Bloodline 237
Out of the library for now it seems! Can Ember face Denrim with the new and awesome powers that she’s tapped into? Given her options, she just may have to!
New Fanart!:

New Fanart!:
Well, she may have at least a little bit of time to get things together. As well as at least one witness.
*DragonXR6 story time!*
“The nerve of Denrim and that Tennin, she stole one of MY books!”
The librarian goes around checking to see which book Ember took
“That Tennin took a book on cantrips” the librarian said a little interested
“If they where such a dangerous reader as Denrim said then why would they need a book on cantrips, something doesn’t quite add up”
The librarian then goes to their desk and writes a form saying the book was taken. A couple hours later they lock up the library and headed home.
“Come to think of it what if that Tennin was actually just a thief, but I wouldn’t see that as particularly dangerous, or maybe they work for someone who’s dangerous. That doesn’t make sense either, if they did work for someone dangerous why would they need a book about cantrips. None of this makes sense but I guess it doesn’t really matter. I don’t need to get caught up in that buisness and I just want that book back anyway. I will say this though: that situation and others like it doesn’t make one think”
The librarian gets home and goes upon their nightly routine.
*I couldn’t figure out the librarians gender so I tried to keep it as neutral as I could. Hope you enjoyed the little story of mine and just so you guys know it is NOT canon, it’s just a little story I made up for a little fun. Hope you guys enjoyed and maybe you’ll see another story like this one by the next chapter*
I feel for the librarian. Ember is in a bit of a pickle right now isn’t she? But she has a book on cantrips so maybe she can find a speed enhancing cantrip (yes I know that would probably be a higher level spell but hey you never know). Wonder what her dad is up to probably more culty things.
Ember: I can haz book?
Librarian: You can not haz book.
Ember: I haz book neow!
Librarian: Not haz book!
Denrim: yap yap yap yap yap yap yap
Yes she has book
As a Book Lover, I absolutely HAVE to like this meme.
Ember is still inexperience in magic, she has primarily worked with theory crafting over the years. As we know not everything will work 100% when you first apply it, there will always be kinks. She should know even with cantrips to attempt to counter Denrim she can’t win in a strait up fight. Denrim has the experience, and more likely raw power as well.
Though I wouldn’t be surprised if as soon as Ember steps out side Mence and Ken grabs her. Or at the very least block off exit points and/or keep civilians away. I’m leaning towards the latter since it was a crowd of civilians that drove them off and with prying eyes away Denrim can do whatever he wants. I would assume Ember should stay on the defensive if she really is going to take on Denrim. Not just because she hasn’t use magic offensively attacking Denrim is still attacking a member of the guard and that will never look good for Ember.
Though what the librarian says at the end is interesting. So no one is allowed to borrow books from the library? I guess that would prevent the problem from a wandering spellcaster/reader or a patrol member from borrowing a book and taking it with them out of town; probably never seeing it again. Now that I think about it that reasoning does make sense that libraries or at least this one doesn’t allow visitors to borrow books.
I feel like the librarian should just follow Ember out to get the book back as the books in the library is his responsibility. Probably should also prevent a fight from both Denrim and Ember from breaking out; after all this is a library and not a tavern. The librarian can threaten to report Denrim’s actions to his superiors to try and prevent him from starting something outside the library. Though we don’t know if others have done that already and Denrim just doesn’t care.
judging by his face the librarian will have one heck of a late fee waiting for her when she gets back.
Yep, Ember and Denrim are a couple of troublemakers.
