But it isn't just the senior librarian. Inric lowers himself onto the chair, more memories coming to his mind. The Ossechian records had stated "The last Eldarin left in 598, and it is expected that the memory of their presence will last no more than 300 years," but he remembers very clearly the eager face of Hetherys Den Arvon, the Ossechian Elect, demanding, "I want to learn High One magic!" Magistra Colle had said "In our legends, our forefathers battled demons when they came to these islands," and he had thought that nothing to do with the Eldarin, because the Library records insisted "The team worked in an uninhabited area of what was estimated to be a mid-Sestrian period world, but no contact was made with the autochthenes." He had been wrong, and the records had been false.
