Pending Quest

[Astron]

The alchemist and Rouchefort have been searching the books and scrolls in the archive so long they had even reached the third floor of the bookshelves.

The alchemist halted her search through the books and turned her gaze to Rouchefort who was not far from her.

"So you are a human like myself. Your foolish decision was loving. While mine, well..." She turned and put the book in her hand back into the shelf.

She raised her head with the hood still covering her. She pointed at a large scroll container with a black stone on the shelf.

"You should bring that one. I think what we want is in there." She said, changing her tone.

Rouchefort silently went and pulled it out and handed it over to her. The alchemist took out the scroll and unfolded it. "Yes, this is it." She spoke, sounding almost relieved.

A tremor that came out of nowhere was felt and they both looked around.
