He is quite thin and has rather spindly limbs that are nevertheless quite agile. Despite his youth, he wears the short robes of a scholar over his breeches and introduces himself as a tutor for hire. He prefers scarlet cloth for his robes and more pedestrian materials for his trousers. said, “I do not believe you to be a great fool. If anyone here is a fool, it is me. Though I may be a fool in many aspects, I am not feeble minded and know what I have experienced. I came to this place in the year 1001, as commonly reckoned in our time, and you still have not told us what year it is hear and now, though by your statements I gather is sometime well before 1001.
“I do not know why this place was abandoned, and will not offer you an fiction as to why that might be the case. Among our number is an agent of the house, currently recovering from his ordeal. When he can speak, you will here what he has to say, but he was unaware of this place.
“As for proof, you can see this volume I hold. You may recognize the handwriting; I do not. I've no idea when this book was written. I scarcely picked it up more than an hour ago. If you have a pen, I am happy to write something so that you can see what my script looks like. 'Tis not my handwriting and you may recognize the maker. The only alternative would be for you to assume that I, in addition to be a mage as you claim, have also developed talents as a master forger. Oh and for the purpose of playing this joke, I had entire run of coins minted. Now does that seem logical? And, more to the point, if I were a mage here on some vile errand - why on earth would I come up here and speak to you and seek out your guidance? How could that possibly advance any sort of malevolent agenda?
“As I said, I'll confess to being a fool on occasion, but I am not a lack-wit. I realize how precarious our position might be. If we have moved in time, like I fear, then anything we do here could have grave consequences in the future, no? That is why I came to you, rather than meddling about with the chambers below. We needed someone who understood these matters to help prevent any mishaps.
“Furthermore, we have clearly not arrived in this chamber by sneaking past the guards. We came from below. One of our recovering number is still down there if you want to look down the passage. And would it not have been obvious if we had opened the trapdoor from this side? There is a complex mechanism on one end, and a simple latch upon the other. No, we have come from below, not anywhere else.
“We have not come hear to create an orb, and frankly I have no idea what orb you might be talking about. I've seen the pillar below, but no orb or the like. And I hardly look like I am prepared to craft something, seeing as I have no tools or other equipment.
“And as for how the chamber below functions, as I tried to explain but perhaps failed, whatever power lays within was already running when we approached it and was affecting the whole area for miles around. How it was triggered I do not know, but it was running. We had hoped to turn it off. I am not sure we succeeded in doing that.
“The era we come from is nigh upon the Zioth. We had guessed that it was meant to take the city beyond the date of the Zioth, but you know far more about affairs than we do. I am not sure how and why it is we are here now, and not after the end of days, but that is what I was hoping to discuss with you sir.”

As before, the priest paused, considering his words carefully before he spoke. It seemed to be a habit of his. “You ramble on a great deal, and yet there is so little substance. You claim that this argument and that makes it impossible that you are of the magi, and yet I put nothing past them. The only mystery to me, and thus the only element in your favor, is that book.
