Even those books he does find on the old mythical creatures are scarecly populated. Seems they were able to prove ithem real, but never learn much about them. The sketches of them are even pretty basic.

Quill pieced together some of what he learned in his months in Fluttershy's employ and what he had already learned, with the information from the books to piece them together. If nothing else he was learning a few more illusions he could create. He practiced them in miniature, the pain in his horn now just a part of magic to him. he started to wonder if Bonbon had learned anything about them that would help and his thoughts turned to her. The illusion turning to Bonbon. he looked a her wistfully wondering what she was doing now. Had Wind shier made contact yet? These questions burned even more than his horn. he wanted some insight. Something he could use to give himself some form of peace and faith in the hot headed dragon. But there was no book that would have any story of his abilities, no scroll giving his credentials. he had nothing to read. But he did have some one he could ask. He went strait away to the closet where Leatherbound worked. "Leatherbound. I'm sorry to bother you again so soon," he was not sure how long he had been reading about animals long sense dead. "But the reason I am waiting here is because your brother Windshier is taking my place in Fluttershy's monster Sanctuary in a rescue mission of my mate, and a kidnapping mission of my Tranquil brother. I don't mean to cast insult to your family but I am scared to madness that he will fail or be found out. Can you give me any assurance to his abilities in this task, or some form of reassurance that I will see them again. I don't even have the comfort of my Ankheg, Click. She will not come to this place because she senses dragons and has been trained to avoid you." He pleaded on his knees as if he were beseeching Sol herself.

Leatherbound silently stands before heading to a shelf in his closet, a personal collection. He digs through them before finding one and taking it out. The pages rustle as he searches He places the book on the table, open to a page, before returning to his task. His quill scratches on a blank page as he writes.

It's a journal.


Entry one: Windshear and Hope training again. Hope still learning, still idolizes her brother. I sit in the corner, observing. Winshear treats her delicately, but firmly. She learns quickly

the next entry is a few days later.

Entry two: Windshear returns exhausted again stinking of sulphur and ash. Must have been training again. Against dad's wishes again. Must ask him about improving my flame.

the next entry is about a week later.

Entry three: Training progressing. Windshear years ahead of me. Impressive really. I spend too much time in the library. Should get out more.

Quill was very interested in the first entry. It showed that despite being very much his father's son, Windshier was a very caring and compassionate dragon when it struck him to be. The second told him that he could be defiant even of the intimidating Spike, and all three told of his dedication. "You know. I think he makes a better me than I do." Quill chuckles as he reads the entries again.

Quill nods and returns to the shelves. He takes inventory of the books there at the same time he tries to find any books on magic at all.

Quill isn't even halfway through the books when Leatherbound aproaches. He is holding a wooden sign that all Quill can read is "ed" and below it "Ght"

"E-D G-H-T? I'm sorry I don't follow."

Quill reaches for the sign as if to ask if he is supposed to take it.

"Oh yes of course. Thank you for your time Leatherbound I'll probably be in here a lot when Mark doesn't have anything for us to do."

Quill gives a bow, not wanting to take up too much time and make Leatherbound wait he decided not to check out a book tonight sense he had already read the ones he had pulled before and he hadn't made a selection of a new one now.

"I may be back tomorrow to borrow a book. But until then I bid you good night."

He heads out the door making sure he had his map, just in case.

Leatherbound follows him out, hanging the sign on the door and heading right.

Quill checks his map quickly to see if he is supposed to go the same way or not.

The path back to his room is the other direction. Though quill would think to mark this spot on his map.

Quill double checks his map to make sure he had marked the Library. It was a place to go to occupy his time and a place Bonbon would really want to see.

"I'll see you later Leatherbound"

He waves to the dragon and smiles warmly. he turns to head home. but having spent the better part of the day there he had skipped lunch. His stomach rumbled loudly in his ears and he decided to brave the kitchen and see if they had any pony food cooking for dinner before retiring for the night.

The kitchens are quiet, only a few minotaur are cleaning up, and a single, pink dragon hops around, looking at what they are doing. A single pot, smaller than the rest broils in the back.

"Hope." Quill calls, momentarily forgetting his hunger at the sight of what he knows will be a very friendly face. He for once was rather tired of only hearing his own voice and just knew the baby dragon would be talkative. He trotted in and went to stand next to her.

She meets him halfway, jumping up to hug his neck. "Hi quill! how are you? Are you here for a snack too?"

He wraps a hoof around her to hug her back. "Yes I am Hope. I spent all day with Leatherbound and skipped lunch. Now i'm very hungry." He admitted as he lowered his neck so her feet were on the ground again. "And what have you been up to all day my little dragon."
