[Hello Luceti! Remember that bloodstained girl from a week ago? She's doing much better and currently sitting in a chair on the porch of House 1 with a blanket. There are bandages around her neck and a notepad with a pencil in her hand. She seems to like being able to look and smile at people instead of the impersonal text style so she has taken to writing with her notepad.

After a few minutes she scribbles something down in fancy, elegant scrawl:

With a small wave the Princess will turn off the feed.]

Well I am very fond of fairytales, of adventures and great deeds, I will admit! But also on the matters of how countries are run, I must learn all I can on that front. Really anything, poetry, historical works..all manners of books I am quite fond of reading!

[Thinking...]

I don't know how much from my own world can be found here, but there are quite a few compilations of fairytales worth seeking out.

[He gives a short list of titles that I am too braindead to come up with right now, and short descriptions next to each. Most are collections of regional stories; among the others are something about the history of the dragons, something about Earthmates, and some kind of highly archetypical coming-of-age story with a hero out to save the world. The last gets a slightly longer description than the rest. Ondorus likes that book.]

As for politics, anything concerning the history of Eucraft is worth a read. It has a rather unique system of government.

[A lone republic in a fantasyland of kingdoms.]

I am at the library right now, if you would like me to look for any of these.

Eucraft? Might I ask if you are from this world you speak of? And I would appreciate that very much!

Eucraft is one of several states on the continent of Adonea. I come from territory belonging to the Kingdom of Norad, a large and diverse country and one of the dominant political forces in Adonea.

It is my pleasure to be of help. I will only be a short while.

My! How fascinating! I'd like to hear of your world sometime.

Thank you again!

[...and a short while later:]

This is all that I could find.

[He uses the video to show two books:]

- A compilation of folk stories from the early human civilizations of Norad.
- The stories of the growth of the Noradic capital city - not entirely about politics, but perhaps relevant enough?

[There were also instructional books and scholarly texts, but those aren't casual reading material.]

[ it's enough for natalia. her face lights in a gentle smile. ]

Thank you. You've done plenty, is there anything I can do for you in return, sir?

[hmm...]

You could tell me of your world at a later time? Nothing is more enjoyable to me than stories of the faraway.

More immediately, if I could know where to bring these, I would like to deliver them.
