[ Gary has spent the past few days in the clinic, recovering from the wound he arrived with.

He's already pieced together parts of the puzzle...magical castle, abducts people from different worlds, magical journals that people. That part he can totally dig, magic has been one of the cornerstones of his job for the past thirty years.

There's just one part that's bugging him....what's it all for? He's a man who finds randomness uncomfortable. True back home any action could usually be put down to "because it's the gods will"  but he likes to know there's a reason behind an action and that everything can be boiled down to a system.]

Ok uh...is this thing on?

[He gives the journal a tap...he's used to talking into some of the most top of the range, high powered communication devices. You'll have to give him a moment to mentally readjust to something so...basic.]

These things aren't exactly the latest phone system or Ipad but I guess it'll do.

Alright...so this magical castle we're in.

Does it have any...you know owners or anything?

[ He asks because part of him needs to know if he's escaped The Ancient One's potential wrath.]

I wouldn't be so quick to write such ideas off kid.

An idea has to come from somewhere right? Even ones originating from madmen have to come from something that’s been seen or experienced, even if their insanity distorts the facts a little.

[In the old texts The Ancient ones originally had seven heads, lived in a volcano and were thought to be omnipresent but as time went by and more level headed philosophers went over them the facts became clearer.

But that still didn't make the findings any less pleasant.]

It may be different for different worlds, of course. [His tone remains blandly pleasant.] But if such books were to exist, I believe I would question what that source may be and what its intentions might be. Very few things in any world come without cost, after all. Magic and power most of all.

[honeytoes]

Amen to that.

[His tone is solemn...respectful.]
