Chapter Three
Rose grinned at the guy in front of her as she handed back his paper, waiting for his response. His eyes shifted downwards and quickly scanned vertically along the paper until his face lit up, obviously finding his mark.
"Congratulations Robbie, that was a brilliant paper. Your effort and hard work really showed."
"Th-Thanks." The guy stammered before he moved off, bumping into tables as he went as he was still staring at his mark.
Rose shook her head and went to pack her bag up, she had another lecture to give in an hour and she needed to drop off this bag and pick up her other one. As she moved her papers she accidently knocked a book onto the floor. Placing the papers into a pile Rose shook her head and mumbled about the 'Dax effect', then she bent and picked up the book. It was titled "Obscure Myths of the Urban Celtic" and Rose's curiosity was immediately piqued. 'Urban Celtic'? There were no urban Celts in history; in fact such a thing couldn't exist. The Celts didn't have cities or metropolitan civilisations.
Flicking the book open, Rose scanned the introduction until she found what could be an explanation. The book spoke of an obscure cult of Celtics who formed a city to protect a power magic. All traces of them had been wiped from history except for a few obscure myths and the odd reference here and there in ancient civilisation's documents. Rose thought briefly on this, thinking that it could be possible, although it was highly unlikely.
Seeing that there was a page marked further in the book, Rose flipped it open to the new page and started reading a myth about the legendary 'Heart of Innocence'.
