"If I would just have real arms now..."

68th Summer, AV 513 [Wright Memorial Library]

This was a usual day for her again. After the night passed some students and others came to the university's library to read. Again directing the people to the right place, again placing the books to the right sections and again telling some pupils what the library is really for. Business as usual and she kinda enjoyed it somehow. Like she had some meaning in that unlife something which was hers. Although after a time she had to realize it wasn't everthing, she was missing something or somebody.

She put the last book back to its place and she was kinda tired. She looked around the library: Students were reading, someone was searching and there was silent it was a perfect time for her to rest a bit. Her soulmist needed some regenaration and that was important. She was walking away from the place quickly. She found herself a corner where there was no people at all only her. It was time now for her to read a bit. She took a book which immediately took her attention from Kenabelle Wright: An Account of the Circumnavigation of Mizahar

She took a seat and took down the book at the table and openned it. She started to read it. Chapter one:
'Who can say where a story really begins or ends? Everything that happens is inextricably interlaced with what has happened before it, and perhaps only the gods can assign a true point of beginning.But, when one has decided to accept the responsibility of chronicling certain events, one is obliged to start somewhere. This document represents my attempt to record the details of the voyage of the [[Seafarer]] and its circumnavigation of Mizahar, and so perhaps the best place to begin is with the decision that led to the ship's construction.'
Hmm, this book could interest her father very much. She was reading it silently and slowly as her mind was wandering around sailors and around her memories. She had some memory when she joined to her father's ship it was beautiful.

She turned a page: '...And I, young as I was, had no credentials at all. Most guild members began by working an apprenticeship at age eighteen or nineteen, sometimes as a deckhand or stevedore, but no mere apprentice would be permitted to sail past the end of the known world, and almost no apprenticeships lasted fewer than five years. I simply didn't have enough time. But dreams die hard, and some dreams won't die at all.' Dreams, she didn't have one anymore. She sighed and... chapter two.

Chapter two... she couldn't continue. She heard a big noise. She left the book on the table and went through the shelfs. It was strange but she was in hurry. Some students were suprised that a ghost went through them. She then found the section she was 'looking for'. Bunch of books were lying on the floor. The chair was flipped over too. She just stood there and looked who did this. A man who was yelling and was totally mad. "NO THIS IS NOT RIGHT... NOO. WHY CAN'T I DO THIS?" Some other people was already there to remove him from the library.

Fascinating, she thought. She had to take care for the harder part. Take the books in the right place and order. She was not ready for this. Her soulmist, she had to be careful and use minimal of her power for it. She started with the chair. She grabbed the end of it and let her soulmist to push it forward back up. She slowly but continuously pushed it up. She didn't want to used all of her power. She has done it. Then she did a bigger push and moved it to the table. It made a bad, ear hurting sound. Elaine forgot that its legs were on the floor and it scratched it.

This time she had luck and didn't do any damage on the floor. "If I would just have real arms now..." She looked at the few books she had to take care of. 3 of them were at this shelf but 2 of them were from other sections. She picked up one. She touched the book with her hand let her soulmist around it and pushed it up to the table and took it down there. She openned it. It was about glyphing. 'Focus - A single, large glyph that stores magic. When magic flows into the Focus, it disappears until released. The Focus can be thought of as a mirror: if a fireball is thrown into it, it will be expelled from it with the same speed when released. '
