" Brokk asks since books aren't his thing.

"They do, if the creator has been active in the past. Books are an excellent way to pass knowledge to others, even if the person writing it no longer exists. I don't know if we'll find what we are looking for, but at least it's worth a try and something to do while we await Xander's return." Isaac replies.

Brokk nods, seemingly impressed with the Paladin's thought process.  "If we find something Isaac, do we need to wait for Xander?  Who knows how long he could be here?  We could leave word where we go if he needs to find us."

Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....

A sudden though occurs to Bucko and he strains his brain just a little and he calls out to the others....a bit too loudly....

"Before was Jay Are....might still be!"

He clamps his hands over his mouth, it seems that the idea of not blurting out thoughts was something he was still learning...

Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....

Kisaiya listened, then let out a breath in exasperation.  "Boys, boys, boys!  Please!  We know that a man is dead.  We know that Bucko was attacked.  We know that constructs did that, or so you told me.  And none of this happened in the Library.  Perhaps, our efforts will be better undertaken at the place where the attacks happened?  I do not believe there is more to be learned here.  Now, I am new here, just a girl returning a book.  I have done that.  So if there is something to be learned, perhaps looking about elsewhere would be useful?"

She took another breath, hoping that she had not offended her new friends.

Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....

Isaac answers "From all accounts, the wizard and the rest determined there was nothing more to be learned at the battle site. Their gnome artificer is looking into the constructs themselves, but the only clue as to their master was that R symbol. If there's nothing found here, that may happen, but I was told we had nothing else to go on." Still walking towards the stacks, the paladin can't think of another option at this stage, since he wasn't even involved in the actual combat.

Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....

Everyone hears clear in their minds:

HUSH! THIS IS A LIBRARY!


The two librarians go to help Isaac looking for the 'R', but they find nothing. Isaac probably knows its relatively new and Xander probably mentioned it. Finding out something new in a old library doesn't really work.

Its possible to look up different knowledges as well. Xander doesn't return. Perhaps wrapped up in personal issues?

The librarians speaks out once they contend with Isaac and in a quiet tone they speak at the same time "Need any future help? We can do what we can! Thank you!" Odd ducks. Its like they are always near! Freaky.

Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....

With the help of the librarians, Isaac finds...nothing related to his searches. Perhaps he needs newer books. Saying to the librarians, "Unless my companions have something else to look for no, we will be leaving. I thank you for your time and aid." and heads towards the exit unless someone objects.

Once back on the street, Isaac says to the group, "I'm intending to ask at my Temple about any serious diseases or the like in town. See where that leads. Any and all of you are more than welcome to the blessed House of Sarenrae!"
