"Welcome!" someone shouts at me cheerily, waving me forward as though they knew me. Pulling me along, they dragged me through their rugged doors, "I think they had an abnormal event happen recently, so I can't help but feel bad about not helping..." "Well, this is the main Guild-hall, where..." This girl said this into one ear and out the other, since my brain was otherwise occupied by the many faces, the Hall, and many other things, but mainly a door, ancient looking, and pristine among the damaged surroundings, and I looked for an answering face amongst those who sat, stood, or whatever else they were doing around me. "That's the door to Zuo Cii's library, an amazing bastion of knowledge, or it once was..." she drifted off on that sentence, and I didn't push the subject. "Anyways, this is Lamia Scale, and I've one question for you."I immediately held my breath, awaiting the question with bated breath. "Do you want to join our family?" she said with absolute sincerity, almost threateningly, but not.
"Absolutely" I breathed.
"Absolutely" I breathed.
