These past three days were exciting, more amusing than what Jaixe would have hoped for. He had no idea that exploring the texts of a world so foreign to him would enthrall him so, let alone that this Death Knight would be almost as learned as he was in deciphering the texts and offering accurate analysis on the topics they detailed. He was as much a master as Jaixe in being a learned scholar, and such a fact surprised Jaixe. Still, in the past three days, he ensured to keep his praise and commentary in favor of streamlining the process of sorting and deciphering the vast storage of information.
And then there they sat, across from each other once more with naught but a coffee table and the all-too familiar soft cushions of the chairs surrounding it. When Raal inquired as to what Jaixe would do after departing from this now drained archive, Jaixe had pondered. There were missing links, blanks, holes in the information they had gathered. While he understood the need for haste if this plan was to work as intended, he also knew that such gaps must be filled before long. Ignorance would not stand. Not again, not when Jaixe had been given such a wondrous opportunity.
With that in mind, it was clear what his choice would be. “I will linger longer in this world and find the Archives of Ultan. There is information we yet lack that I would like to have my hands on. I will inform you of any results.” Jaixe spoke with confidence in his choice, standing up from the seat with a half-smile. “Would that I could stay here for a day or two longer… It was far more entertaining than I thought it would be.” He commented before directing his attention back to the seated Death Knight. “It would be best to avoid direct contact unless necessary. The less people can assume of our connections, the better. I would rather work in anonymity in regards to my relation with your affairs, and it should be likewise for you.” He commented stoically, watching as the Death Knight gave a quick nod of approval.
“It would be for the best.” Raal agreed, and watched as Jaixe gave a nod and departed from the library without another word of departure. To Jaixe, saying anything else would be unnecessary. When next they meet, it will either be with success or failure in achieving their goals.
With that in mind, Jaixe departed the glass structure of the library and once again stood on the platform. It was mid-day, multi-colored cars that floated in invisible lanes already flowed busily through the cluttered skies. Jaixe almost wondered what it would be like in the lower tiers, but shook the thought away. He waved down a taxi, who looked similarly to the one he rode in on, driver included, and then departed for the nearest elevator that headed down into the lower tiers.
