"You may call me Inric," Inric says. "I came in search of a book. I am alone, except for Copper." He gestures to the bookwyrm on his lap.
"You're looking for a book? One in Milburh?" Aldus sounds confused, as well he might.
"That is my understanding."
"Hmm. None of that helps very much. You're not the only person to have been attacked recently. But nothing you have said casts any light on the situation."
"I regret that I cannot help you," Inric says. "If I remember more, I will tell you. I am in your debt."
