A drowess enters the School of Necromancy

Unread post by IAmDiagnosingYou »

A young female drow with snow white hair, tied to the side, and ebony skin enters the School of Necromancy. She wears a long black and gold robe and a long spider web cloak. She appears to currently be wearing no house insignia. She shudders briefly. She knew she probably never would get used to the feeling caused by entering through those doors.

She approaches the front desk. Having no idea exactly what books she was looking for, she requests access to the school's library.

After a somewhat heated debate and the drowess proving that she was in fact a Necromancer despite not being apart of Sshamath's school, she is let into the library by the reluctant wizard. She searches through the books grabbing anything containing information on soul binding, a book called 'anatomy of a soul', a book about the capabilities of maximized dominate person, and any books about soul extraction.

After filling her arms with as many books as she could possibly carry, she makes her way to the nearest study desk. She drops the heavy books onto the table making a loud thud and glances around the room taking note of anyone nearby.

After hearing of the commotion, Tyv'lael enters the study desk and gives Escherichia a polite bow before speaking-

"With whose authority have dos taken these books, jalil? Dos are naut even a student here. Return those books to the library immediately, lest ussa be forced to evict dos with...unsavory means."

Startled by the powerful necromancer's appearance, she stares up at Tyv'lael with wide eyes. She takes a quick second to ponder over the situation and swallows.

"Usstan am terribly sorry, jabbress. Usstan am a necromancer usstaself and have been interested in becoming a student of this school. Usstan had only wished to do some light reading."

She quickly closes the book she had opened and stands up from the desk.

"Usstan apologize for offending dos jabbress. Usstan can only blame ussta unquenchable thirst for knowledge. Dos will naut have to use force on ussa. Aluve."

She briskly, without running, makes her way for the exit.

Tyv'lael would nod just slightly at the woman.

"Ah. Bwael to know, jalil. But dos see, ussa am afraid that ordinary apprentices - let alone non-members - are naut allowed to browse the books dos are currently reading.

Ussa would kindly suggest dos to leave all of them there so that they can be returned to their safe, intended position. It is in dossta best interest as well, of course. It would be bad indeed if something terrible would happen to dos were dos to try and wield a power far too big for your comprehension.

And make sure naut to forget even a single book; the necromantic knights would naut react kindly to anything even remotely perceivable as theft.

Be on dosst way jalil, and have a profitable day."


She offers Escherichia a polite bow, while making sure that all of the books she took are left on the table.

Meanwhile at the school's reception there is more commotion going on. The canny female known to some as Xercia seems to be talking to a representative.

... Usstan have better things to do and tlun done going out of ussa way. If she wants to talk, tell her to meet ussa in the Spider's Kiss.

Then the female turns to the commotion coming from the study. She looks inside and see's the two females argue. She recognizes the weaker one.

You... - She hisses and begins to invoke some power. Then Xercia starts walking aggressively towards the two, but the Death Knights block her path and she is unable to enter the library. Much to her displeasure and even less to the hosts of the place...

Tyv'lael would notice that all of the books are accounted for in the same condition they were when borrowed as one would expect of a scholar.

Stops short of the reception when she sees the aggressive jalil. When she is sure the Death Knight had a good hold on Xercia she would run from the school and cast greater invisibility on herself to vanish.

Where do dos think dos tlun going Dev'lin faern? - She says loud so everyone can hear her.

Funnily enough usstan is here because somebody wanted to listen to some intelligence on dosst kind. - she then eyes the guards - Will the guards be so kind as to actually work for the benefit of their own school?

Looking at Xercia with a grin forming on her masked lips, Tyv'lael nods at Escherichia in gratitude.

"Excellent jalil, it is bwael to see that dos still remember some manners. Usstan only regret is that dos did seemingly naut show them to the Fahliel over there...she seems somewhat mad at dos, mh?"

She draws the attention of a clerk with a gesture of her hands.

"Bring these books back to their places. And remember, apprentices and especially non-members are not allowed to read them. Only full necromancers and higher ranks should be allowed the privilege."

Taking a few steps towards the necromantic knights blocking Xercia, she addresses them both.

"Please, let the Fahliel through. Ussa think she has something important to say to the jalil there, xas?"

Initially still held by the male guards she shrugs off their hands and enters the room giving them an angry look. She recognises the voice as the one asking for the meeting.

The only words usstan have to say to this piece of Dev'lin rothe are invocations, followed by bursts of fiendish energies from the demonweb pits. - She appears not to reach for neither her daggers nor her rapier.

The voice from the illithid mines. Dos wanted to meet and talk, so here usstan tlun. Usstan did naut however expect to see her here under dosst very nose. - she points at Esch.

So ask away, whether dos wish to have her as witness or naut.

She would cock her head at Xercia trying hard to remember her.

// She would probably recognise her or her voice if she didn't break invisibility at that time, as the female spy from Gloura's Wings.

Tyv'lael emits a very faint, metallic chuckle, although said chuckle would appear terrifyingly empty and devoid of emotion whatsoever.

"Why denying her access here? It is always so amusing when the fly gets itself entangled in the Spider's web by its own actions...even more so when the fly realizes its own mistake. True masters of intrigue, these Dev'lin are. But xas, ussa am sure that the jalil here has finished with her business, mh?"

She gives Escherichia a long, meaningful look, casually clenching her fingers around her fine staff of Netherese make.
