------ Libri watched him curiously. Some characters in the stories she read wouldn't've cared. Others would have helped him from the beginning. Some would kill him on the stop. Still others would ignore him. What should she do? Sometimes, Libri felt overwhelmed by all the characters, plots, and other things in all the stories she had read. During those times, she couldn't find her true self - just the personality of some random character that had randomly flown into her mind. This was one of those times. She didn't know what Legolibri herself would do, but she knew exactly what Arnold would do, or Celeste. But they weren't her. None of the characters she had read were her, obviously.
------ She absentmindedly reached for her book, unzipping the bag it was in. She flipped to a random page, her eyes still trained on the Cake Kuhna. After a second of thought, she dropped her gaze down to the page. "The old dragon lay wheezing and coughing on the ground. Thireenen shot him a last, withering glance before walking away." Libri closed the book. She knew what happened next. The old dragon turned out to be The Dragon in disguise. He cursed the human. Exactly what the curse was, she hadn't figured out yet. Was this a sign that she was suppose to go and help him? After reading so many stories with hidden or obvious signs, she couldn't help but believe that it was a sign.
------ She signed, tucked her book away, and walked over to him. Stopping near him, she took a deep breath before beginning, as if preparing herself for him. "I'm Legolibri, but call me Libri. I'm sorry for my behavior earlier. What's your name?"
