Characters: Those in the Kron/Wasters thread

"Tvarne" replies ...sage as the healer heads for the door.
"The docks might be a good place to pick up information. If you _do_ hear
 something, then try and get a message back to the Inn. I will make sure 
 that there is someway that we can all keep in contact."

"Agreed and good luck" answers Tvarne before heading out of the Inn.

The mage turns to Littlefair and handing him a small wooden box says
"Please keep this in the event that you need to get word to me, or another 
 does." "To reach me, open the box and place in it a message, either on
 parchment, vocally, or some object."
"The opening of the box rings a tiny bell in its twin which I possess."
"When I open my box, the message will come forth, or the object placed
 within will fall out."
"It is only one way though, so anything you place within cannot be retrieved
 from it, only from my end."
Littlefair takes the box and places it on a shelf behind him and writing on
a small card <<to get to ...sage>>, places the card by the box.
He gives a curt nod and says "it shall be so" before returning to his work.

..sage turns to the others that answered his plea to help Kron.
"Please do likewise, if the need arises." "I will make sure that if word
 needs spreading, then it will be done."
"If you find nothing within a couple of days, head back here." "if you do, 
 try and send word and the rest of us will try and reach you." "Let us not
 allow Kron to suffer for crimes of which he is innocent."
"I am off to seek the Wasters. I fear that there is more to this than just
 them so prepare yourselves against whatever is to come."

His blank white eyes suddenly seem to darken to crimson and with a sharp 
breath gasps "oh no, not the library."
His form starts to fade and as he disappears calls out, "find out what you 
can, I have to stop the damage to the Great Library."

..sage's form has gone, like the dew on a bright spring morn, and an 
unsettled thought crosses some of the minds of those present.
"The Great Library? Now what has that to do with all this?"

ADMIN: ...sage lives and works in the Great Library of Generica, which will
hopefully be detailed by me in a post later on (so hands off for a while
please). Stored in the basement, away from the assorted 'safe' works of 
general interest in the upper floors, are the magical tomes and books of
mythological importance.
	...sage spends (spent?) much of his time digging up these old books
in an attempt to discover his past, but still to no avail. Many of these
books deal with creatures that predate man and his ilk, though of these books
..sage has yet to research fully.
	An alarm has been set up by ...sage in this section to warn him of
potential danger to the books. This alarm has just gone off ...........
 (more to follow later [work permitting])
