*walks in* Hello? Baracus?

Silent as night, the Owlin appears behind the Drow. Entirely out of nowhere. “I was beginning to think you’d not be paying me a visit.”He hoots. Adjusting his spectacles. “I would have helped you with the Dwarf, but you seemed to have everything under control. Besides, I needed to sort some books.” He then teleports over to his previous spot: a table littered with books, scrolls and writing tools.

You were watching me? *she says. her inflection almost like stating a fact rather than asking a question*

“Yes; from a nearby cedar tree that I like. I was napping. But awoke to the two of you.” He relocated back to being beside her in a blink. “So tell me, what are you here for?”

I was told that you overlook all who join the guild?

His head turns to face her, even as he walks away to put some books back on a shelf. “I do. I see it as a my duty to Solidus. He teaches me, and filter those who come here.” More books levitate over and sort themselves. With a neat silent flap, the owl flies up on top of the bookcase. “I don’t stop anyone from joining. Only let them know that those of us who can, are watching them. Listening to their minds.”

So you don't want to study me

The Owlin chuckles with mirth. Waving his hand a large, intricately decorated book appears before Sylvia. Several pages flip. Revealing a half finished portrait of her likeness. “I’ve already started.”

Oh...Impressive actually

“Sketching is one of my favourite pass times. It aids in gathering information on the visitors to our guild. The ones who stay anyway.” Words write themselves on the empty page next to the portrait. Recording their conversation. “Start with wherever you like. We will cover your entire life until now. Or if you wish, we can do this in sessions.”

Well there's not much to me. I grew up in my Drow clan in The Underdark. It's very small. Mainly just my family which consists of my parents and grandparents on both sides, and their friends. I'm rather sheltered because of this, so I never really socialized with anyone outside of my family much. I always had a connection to the moon, and i get msgic from it! But once I became 210, I decided to come to the surface to make something of myself. And to discover the full potential of my magic.

The book documents, and its master hums in thought. “You will certainly find progress here. I did as well. Time itself is one of my studies. If I don’t have something you need here, I can acquire it. Or you can approach Solidus or Araavos. Someone here almost always has what someone else needs. Situations varying.” Stretching his wings Baracus glides down from his perch. Slipping his hands into his sleeves in a safely manner. “I will admit, I enjoy watching our new members grow. Dark and Light paths equally.”

Araavos...You know some girls were talking about him before

“You will meet him eventually. A great many of the people you meet here are connected to him and bis brother in one way or another.”

The book shuts, with a thud. Disappearing into thin air. “For now, rest well. We’ll continue soon. Goodnight.” He teleports away. Likely to his room.
