TOWERS & LIBRARIES

Ah hello hello! Please come in, come come don’t be shy…. Sit there dear boy.

Prey do tell, what brings you all the way up the Tower to my Library?

I have traveled far sir, please please call me Travan….. continue!

Ah yes um Travan , I traveled here after hearing many a roomer of adventurers tasked to gain knowledge from the great Library in the sky, never to be heard of again, I aim to find out their fate…

Adventurers you say, like who??

Well there was Turok the Great, Aladin out of the east and the Legendary Quatermane……..

Yes yes I remember now , they all came here all wanted the knowledge in my halls, fear not young soul they are safe, they all found immortality them and so many others ………

I shall offer you the same choice as I offered them………

You may leave now, return to those who might miss you

Or

Take my hand, to see what must be seen to hear what is to be heard…

I am no coward Sir, I came in seek of the knowing so I’ll take your hand…

Good good come this way , dear boy… all the answers you seek can be found in the orb of Consolice. Before them in the Center of the room on a stone podium sat a football sized glass orb with coloured mists swirling in its depths.

Ah manners, before you seek your answers what was your name?……Bastian

Then step forward dear Bastian seek your knowledge…..

As Bastian stepped forward Travan started to raise his hands

In a flash Bastian was gone, and in Travan’s hands lay a large leather bound book…

Travan carried the volume through a large wooden door to his left and lovingly placed the book on a shelf with the thousands of books already placed, before returning to his desk he read aloud the books title

THE NEVER ENDING STORY

Travan smiled to himself as he sat down and sipped at a tumbler of golden liquid……..

Who will visit the tower next???
