"I guess people don't come in her often anymore" Lop said as she began to look for books on the stars and their meanings "Why don't you find a nice story book" she suggested to Ginevra,

You do find several books on the stars.

Lop examines the books to see if they give any clues to what Giuseppe was looking at.

The first thing you notice is that the stars are quit clearly different.

"This doesn't make sense" Lop muttered "The stars don't just change" she pauses "well not unless a long time passes"

It's very clear from what you saw. The stars in the night sky do not match the star maps that exist in Malevolo.

Lop shook her head and put the book down "Ginvera have you found a book?"

"I found one! "The Gloomy Paladin and the Horrible No Good, Very Bad Day!" Ginevra said from the back of the library.

"Come on then, let's go back to the Inn and we can read it in comfort" shop said as they headed out of the library.

Ginevra gave you a big smile and followed after you. You arrived back at the inn without incident.

Let's go find somewhere comfortable then" Lop suggested leading Ginevra inside.

The rest of the kids have gone to bed, so the common room was empty and there was Ginevra's bedroom.

"I guess I'll read a story so you can sleep" Lop suggested to Ginevra "Let's get you ready, and I'll read to you till you nod off"

"Yay!" Ginevra said as she ran off to get ready.

Once Ginevra was ready for bed, Lop took the book and began to read "A long time ago, in a faraway place.."

Ginevra pulled the blankets up high, but you can clearly see her excited, sparkling eyes as you read.

Lop continues to read the book, trying to do voices for the characters and make it as fun as possible for Ginevra.

Ginevra yawned.

"Thanks, Lop," she said quietly before falling asleep.

Lop waits for a bit till she is sure that Ginevra is asleep, then quietly gathers her things and leaves the room. She carefully heads down the stairs and onto the street. "Sorry, but if stay it's only going to cause you grief" she said softly and began to head out of the town.

You manage to reach the edge of town without a problem. Before you was a simple paved road.

Lop adjusts her backpack and starts down the road keeping an eye out for puppets or walking dead things.

There was nothing there, just the road and some trees on either side of you.

Lop kept walking, wondering if she could have made better choices and resolving to become strong enough to protect those she found,

"Ho there, traveller," a voice off to the road said. "Walking this late can be a danger, care to share my fire?"

Lop looked about for the sound of the voice, and carefully moved towards it "A fire would be welome" she replied.
