WHAT: Part two of this
WHEN: A few days after the Crystal post
WHERE: Various points in the Gallows
NOTES: Mention of blood magic

Waver had been pleasantly surprised by the response he got to his initial question regarding where one might consider hiding missing books, and equally surprise that the contents were not as big a turn off as he had anticipated. Far more important than either one of those things though was that there were several people willing and ready to help explore the highs and lows of the Gallows itself.

A. The Old Templar Tower
Towers had come up time and again, and the idea of going and mucking around in all of them seemed to be an exhausting task. It had to be done though, and there were a number of old chests found in the tower itself.

It was a total crapshoot if any of the old, rotting chests would have anything. Moreover, how easy they were to break would define the whole experience. Looking at the chests, doubting their contents, Waver sighed.

"Did anyone think to bring a hammer or something?"

B. Exploring
There were books. Lots of them. But not all, and to that end Waver had been unhappy with what were otherwise stellar results. The only clue as to where the others might be had been in a little note found on a far older inventory list in handwriting that he didn't recognize.

On the note had been speculation that some of the mages had hidden a number of books, but the question of where was yet to be determined. Waver was quick to pass the note around, and hope that someone might have an idea of where to go.


C. Wildcard
Mix and match, and tag around. Part D/finding the books will be posted later on after some of A and B have been done.

"It is not, of course, finished," he said slowly, sitting back and inspecting his mess with a critical eye. He clenched and unclenched his hand which was starting to get a writing cramp.

"Your kind words are welcome, nonetheless."

It was nice to be appreciated.

"The lower floors would, perhaps, be the best starting point," he said after the ache had receded from his knuckles. "They are the most likely to have secret ways and hiding spots."

That hand clench did not go unnoticed, and Waver made a mental note to offer to do any and all writing for the rest of the day. The suggestion on where to start gave him an idea on how to make it so.

"C'mon then. Might as well go together."
