[ Mostly because he's not sure if the knight has noticed he can't see, and would rather not let him know... ]

.... How many are aware of braille? ... cannot seem to get a grasp on it... [ As best as he feels comfortable asking for help. ]

[Filtered to Healers/Magic users*]

....Uncertain how many can; magical healing. Aware there are ways to cure various ailments; poisoning, contamination, temporary paralysis or petrification, slow, ... an ailment that I do know how to explain to others, but effectively weakens and prevents one from from doing much of anything in battle. [ He got distracted. Ah. . . . ]

... I do not know how to do such things myself. Wish to know, if any do, and if they think it possible to learn. [ He got bled on and he couldn't do more than heal physical injury.. and maybe not even that well. ]

.... [ Yeah, he's done, and going to head to the library now.

and possibly frustrate himself with attempting to learn braille unaided but. ]

Braille?

...I read a beginner's book about it. Could probably teach you, if I could find the book again.

...Shouldn't be too hard.

[He needs something to do.]

I know bugger all about magic, but I do know there are non-magical cures for the ailments you described.

...Should be easy to teach you which ones.

.. likely the trouble with own attempts. [ He keeps finding all the complicated things.

a bit of silence, and a somewhat defeated sounding light-headthunk. ]

... would thank for aid.

Alright. Meet me outside the library in ten minutes?

.... not things that would require sight to tell apart, are they...? [ He's the blind guy, remember? ]

Aware of some non-cures - however seem to be world specific. Panacea bottle, stone, seal, contamination, poison - cure specific things when drunk or doused over target specifically.

.... Capable. [ It's just harder to find the right way to other towers.

S'up, Jorge, it's Duke. Looking like his pride in ability to do things on his own is stinging. or half dead. ]

Most medicines from my world use braille on the labeling to make them easy to use for people with sight issues.

I'm sure when you're good enough you'll be able to use them.

[He's being positive, Duke.]

Otherwise, I'm sure I can teach you the names and what they do. It would depend on the contagion or poison inflicted.

[Jorge hasn't been waiting long.]

Hey.

...You okay?

.... irritation at slowness in picking braille up on own. [ he's not particularly thrilled at asking for help. ]

...Well, it's hard learning another language.

It was this way. [He has no doubt that Duke'll be able to follow him. A SPARTAN isn't exactly the most quietest walker in the world.]

.... [ He still thinks he should be able to pick it up without help.

But yep, he's following. As eerily silent as usual. ]

[hm hm, is it okay if this comment takes place after Duke is a bit frustrated having spent time trying to read braille books? Because if that's the case, he'll have a Colette who spots him looking frustrated and will want to ask if she can help :3]

[Sure! He's.. just slowly getting more irritated with the little bumps in the book, not paying too much attention to people moving about...]

Ah... are you alright, Sir? [/fret fret]

[ qoaueghdvnklc

This is what happens when he focuses too much! She totally startled him. ]

... Well enough. [ Sort of.. blinking in her general direction. ]

[Apart from a heat signature and movement, Jorge's sensors barely register Duke at all. That unnerves him somewhat.]

Should be around here. Give me a second...

[He goes off into the shelves to find the right book.]

Take a seat. Table's to your right!

You just looked very concentrated... I was wondering if I could help with anything.

.... Unknown. Do you understand? [ this is left unsaid, but he does turn that book. bumps and dots, that's what he's trying to make sense of. ]

[hm? she's not sure what he means... but then she sees the book as he flips the page]

Oh... no, I've never seen a book like that before.

Hmn. [ that would be his problem. He can't-

Wait. ]

.... Is there a title on the spine? [ He.. may have an idea, and holds the book out toward her. ]

[she takes it, and looks at it...] Yes! It has a title in words, and it has some of those little bumps on it.

[ooh, what book it is?]

[ It says something like Annuls of the Almesera. Maybe some sort of a lorebook? Not something someone should start trying to learn to read with their fingers with. ]

Do... you think it possible to find a.. copy of the book, with none of the... dots? [ He means a normal version. And to find out what text matched the bumps, so he could figure out the words!

... if Colette would help him. ]

Mm! I'll look. [she checks the name one more time to remember it, and starts examining nearby books shelves]

It's called Annuls of the Almesera... do you know what it's about?

..... Almesera, assume. [ Really.. really flatly said. And that wasn't particularly polite of him so. Adding on, a moment later, somewhat.. quieter. He's not that comfortable admitting this. ]

.... Have not been able to understand.
