"Then you'll come with us to the library, then?"Lyla asks, taking a step closer to Crispin and Vivien. "It's best we keep our heads low after recent events... and it'll be a safe place for most of us. Gangs don't dare go near."

It’s getting late in the afternoon with the hustle and bustle of the city life in Port Damali, Lyla you lead your companions to the “The Crescents Ward” where the Cobalt Library resides at which is a very tall and beautiful buildings as you see one of Lyla’s other colleague manning their own little store as one of them waving at you Lyla. You see this human girl with long blonde hair and big nerdy glasses as she pushes up.
“H-hey Lyla come over here! The Cobalt Soul is giving away books to the children here! Isn’t it neat?” She exclaimed as she shows some of the book she have at hand, mostly they are children books. “We’re currently doing a donation drive and earning gold to open up a new branch of the Cobalt Soul!” She smiles and looks at the rest of the group. “Oh my name is Susannah and it’s a pleasure to meet one of Lyla’s friends!”
(The children book cost: 1 Silver each)
As you were interacting with Lyla’s colleague, Xan’drila you notice a figure wearing a dark cloak observing afar around the dark corners of the street, fiddling with their single golden coin as they are waiting for something or someone.
Lyla tenses as she hears her name, preparing herself for the worst. But it was just Susannah, causing her to relax. "What a good idea. How's it been going so far?" She asks as she begins to dig around to find her coinpurse. Whether or not anyone else decides to donate, she takes out a gold coin and hands it to her colleague.

A'ro just follows silently still worried about everything that transpired. He just begins to loose himself into his head as they all walk, snapping out of it when the woman mentions the donation drive. He just smiles as he pulls out five gold and hands it to her "Here for the donation drive."
Vivien would give 3gp toward the donation effort. She always idealy wished to have a total ending in 5 or 0. "The greatest source of inspiration is the mind of a child, id be happy to contribute."
(Does Vivien recognize Susannah if Vivien herself is a Scholar and would at times visit the library?)
Crispin just observes and tags along, waiting to see what this library stuff is all about. He rolls his eyes at the whole "giving books to children" thing but, for once, actually keeps his mouth shut.
“Oh pretty good so far I guess? Pretty surprising so far, knowing the Clovis Cord can be a little…” Susannah replied not trying to bad mouth the Clovis Cord but they have some issues. “Let just say Clovis Concord isn’t perfect isn’t that right?” She looks at you guys as she gave the children books for who donate it.
“Thank you for the donation everyone, the knowing mistress will bless you for your kindess!” She Smiles at every one of you. “Also Lyla, I saw Lieseral is running a quick errand, so she will be a bit late with the meeting that she mentions, in the mean time she setup a guest room for every one of you and your special guest is currently doing their own stuff!”
(Yes you do recognize Susannah, she tends to be busy most of the time and seen a lot of faces in the library)
"Yes correct!" Susannah nods at you Vivien then shift her attention towards Lyla. "Anyway... I will be here if you need me, well I don't normally do much except rearranging books!" She gives a soft chuckle as she attends to another customers.
Crispin takes a sip from the bottle he swiped from the bar before leaving and asks "Why are we here again? There books about raising islands up out of the water?"
"Thank you Susannah." Vivien would smile and nod as she heads toward the room.
As they walk she'd address Crispin. "To share what happened to Palma Flora with Lyla's superiors. And while we're here figure out what the nine hells your deal is while we have privacy for now."
"My deal?" Crispin says, a tone of surprise and interest laced through his words. "Well now, that shall be interesting to figure out! And what, in the nine hells, have I done to pique so much interest?"
"Good luck." Lyla says to Susannah before she returns to her work. She seems quite relaxed now that she made it... well, not home, but to a safe place. She rubs her chin at Crispin's comment. "Hm, seeing if something similar happened before slipped my mind. Good idea. But Vivien's right, we're here to report what we saw to those that run the library. Perhaps not to the High Curator themself but... we'll be taken more seriously here. Afterwards there will be plenty of time to research, to which you all are invited to if you so wish."
Of course someone who spent most of their days in a library would be long winded about that sort of thing. But studying their gun toting companion's character once more was not on the list. "I think she means... well, we're all fairly new to each other's company. And you two might have gotten off on the wrong foot."

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
After giving 1 good to the donation effort Xan’drila whispers to A’ro “look at that one… cloaked figure over ther don’t turn now.. wait until I go check. Don’t want any more headhunters “
Then tried to sneak off and round towards the figure without being seen by it, mostly using the crowd to mask her movements.
Xan’drila as you sneaks off into the crowd to see this cloaked figure, the cloak figure haven’t notice your presences as they eyed on Crispin. Assuming that they’re one of those headhunters, you notice that this cloaked figure have a hand crossbow.

As you walk inside the huge building and one of the friendly scholars guides everyone to the guest room. The room is luxurious fit for a wizard’s study, this room is mostly used for special guest of the Cobalt Soul but for now it hosts for those two people.
You see the pregnant noble half-elf woman currently sleeping on the comfortable sofa, feeling exhausted from the ship ride besides it you see Aurillio reading “Tusk Love” from what the looks of it, he doesn’t really understand the context of it and turns his direction towards Vivien. “Oh hey Lady Vivien, I want to ask what kind of strange book is this and why this Genevieve character feeling helpless even though she is capable of doing mundane task!” Aurillio replied, showing the book towards her and reads the part that could make a grown man blush, obviously he doesn't know anything about this topic.
Vivien just looks to Aurillo and listens intently as he reads the passage. Truthfully, Vivien did enjoy romance novels, though Tusk Love seemed a bit more of the... smutty side of things. "Well..." She'd begin. "...sometimes it's good at times to let go and not be in control of things every now and then. In her case, she is experiencing some good feelings so it's even more good on her part." She smiles to the young man before looking to Crispin. Scanning the room, she'd make sure no one had view of her torso.
She'd produce the wanted poster and unravel it slightly so it wasn't easily seen before stowing it away, showing Crispin what she knows. "I know what you've done in Palma Flora, and that was highly noble of you. That act keeps me from reporting you to authorities." She would address the poster. "It doesn't however make up for the fact you were caught in a conspiracy to rob my family, with you trying to pass-the-buck to avoid trouble. Who are you?" She'd ask, standing tall and arms crossed under her chest as she examined the pirate.
"Caught in a conspiracy, was I? Princess, I don't even know you or your family. As for who I am..." Crispin shrugs and towards the door. "Seems you have already decided that for yourself."
Crispin exits the room and then the library unless violently prevented.

"Hands, princess!" Crispin snarls. "The inspector dismissed us... It best we be on our way."
"Then you'll come with us to the library, then?" Lyla asks, taking a step closer to Crispin and Vivien. "It's best we keep our heads low after recent events... and it'll be a safe place for most of us. Gangs don't dare go near."

As he pulls from her grip, which isn't that hard, she'd glare daggers at him. "...You're explaining at the library." She'd retort, holding her ground.
"To the library then... " says Xan'drila.
As they walk towards it she tries to be the last one, keeping an eye in case they had been followed.
