Chapter Three
Guinevere spent a good hour wandering the castle trying to find the a Royal Sorcerer's tower so she good request some magic to help her with fixing the library. She knocked on the door and heard a grumpy "Come in, it's open." So she entered. Cedric was surprised to see the girl who bumped into him in the village in his tower said "Haven't you caused me enough trouble today? What in Merlin's mushrooms do you want?" Guinevere, despite being annoyed by his tone, replied kindly
"First off I would like to apologize for running into you in the village today, it was completely my fault I wasn't paying attention to where I was going, I'm hope you could find it in yourself to accept my apology. Second, because of circumstances we never properly introduced ourselves. I am Guinevere Rosewood, the Royal Librarian, and you are?" Cedric, wanting to be rid of her so he could finish working on his schemes, replied exasperatingly "I am Cedric the Royal Sorcerer to King Rowland II and I accept your apology. Now shoo!" Instead of shooing, Guinevere walked over to a stool and sat on it, saying "I also need your help for something and you have two options on how you want to help me."
"Why on earth would I have to help you? Go read some books and leave me in peace."
"I'll leave you in peace but listen to me first."
"Fine." He grumbled
"As you probably already know, the royal library is in complete chaos and I need some help fixing it. And that's where you come in, I need magic to help clean off all the cobwebs, dust, dirt, fix furniture and lift the heavy books. And since your the only sorcerer I know, you get to help me." Cedric let's out a a groan and an eye roll after hearing this. Guinevere ignores this and continues talking. "You have two options. One: you can teach me magic so I can do it myself. Or number two: you do the magic yourself when I need it and I leave you alone in peace. What do you pick?"
Cedric, annoyed by her commanding tone says "I choose neither! Now Go!"
"Great" Guinevere says "I'll see you tomorrow at ten in the library to help me clean the mess up. Don't be late!" Guinevere smiles, and sashays out of the room.
Cedric, mumbles to Wormy "Looks like the only way to get rid of her is to help her clean that bloody library."
