OOCPink text is Vani
When Kendall had heard that there was a library in Avanthal, he could not get started looking for it fast enough. It had been far too long since Kendall had walked the halls of a library. The last time had been back in Zeltiva. It seemed like lifetimes ago. He could only imagine what this library could have. He was so used to Zeltiva's literature, although Zeltiva did have a good share of books from across the continent. Avanthal's library had to be interesting. The Vantha had been up in the north for so long and they had a Goddess living in their city! Besides, the hope to find information that would help him find a way to free Ivak was ever present. First off, he needed to find the place.
The blond walked alone, trying to see something, anything that would point out where the library would be. His limited knowledge in Vani helped with looking but sadly, it seemed he still had a lot to learn in the language. Finally he stopped a passing Vantha to ask for help. "Do you know where the library is?" The Vantha smiled lightly at him. He was very clearly an outsider in this city. If his lack of fluency in the native language was not an immediate tell, his blond hair was sure to mark him proudly as an outsider. No Vantha had such light hair. "Yes, head down this street and then you should find it. It is a brown stone building with a set of stairs in front." Kendall nodded and thanked the stranger before walking off again, trying to work out what exactly it was that they had said. He only knew bits of it. He clearly needed to polish up his Vani.
When the blond finally reached the library, he pushed through the doors, and smiled lightly at the sight of so many books. He felt at home amongst them. He could not wait to get started but then it hit him. The books were probably written in Vani too. Maybe there would be a book that could teach the language. That would be helpful.
Kendall's mismatched eyes scanned the library in search of anyone who might have been on staff. His gaze stopped on a man who seemed to be napping at the counter. He walked up slowly, looking down at the worker. He was not sure if he should wait for him to wake up or try to wake him himself. "Um… excuse me? I need to find a book. One to teach Vani." He bit his lips nervously, hoping that his words had roused the sleeping man. He didn't want to try to poke him to wake him up.
