Jigano's mouse problem had been the last of his worries as well, and he had selected a half dozen books and was hunting for more when the Ascended pair came to present their picks. His eyes lit up at the miniature library they were assembling; a wide variety and good selection for those trapped indoors for a week, and plenty to go around. "Thank you both," he said gravely, even giving a nod of gratitude to Wessex. "I appreciate your time today for this. I had hoped--" he cut off, looking around with a slight furrow of his brow. "Has anyone seen Deimos recently?"
Deimos controlled his fire well enough to not set the nearby decomposing books alight, at least, but there was no obvious reason why the book - if book it really was - sat there upright and unconcerned with sticks that tried to push it forward or side to side when so many of its brethren had fallen to time or paper wasp depredations.
Congratulations Nate and Wessex! You've completed your tasks in the PQ. You can go help Deimos if you want, or head out with full credit.
Deimos has not yet found a single mystery book to share for LongNight.
