SataiRolePlayingGuy Posted yesterday at 03:06 AM Posted yesterday at 03:06 AM Umi led the short way to the door, large, stone, covered in gems. It had no handle or knob. She put her hand on it, the gems glowed, and the door slid open as if it was light and easy to push. She stepped inside let the others follow, numerous shelves with many rows of books stood in front of them. Many sizes, most in elaborate covers, many showing their age. Some were one of a kind. It was a large enough collection to deserve to be called a library, far too much for a few people to read everything quickly. “Take a look, see if anything sticks that you might want to know. To help with the current problem, or anything else you might want to know. I will look as well.” Jumi was not completely surprised by Shinigami’s offer. Was happy she was considered cute. Of course she hoped to have another round of that experience, and honestly would be happy to let Mitsuko watch. This sort of thing got her worked up, but that would have to wait for later. For now she just followed into the library. “Not my first time in here, but it has been a while, and I’ve only looked a little in the past. No idea what we might be able to find. Look for any titles that stand out. They are reasonably well sorted.” There was no catalogue or guide though. Just labels on the shelves indicating various subjects. 1
Warning Posted yesterday at 04:15 AM Author Posted yesterday at 04:15 AM (edited) Mitsuko entered the library first, being with Umi at the time. At the sight of the shelves, she gave an impressed look as she wondered how they were going to do this. "It's larger than the manor's library. I suppose we just need to find anything that may help us.". As Jumi and Shinigami joined them, she looked at the two. "Hmm, perhaps we could try and find anything we can about Lenneth. I know Nall also spoke of Althena... With who they are, they might be easy to find if it's here. For Shinigami or that girl, it might be harder.", she told them before she started going. Shinigami didn't seem to mind having to dig some books but she eyed Jumi. "I'll do what I can. If I see something, I'll tell you.", she said before she moved. Mitsuko went by what labels she could find. A lot of the subjects were interesting but unless they wanted to be there for quite a while, it was best make better use of their time. She knew some mythology and folklore that she studied at her school but where to start first was still quite the question. Anything regarding gods would be a first good attempt, even if the gods involved were not any deities known by japanese cultures. How much information did this library have was yet to be found. Something regarding divinities attracted her attention to one shelf but now, the issue was to find if these would speak of the ones she looked for. "I'm going to be here for a while...", she said quietly before she started checking books. Shinigami, on her side, was not exactly a good reader and so her experience with a library was pretty limited. She was a fox born to kill or at least fight. Besides, she barely knew of Lenneth so her only hope was to search about something related to herself or the girl claiming to be "Death" if anything of it even existed. Would humans even have written about that? With this amount of books, chances were she would find more nonsense that she didn't understand than a piece of information giving her answers. She was not going to complain anyway. Heading to the shelves then walking between them, she gave a look at the books and tried to see if anything picked her curiosity. Anything that may feel familiar or magical. Edited yesterday at 04:17 AM by Warning
