The book of love is long and boring
"This stuff? " Sam asked, already lost in this conversation. Did this man not know he was an Outlander? Or was he a Natural who didn't care much for the divide between the two groups? But he said he hailed from a city Sam had never heard of... "Where is Camden? Is that beyond the barrier? I must admit I haven't gone outside of it yet. I'm a little nervous." He laughed nervously, sure that Nate would now think him a coward.
The corner Nate was determinedly dragging him towards was dark and Sam's alarm bells began to go off. Was he about to be robbed? (If so, Nate would be sorely disappointed. All he had was a couple of scraps of paper and a bookmark). But even though his mind began to invent nightmares of knives at his throat and demands for his personal goods... he kept following. He was helpless to stop anything that might have given him a few more seconds with a man looking at him as if he were worth looking at.
"I'm Sam... what do you mean, break character? " He was mostly confused but Sam did worry that somehow Nate had seen beyond his mask in a few seconds, knew of the troubles on his mind behind his flat blue eyes. "I'm just... I'm here because I'm part of the Loreseeker's guild. I'm researching. "

No one can lift the damn thing
