Chapter 15:
The castles library was a large room, with shelf upon shelves of books that covered every wall.
Spyro, Hunter, Bianca, Elora, and I each started from one section, and one shelf, and worked our way through in hopes of finding something.
"What are we even looking for again?" Hunter asked. I looked up at him, he was on a ladder looking through the high shelves.
"Anything that might have been written by a human. Or anything thing that just gives us a clue as to how those portals were built. "I said setting a book back on the shelf.
" Of course there must be millions of books here. It'd take us forever to find it, if there even is one here." I mumbled.
"Have some confidence Fayra! We'll find something I'm sure!" Spyro said. He stood up on hind legs to look through another shelf. " We'll tear this library apart if we have to."
"Yes.. Your right. Thank you." I replied as I went back to looking. I walked over to another shelf and pulled out another book. Elora, who was standing next to me looks up. She squints. "What about that book?" She asked.
"What book?" I ask.
"That one." She says point to one on the higher shelves, It was a brown book with no label on it.
"That is weird…" I said. I used my magic to pull it out just enough that it fell to the floor with a loud THUMP.
I picked the book up off the ground and dusted it off. The cover had a gold engraving that said ' Vol. 6'
I flipped the book open and started scanning through the pages. The book was clearly old. The paper had turned yellow and fragile. They were all covered with different sketches of different creature and places and objects. All with little descriptions in them.
"Do you think this could be one of the books?"
"Yes I do believe so!" The professor said excitedly as he held the book in his hand. "In fact it's nearly Identical to the one I have." He opened his desk drawer and pulled out the books twin. He then flipped it open to the first page and said, " They both to be written by the same person. Someone by the name of Luna Linba."
"So that means we might be on the right track, right?" I asked.
"It would appear so. It seems Luna was either the creator, or had part in creating the portals. Of course I only have part of her original blueprint, so the rest is in another book out there."
" Well how many books do you think we looking for?" Spyro asked.
"My guess would be that there are 6 books in total. You just found book 6, and I have book 4, that means there must be four more books out there." The professor guessed.
"Luna Linba. That name sounds really familiar doesn't it?" Hunter asked, looking at Elora. She Rested her hand on her chin as she thought about it for a moment, before perking up and saying.
"Ya, ya we've heard that name before! Fayra, Spyro. Let's go visit Avalar, I think I know an old, greedy collector we can talk to."
