*after finally making his way to the library, The Beard has decided to do some research about his new home in Shallowford. He finds some books and scrolls on tactics against different creatures. Everything from undead to elementals, to goblins to lycanthropes.*
"Well, some good knowledge can be found in books... This should help with The Beards helping of the people of Shallowford."

Should the beard notice, there is a person at the other end of the library. Normaly a person in a library isnt such a big deal, after all, lots of people go to librarys. The biggest difference here is that it is plainly obvious that this man in fully armored. Beneath his black and blue tabbard are the unmistakable buldges of plate armor. I mean, who wears armor in a librar... oh wait, its walker.
Walker sighs as he rolls up another map and places it into the scroll shelf. He scans again to make shure he is in the section that will give him what he is looking for. After grabbing another scroll at random and quickly putting it back he gives up and looks around for the librarian.
He is so intent on looking for something, that he somehow completly fails his spot check and does not see the dwarf as he walks towards the librarian.

After asking a librarian for help, he leads walker back to the bery section he was looking in before, and grabs a scroll between two that walker had looked at and pulls it out and withput even looking at it, hands it to walker. Walker sighs and rolls his eyes as he sees this. This kind of thing aways happens to him.
After thanking the librarian, he takes it to the table and opens it up. A map of the old whitestone town is revealed before him. He pills out a piece of paper and begins transcribing the important details onto it. After about 10 minutes he is pleased with his work, making sure the scale was close. He blows on the page to dry the ink and puts it away. As he goes towards the exit to leave the library, walker catches a glimpse of the beard in his peripheral vision. After an internal debate, he changes course and approaches the beard.
"Hey beard, hows it going? Looking up anything in particular?" Walker says, eyeing the pile of books on a large number of topics on the table.

*The dwarf looks up after hearing a familair voice*
"AH, Sheriff Walker, good day!" The dwarf says.
"SSSHHHHH" the librarian shushes the dwarf.
*in a more whispering volume* "Greetings, just doing some research on the various threats to Shallowford. Trying to learn some strategies to aid in my assisting of the settlement."

"Oh," walker says, kinda happily" i just happen to have gathered a collection of useful things we should all know. I was planning on doing a training day in the tavern, but no one preregistered so i couldnt pay the deposit on the tavern rental." Walker shrugs "their loss. What interests you? Do you know the basics of elementals? Or..oo, i know what you should learn." Walker heads to a section all abour extrapliner creatures and finds the fey section. "Lets see.... how to friend a fey, the biology of fey, the fundamentals of conforming to the protolatetarianism totalitarianism dictatorship of the fey overlord, ah here we go," walker grabs a book from the shelf "how to kill a fey in its face" he heada back to the table and gives it to the dwarf. "Good reading, this one. It has pictures on the right pages, so a barbarian can read it too. You can read that one later though, want to learn the basics of elementals?

*The dwarf nods excitingly*
"That sounds quite informative I would love to learn all about elementals, as well as anything else you have to teach me, Sheriff"
*The dwarf gives a sideways glance at Walker*
"I was planning on attending your training session, but you took it down before I could commit to it. That is why I had to come all the way here."

"Oh, well you didnt pull a 'i plan to attend' tab from the bottom of the flyer so i had no way of knowing." Walker shrugs" anyways, elementals..." walker clears his throat.
"Elementals are beings composed of pure energy, so things that only affect living creatures will not work on them. This includes all alchemy and poisons, necromancy, and mind affects. They're usually immune to Waylay as well"

*The dwarf responds abruptly*
"I did take a tab, I have it right here."
*The dwarf digs into his beard for a few moments then pulls out a tab from his beard.*
"Right here, see, it says 'I plan on attending 'Chronicles of The Beard: Part II: The second sequel.' Oh... I must have grabbed the wrong tab. Oh well, too late now. How does healing affect elementals?"

Healing effects things with a metabolism, so it does nothing. Just as we are healed by healing and hurt by chaos, they are healed by their element, and hurt by chaos... everything is hurt by chaos. Another reason its illegial. But one thing to keep in mind is that hitting them with theor opposite element is twice as effective.

"I see, great knowledge you are sharing with me, Walker. I appreciate the time you are taking to aid with my scholarly research. What else should I study?"

Shivera quietly enters the library and starts to browse at the plethora of books available. She smirks when she finds what she was looking for. "The Laws of Akliceium" Perfect. She thought since the copy of the rules were recently taken from her, she could research them herself.She takes a quiet corner in the back of the library and starts reading.

Cygryl enters the Library smiling to Shivera as he sees her and begins looking for records on the Earth Coalition as well as records regarding the offering of title for any person in the south regarding the gaining of title for working the land.

Shivera looks up to see Cygryl smiling in her direction. She smiles back and gives a little wave. Shivera leaves the book on the table and scans for some new material. "Ah, starting a small business" Hmmm...

Walker is not seen in the library, as the events here were before the last market day. He must have left at some point
