An Aesthetic shows you to a small reading room.

Stories of Ansalon from the view of Khoren.

A little gully dwarf runs by and says 'Wordwrap is at 65. You change? Off 65 80.'
The gully continues 'Eyes hurt? Turn Color OFF!! (regular story dates)

Astinus says 'Enter the main library here to view only the author list.'
Astinus gently places a leather bound tome on the table in front of you.
You note the spine bears the word 'Khoren' scribed in dark yellow ink.

Subject     Khoreen goes to work

The room is well lit, with candles hovering in the air burning at
both ends. 
At the desk a robed figure sits, seemingly lost in thought.

The figure clad in rich red robes seems to mumble to himself
"The days,
years, seem to be flying away.... comfortable rut". He gets up
from his desk
and wanders over to the fire place in his study, falling back on
one of the
comfortable sitting chairs with a glass of wine in his hand.

If you were to take a look on the outside of this study, you
would notice
the plaque stating that this is Khoren the Highmaster's room. 
Not many
apprentices or initiates visit this particular room often. Mostly
because of
the bad reputation the petty elf holds with the neophytes.  In
truth, Khoren
just can't stand incompetance, and has much too high of
expectations from the
young mages.

So on this late night, this particularly high ranked red robe
mage had been
writing a letter to the archmage of the red robes, asking him for
permission
to leave the tower at Wayreth.

Khoren was getting tired of this stuffy tower, he wanted to get
out and
explore, search for magical artifacts, and most of all - make
money.  Just
like in the days before the Conclave.

His rationale to the Archmage was that he would be searching for
valuable
magical artifacts, spreading good will among the people, and
looking for new
talent to recruit.

So now Khoren, the mage without a family name, eagerly awaits the
morning
when he can personally deliver the request to the Archmage.  To
begin a more
fulfilling life.

Hopefully a more financially rewarding life... Khoren is tired of
living such
a modest life.

And Khoren can't format worth a damn ;p.
