Chapter 47 Discussion of New Information

"Kora, if you are a consciousness tied to the concept of writing do you have a physical form or body?" I ask curiously

"If you mean a material form that you can see and interact with yes, I can partially inhabit certain artifacts. If you mean a physical body that can grow or get hurt, then no. I am a part of a consciousness tied to a concept, not considered something living. A living being in this world is made of a physical body, soul energy, mind or consciousness, and will or spirit. I only have two of those four." Kora's voice resounds in my head

I leave the Vault of Hidden Truths and walk back towards the outer part of the Fyreed Archives. When I get back to the checkpoint for the Fyreed Order Mage first-class section I saw that Iris was still waiting there, she was reading some book that looked pretty new. Her aqua colored hair was tucked behind her ears and she had a slight smile on her usual apathetic face and her emerald eyes had just a hint of warmth, but I could also see a little bit of sadness, as if she was reading a happy memory but knowing that it is just that, only a memory. It made her look even more beautiful, and I was tempted to take a picture. "What are you reading?" I ask coming up to her

"Huh, what? Oh Viscount Magias, I didn't notice you there. Were you able to enter the Vault of Hidden Truths?" Iris asks, blushing slightly. She then quickly gained her composure, and her smile, blush, and warmth in her eyes disappeared as if they were never there in the first place.

I pull out my KORA card and show her "Yes, I was able to enter and have a lot of material to go through. Apparently, Gabrielle's prophecy was first given right before the Hero went to war with Devil Lord Kxhaoxix with slight variation." I tell her

"That is useful information, but a lot of information on the Hero, and Devil Lord Kxhaoxix has been sealed." Iris answers flatly

"I know, but I was able to essentially check out some materials related to the Hero, and Devil Lord Kxhaoxix. I do wonder though why we can remember Devil Lord Kxhaoxix but not the name of the Hero, or his party?" I tell Iris.

"Interesting. Would you mind telling me more about it later?" Iris asks curiously

"Haha, maybe. Though seeing you show any interest in this topic is pretty intriguing, why should I make any promise to tell you anything? If you need to know you will find out right?" I ask back teasingly

"Please, will you tell me what you learn? If not as the head mage of the Humana empire, how about as a fellow mage curious about history?" Iris asked again pleadingly

"How about as a friend or mentor?" I ask back smiling

"Umm... Fine." Iris hesitates before answering

"Alright, then as a friend please just call me Wats. Also, why do you hold so much interest in this topic? You didn't seem interested in the prophecy until I mentioned the Hero and Devil Lord Kxhaoxix?" I ask back curiously

"One of my family members was a part of the Hero's party, but all records of her following the war were erased. I know she was my mother's little sister, and that her name was Elowena but even my mother could not remember much else about her. I want to know more about the Hero and his party, and why no one really knows the names of him or his party." Iris answers back shyly

"I see, so it is personal," I confirm with Iris. When I see her nod I pull out my KORA card and prick my thumb to activate it. "Kora, search for Elowena in relation to the Hero," I say to the card

"500 results found, added to the requested material." Kora's voice sounds in my head

"How much is restricted to the Vault of Hidden Truths?" I ask
