The Great Library of Palanthas
An Aesthetic shows you to a small reading room.
Stories of Ansalon from the view of Dauer.
A little gully dwarf runs by and says 'Wordwrap Off 65 80.'
The gully continues 'Want color back? Turn Color Back ON!!
Astinus says 'Enter the main library here to view only the author list.'
Astinus gently places a journal on the table in front of you.
You note the spine bears the word 'Dauer' scribed in light purple ink.
Author: Dauer Date: Sat Oct 23 05:38:01 2010 Subject Exile Waves swell and break. Foam gathers then bursts against the smooth wooden hull, oil-stained, and barnable-covered. A minotaur stands at the prow-her body gently swaying in motion with the ship. SHe stands with legs braced and arms crossed before her tatterred robes. Her head is bowed in concentration-eyes closed. Water leaps over the railing and lightly spatter her crimson hide. Nostrils flare every few minutes-controlled breaths. Scars criss-cross her hands and twist around her forearms, disappearing into the robe's sleeves. "Ho! Runt. We reach Palanthas soon." Dauer flicks her tail once. After weeks on the ship, the crew knew this as a sign of her acknowledgement. When she first approached them they nearly threw her overobard-but she defeated the captain in a duel, unarmed. Embarassed-they kept silent and agreed to grant her passage. A black shape darts overhead. Swift. Silent. Dauer's ears twitch slightly. No one else reacts. A feather drifts down. It trails the tips of her horns, twirls above her snout, and hovers over her arms. Before it sinks further, she casually grabs i t. Opens her eyes and glances aside at it. It's a fairly long feather-probably from plummage of a large avian. It's black and gleams a blood-red in the sunlight. She looks ahead and Palanthas spears the horizon. Tucking the feather into her sleeves, Dauer turns towards the cabins to gather her meager possessions. Her exile begins.
