there's light at the edge of the darkness
As Oliver recounted what he remembered based off what the Launceleyn had said, he nodded along, storing away the bits of information that seemed useful. When the other man thanked Loren, he smiled briefly, a ghost of warmth washing over him for a short moment. ”You’re welcome. And I’m glad you remembered something already.” That hadn’t been too difficult: if they had enough time, they might be able to unravel the entirely of the newcomer’s lost memories. However, one thing that was in short supply around here was time.
Oliver asked he could help, which was kind. However, the summoner shook his head. ”You just focus on learning about Caido and getting situated. On that note, there’s a library on the first floor. It has some useful volumes, including one on LongNight. That one’s on the desk.” Presumably the Launceleyn should’ve returned it to the Atheneum, but he’d been busy with other tasks and it kept slipping his mind. ”In the meantime, if you need me for anything at all, I’ll probably be in the kitchen, unless I'm out.” Running through the entirety of their conversation in his mind he remembered something they’d discussed briefly. ”There are some spare clothes in the storage closet. It’s around the corner, third door on the left. Should be unlocked.” Hopefully that would be all, but Loren wouldn’t count on it. ”Any questions?” The newcomer probably had quite a few.
