>>6089150Of course, if nobody burns it before it begins to yield benefits it shall pay off.
>>6089159>>6089327Yes indeed, you promised this if I remember well.
>>6089349>>6089572You said a few short words to the workers, thanking them for their service. You then congratulated Oldfossil.
-Your skills in architecture amaze me dear Oldfossil, and your planning. In truth I wonder if there is something that you can not do !
The old man chuckled and simply stated that.
-I try to serve. What a lord wants a good steward does.
You smiled kindly to the old man. He was really precious. You patted him in the back and decided to thank the brave man with a feast. It was a merry affair between everyone and you even tried to listen to the intellectual conversations between Becky, Brother Louis and Oldfossil about mathematics, without understanding anything. And it was pleasant since Rose, naughty as she was was caressing your ankle with her foot under the table and looked at you innocently like the very proper lady that she was, it was terryfying, she probably had too much wine. If it made her so happy you did not want to be alone in this lack of drink. You ordered more wine and remembered that you had to ask about the tomb. So you asked him.
-Dear Oldfossil, we were at the tomb of the forgotten queen yesterday, Rose and I, and we saw a most strange thing, one of the pannels had disappeared by magic, one of the scenes with the engravings...
Oldfossil seemed surprised and Rose added.
-Yes, and there were tablets written on ancient runes, on the tomb and at other places and we could not traduce them, could you, perhaps come in spring to see it.
Oldfossil nodded, then his eyes opened, as if he was struck with an illumination. His mouth became agape and he told.
-Missing pannels ! Rollarion ! Rollarion wrote about it in his notes !
The notes of the old Court Mage that he had been studying. You looked at Oldfossil and he explained.
-I need to... Remember exactly what it was, it was rather short, and in the middle of a paragraph...
Mmmmh interesting, since it was late and you wanted the old man to keep his eyes you reassured him. You remembered that the court mage had visited the tomb twice, everything made sense.
-Do not worry, we will talk about it tomorrow.
And it was done, after training in the courtyard you came to your steward's quarters and Oldfossil had the document, a paper written in the same runes. He told.
-Unfortunately, as always with the writings of Rollarion McFumbles there is some genius idea, and then many nonsense. Here look, he tells that those missing pannels were erased by magic, there was a pannel, a wall and columns on another wall, he says that it was to erase traces of previous religions during the "shattering of gods" ordered by powerful archmages.
