Chapter 12 Meetings in the Night

"Were you followed Loxen?" asked Lauren.

"I watched my back and hid in the shadows," said Loxen, "I wasn't followed dear sister."

"How successful was the raid to Zexion's private library?" asked Lauren.

"It was mildly difficult, although I could never resist the challenge," said Loxen, "the lock was special, it changes every time, and only our Uncle Zexion could have figured it out, let's just say I short circuited the system."

"So," asked Lauren, "What did you find?"

"Many of the books stored there was fascinating," said Loxen, "each one with tales and legends from the world it came from. Many were original copies, while others were transcripts. I couldn't believe what Uncle Zexion stored. There weren't just books; there were also poems and songs as well. Ballads and orchestra pieces as well as many other pieces of knowledge hidden within his private library."

"What about the knowledge from this world?" asked Lauren "Is it true about the legends?"

"Nothing was found," Loxen lied, "there was nothing there."

"Fine then," said Lauren, "I'll just search the library myself tomorrow night then."

Loxen knew he couldn't keep the truth of the Emblems to himself for long, he already had discovered his Emblem, now tattooed to his right arm. What the Emblems meant was still unknown to him. He just had to find someone else in his ranks with their Emblem already tattooed on them.
