The librarians and Eve helped the blue haired girl take care of Nova after she passed out and and the guardian wrapped her wound before she and the blue haired girl joined everyone in the main room.

At first they are all quiet and just watching Jenkins who is watching the door where Nova is.

"Okay what did you do to her?" Jones said breaking the silence. Jenkins just looked at him with sharp eyes telling him to shut up and he did. To them Jenkins maybe sarcastic and a bit anti-social but never scary and right now he is. Something about the girl affected him too much and they can all see it.

"She called you Galahad. Why would she call you Galahad?" Cassandra asked.

"She called him Galahad?!" The blue haired girl said as shocked as Nova when she first learn of Jenkins identity. "You're Galahad?"

"And you're Arrian." Jenkins said.

"Well now I can see why she panicked like that." The girl he called Arrian said and she started doing unknown magic in front of her.

"Please don't panic too" Eve said.

"I'm not but she might be right and i might have been wrong about this dimension."

"She's been talking about wrong dimension earlier too. What is that about?" Jacob asked.

"First things first." Eve interjected. "Who are you and that girl?"

"She's a siren" Flyn said pointing to Arrian "He's a knight in the round table." He said pointing to Jenkins "and she's Merlin's daughter." He then pointed to the door where nova is. "Now please continue with the navigation. I've always wanted to see siren magic."

Then suddenly water began swirling in front of her like a water tornado. "He's right." She started as she continued her magic. "I am called Arrian and I'm a siren. Nova is a sorceress and daughter of Merlin and he is," she then pointed at Jenkins "if we're at the right dimension, is a knight in the round table. As for your question," she then turned to Stone. "As far as I've gathered, when Charlene and Judson closed the library, Nova's brother cast her out of the Library a little too late and she landed on a different dimension. Her being a door opener tried to make it on her own to her dimension but being out of practice she kept ending up on different dimensions until she called for my help and i brought her just an hour ago to your door." Just then swirling of her water stopped. "And i was right this the right one. You!" She exclaimed pointing at Jenkins "you have to be there when she wakes up" she said as she began dragging him towards the room where Nova is and just basically throwing him in the room.

"Is that a good idea?" Cassandra asked.

"Did you not see how she reacted to him?" Jacob commented.

"She was pretty scared of him" Ezekiel added.

"Nova reacted the way she did because of false hope she had had before. If she wakes up without him there she'd think it was a dream and react just the same the next time she sees him. Maybe worse."

"What exactly is their relationship?" The guardian asked.

"Well that's a long story. One i can't not tell but to make it short he was her guardian and protector until he died. Well allegedly. But given who bare the news at the time everyone easily believed it."

"I've read about her before. The daughter of Merlin." Flyn announced.

"Yeah and? Who is she?" Jones asked.

"Well that's basically it. She the daughter of Merlin and she's a sorceress. Her magic focuses more on opening doors to other dimensions hence the title door keeper." Flyn summarised.

"Yes that's right." Arrian added. "She was the one who saved us, sirens. We were hunted for our magic to navigate but we can't travel to other dimensions so she gave us that capability.

"And her connection to Jenkins?" Eve asked.

"Well Merlin was a busy man and often left his children to the care of others particularly the knights. As soon as she can walk she was left to them. At the age of 7 she can fight as good as most of the knights. At 14 she can compete against the most respected of them. At the same age suitors started to pile up at their door steps."

"At 14?!" Cassandra exclaimed.

"Well darling, ancient times, ancient traditions." Arrian answered. "Once a female started to bleed it means she is eligible for marriage."

"I'm glad i wasn't born at that time." Cassandra whispered.

"Yes and most of her suitors were only after her powers and Merlin's name so they decided she needed a guardian who can intimidate her suitors and who better guard the daughter of the most respected and celebrated sorcerer other than the son of the most respected and celebrated knight."

"You mean to tell us he's Lancelot's son?" Jacob asked almost disbelieving Flyn. They never thought Jenkins was a knight and now they are being told that he is just not any other knight. "Sir Galahad titled as the greatest knight surpassing his father? The sir Galahad who have said to be the only one who found the holy grail? That Galahad?"

"Well there's only one Knight named Galahad at the round table."

"And he ended up being a caretaker of the library? Great for him." Jones said.

"Well this is her library." Arrian answered "but i am more curious as how you know this story." She said turning to Flyn. "All records of her were either hidden or destroyed along with paintings of her."

"Well...i read the history of the library"

"Did you said this is her library?" Eve asked.

"She like books. She loves Reading as much as she loves sword fighting. More often than not when the knights return from their quest they always brought her more books and eventually her collection got bigger that they built her her own library." Arrian answered.

"In addition her brother protects magical artefacts and likes to hide them in the library and so the library needed more and more space and it got more and more popular. People from around the world heard about it and many wanted it from themselves so in order protect its contents she opened a door to a vacuum dimension and her brother, the room keeper, transferred the whole library there. Hence the library is in different dimension. But they soon found out that they can't protect the library as big as it is and it just kept getting bigger so they needed the library to have its own mind to protect itself." Flyn continued.

"So the brother became the library's spirit." Eve added.

"Correct."

"Then why did she became a library's spirit too?" Cassandra asked.

"That i do not know." Flyn confessed "all the book said is that she died."

Then they all looked at Arrian who they guessed knows the continuation of this story. "I don't know either." Arrian answered. "When i came back to visit her all they told me is that she died. It took a hundred years before i found out that she became a library's spirit.

"Maybe we should asked him." Ezekiel said and pointed at Jenkins who just arrived and they all looked at him./pre
