Talio's Help

Elder Talio came accompanied by a group of one hundred Vertrans. He didn't bother supervising any of the construction work, considering it banal and routine, so he escorted Ronin, Pearl, and the rest of the Great Magical Society in the citadel to a private room in the tavern.

"Forgive us, Great Elder, for hosting you for the moment in our humble tavern, but your rooms will still take a while to be ready, so allow us to entertain you with the conversations this new race has about magic." Ikky introduced him to the rest of the group, who greeted the Great Elder very politely. He looked curiously at the various volumes on the table..."

"You've already translated this entire part of the book into your language. Wonderful." Tell me what progress you've made..." Each of them explained their studies and the topic we were analyzing. It was curious to discover what parts of the information contained in the Book were unknown to the Vertrans.
