Nikolai glanced up at the sound of his name, softening as he recognized Ophelia. "Oh hey. Long time no see, Ophelia." As he spoke, he scooted over to give them room to join him at his bench if they wished. He also nudged one of the books over so that they'd be able to see it. He wasn't sure if his fellow Ascended had mastered reading yet, but there were plenty of pictures of different constellations on the pages.
"I'm trying to compile the history and mythology of our stars. There's so many contradictions or just plain different versions that I'm trying to get them all written down into one place." Nikolai nodded towards a large book that was covered in his handwriting and diagrams. Many of the pages were still blank but he'd been hard at work trying to compile it all. Each section held a diagram of a single constellation and the stars that made it. Following that were the numerous stories and myths as well as their origins.
"Do you want to hear some of the stories?" He asked his sibling. "I could tell you two about the same constellation and you could see what I mean about needing to put it all in one book."
