A Demon's Heart.

Chapter twenty-eight: The Murghal Archives

               The atmosphere of the Inn was good, the heat, the kind people, even the scents of a local herbalist preparing homebrews for the locals, some teas for the cold, others to double the body temperature in order to maintain warmth on themselves, and others were just beverages to drink all night long by getting drunk. The place was clean, despite it being a poor town, not as poor as other but... poor. The Innkeeper heard of the feat that the duo had and publicly called them: "The Connected". The name was set since they heard about how I and Emitt went down and protected them.... Simple enough and since the town was kind but in need, they offered the room services for half the price they always offered to anyone else.... So they decided to spend the night in the Inn...

               By the morning, some townsmen and guards went to the Inn looking for the duo, accompanied by men in black and white robes, who wanted to ask them for information on what happened.... The guards and the other folks gathered some offerings to the heroes for their cleaning of the burial mound, whilst, the men in the robes were waiting with a wagon outside the town. They offered a ride directly to Murghal, and in their wagon they carried lots of scrolls and books, most of them empty.... The duo were shocked for a second and asked who they were exactly. "Come with us to the outskirts of the town first, we also need our answers...." Said a young man who named himself Álgerus. This young man leaded the duo to the wagon, they looked about their surroundings and then showed their seal of:

- "The Murghal Archives." As Álgerus said.... "We heard of your curiosity about our book in the Archives, of course we don't share this kind of information with anyone, and less in a place like this.... But the reason I came here was because, like I said, heard about your concerns about the book and how you went here to slay the demon for that information. Aliana, I knew you would succeed, that's why I came here so you don't have to go all the way back to Murghal." He continued. "Also what I didn't expect was for you guys to see our Creator, and a Minister or Guardian! This is why I'm also here now, it was convenient, I need to know what happened here in full detail, about our god Esdor and who appeared to be a Guardian...."

- "Wait.... You KNEW? Are you a god?" Aliana said confused. "Oh hoho! No Aliana, I'm just a Scribe, sent to pick you up safely and into the Archives.... Tell you what, climb on here and continue this marvelous story!" He said as pointing the way. Aliana and Mirghreel looked and nodded in agreement. They both went inside the wagon and now set course to Murghal, once more.
