Search Party’s Log,
Scion 85, 1327AE

We’ve been searching for Lady Tempest in the Priory library for days now. Fortunately, the Priory cooks are keeping a constant supply of food going… I wonder if it’s coincidence that the entryway into the library annex is hidden in the kitchen, or simply a matter of making sure those Priory eggheads remember to eat?

You’d think it wouldn’t be hard to find someone in a library, however in the week that Lady Tempest’s guild waited before dispatching us the library has been filled to standing room only. The Priory attendants apologised for the crowd and claimed that they weren’t expecting such a strong response. When we were far enough away to do so without blowing our cover, Agent Ihaz cracked that when you make an army of bookworms, then field soldiers or not, of course there’s going to be a stampede when you open the doors to the formerly hidden library.

Despite the small size of the library, it takes hours of gentle squeezing and apologies, day or night, to push from one side of the library to the other. Some of the scholars have even set up sleeping rolls in some of the more open storerooms so they don’t have to push their way back to the main entrance. Inquiries have revealed a few scholars that reported seeing someone matching Serine’s description, but by the time we reach the reported section of the library, all evidence indicates that they have moved on.

We’ve kept someone posted at the fireplace day and night to catch her returning to the kitchen, but either she brought her own library-friendly supplies, or she was missed in the constant stream of scholars emerging, tucking into a hurried meals, and washing and drying their hands before pushing straight into the library.

We will continue the search, but I fear it might not be until Wintersday before we finally succeed in locating Lady Tempest and dragging her away from these books. If the other scholars are any indication, she will probably be kicking and screaming all the way.

But quietly. This is a library, after all.

To those who think Scarlet hate means she’s succeeded as a villain:
People don’t hate Scarlet like Game of Thrones fans hate Joffrey.
They hate her the way Star Wars fans hate Jar Jar Binks.

I spent a good long time reading all the books in there. I was pleased to know that the Ascalon Census was still in the same condition from when I last picked it up 250 years ago.

I just kind of wish I could go in there outside of the story instance, now that I have permission to go in there. I mean, the lower level of the Durmand Priory is already instanced, so it’d be easy enough to keep anyone who hasn’t played up to that point from just wandering in. Then we can just wander into the kitchen and then down into the gigantic library. I’d be happy even if the super-secret part was sealed off. I guess it’s a minor gripe, though, since it is a purple star instance.

I plan on going back in just to read the books! I got so excited when I saw how many we could look at and get a bit of history out of. It was also a lot of fun walking around looking at all the stuff as well.
