Ask the knight, what is back there, and can you see it?

[lordnincompoop]

> Ask the knight what is back there.

The knight replies honestly,

"Books that are restricted."

You surmise that this person may not be the smartest of people.

[Andir]

Read Hidden Mages Book... maybe it's invisibility magic...

[Ottofar]

Ask the knight, will he mind if we go there.

[lordnincompoop]

> Read Hidden Mages Book... maybe it's invisibility magic...

You read the book about hidden mages. It mainly deals about how mages can be incospicuous and hidden amoung the populace, and the idea that some children are mages from birth. From it, hoever, you manage to piece together a glyph of invisibility.

> Ask the knight, will he mind if we go there.

"Hey, you're the angel, right? Yeah, I guess it would be okay."

The knight opens the door for you.

Inventory:

What do you do?

[Andir]

Enter the "forbidden room" (that you just gained access to) and look around.

[Acanthus117]

GET MAGIC GLYPHS!

MOAR POWER

You do so. The books that you see inside are rather different than others. You see seeral books on magic and many magical tomes piled up in here, as well as books on politically dangerous things and dangrous books. As you rifle through the stacks, some books in particular catch your eye:

> "N'Gasta! Kvata! Kvakis!"
> "Eating Children" by Anonymous
> A black leather grimoire, held shut with straps
> "Multidiciplinary Magic"
> "Glyph-based Necromancy"
> "The Beginner's Glyph Compendium"
> "The Glyph Compendium for The Advanced User"
> A badly burnt and tattered tome, with the remains of gilded lettering too damaged to read
> "Summoning"
> "The Complete List of Fetishes"
> "The Guide to Sin"
> "The Joys of Death"
> "Torture for Fun"

None of them have authors.

What do you do?

[Mephisto]

N'Gasta! It must be done.

[Ottofar]

Read the nameless ones, foreign language one, multidisciplinary magic, both glyph compendiums, the necromancy glyph book, and the summoning. Grab what we dont have time to read, and if someone asks about the missing books, they're too dangerous for a regular human, no offense, and we're going to burn them in the fireplace of our room.

[Armok]

JACKPOT!

Read multidisciplinary magic, glyph based necromancy, beginner and advanced glyph compendium, and the complete list of fetishes.

[lordnincompoop]

And by the way, do you guys think that Glyph of Heat should be separate from Glyph of Fire, or do you guys think that the Glyph of Fire should have the role of both?

[Ochita]

Quickly read both beginners and advanced glyths also take summoning, multi-disipline. Then we GET OUT as I think we might have stayed our hospitality.

looks at you suspiciously. He then leaves, saying that he has to tend to business. He glances back at you several times over his shoulder, though, and he has his hand on his sword, though very subtly.

  Did no one notice this?

The reason I think we got all of that steel armor is because we are in a monestary that belives that most magic is evil which would want us to use the sword. Am I right?

[Ochita]

Glyph of Heat should be separate from Glyph of Fire

I personally thnk that they should be different as making fire is different than using heat to boil water for example. The fire would go out, but heat would eventally make the water boil

[Andir]

I like the idea of cold fire... so I think separate.
