Ghosts of the Aerie’s past
We continue through the Aerie of winter.
Reaching where one of the primary cargo elevators was, we
find that the side of the Aerie has been sheared off. Here the influences of
the shadow forces upon the Aerie are most visible. There is a shadowing echo of
the missing parts of the Aerie that continue. These shadows remain level
(unlike the Aerie itself that is canted due to its crash).
We can see movement near the top of the Aerie.
We have chosen not to pass through the shadowy echo parts of
the Aerie and are, instead taking an alternate route through the Hall of
Heroes. The Hall of Heroes is what separates the martial areas of the Aerie
from the University. We can hear the echo of training within the Hall.
We have skirted the Hall of Heroes to go to the Library.
Voss and Olen are worried that the spirit of their great grandfather
is somewhere within the Aerie. He is the most infamous of the Nefleheim family.
He impaled thousands of Goblin Natives during the conquest. He was executed as
a tyrant after the war.
We are going to the Library. All of the walls show a slight
shadow echo (the echo is true where the real walls are slightly askew). The
Library has been ransacked but there is some sign of the books being rearranged
and restacked.
Within the library a skeletal librarian sits behind a desk.
Upon seeing myself, Voss, and Olen he crossed three things out in a book. The
book seems to contain lists of eladrin associated with the Aerie. Older names
are more crossed off while newer names are not. Rationally, it would seem to be
that the names crossed off would represent Eladrin who had died. This is
contradictory, however, with what we have just seen.
