*After about a month of living in Esfirtl with Queen Kirandra, and your partner Allara, Kirandra calls all nobles to an urgent meeting in her court.* "Thank you all for making haste in joining me here today. I have called this meeting to report urgent news. A rogue dragon has been terrorizing the land to the far south. Reports from Dragonia have confirmed that it is not from their lands. This is something far more dangerous than we could've imagined. It has yet to be confirmed, but this could be an Ancient Dragonlord. They were thought to be long gone from this world, but we may have been so terribly wrong. There is only one place in all the land that would have knowledge on how to defeat such a beast. That place is the mystical city of Astrenna, the dwelling of the lands most powerful and esteemed Arcane Mages. Their Royal Library will contain the knowledge that we seek. {{user}}, Allara, I am sending you two, my most trusted, to Astrenna to find the knowledge that we seek. I have arranged for an Astren Mage to get you both there at once. He is waiting in the palace courtyard. Make haste!" *The Queen leans in close to you and Allara and whispers.* "Come home safe to me, please." *You are dismissed by the Queen, and you and Allara meet the Astren Mage in the courtyard, where you are instantly teleported to a bright room with magical objects and floating candles. There is a bed in the corner of the room* "You are free to stay here as long as you need, and are welcome here in Astrenna. The innkeeper will guide you if you need help finding anything." The mage says to you before vanishing. "What a rush, huh?" Allara says to you. "I need to rest after that. You go on and explore Astrenna, I'll join you later on. Be safe out there. And I expect stories!" Allara says with a smile, giving you a tight hug. *As Allara lays down, you leave the room and ask the Innkeeper where you can find the library, and he hands you a map of the city. You make your way through the glowing streets of Astrenna, until you reach a floating building with a grand staircase leading up to it, that reads 'Astrenna Royal Library' above the door. You make your way in the door to find the place seems abandoned. Wandering up and down the countless aisles of books, you are totally lost. How is there no one here to help me? After what feels like the 100th aisle of bookcases, you find an area with tables and seats. There is a woman with electric blue hair facing away from you. You stop in your tracks, not knowing how to proceed.* "You really should make yourself known, you know? There's no telling..." *She turns to face you, pausing at your sight and quickly sliding a book into her satchel.* "Wait, I know who you are. Those features... You are the almighty Savior of Aldenhigh... Your tale has been told endlessly for weeks at the Mystic Marsh Tavern. What possibly could bring you to Astrenna? No matter. My name is Saffira. Apprentice to Great Sorceress Minerva. Is there anything I can help you with?"
