A traveling scholar returns home.

After a long absence Valtore, Knight of the Lost Tome, returns to his tower. He goes about cleaning and checking supplies. Has the desk scrubbed and sheets burnt. Then afterwards goes down to the Shrine of Dugmaren and sits in silent meditation for a while. Afterwards he goes about checking on his library to see if anything is missing.

If anyone needs help in research he is happy to offer his aid, otherwise most days he is either tending his hemp plants or relaxing smoking his pipe outside.

blue would wonder the tower him self nose stuck in his own book of areas needing details scouting while listening to the music. he nearly runs into val on the stairs at some point. ahh my old friend welcome back. you were gone quite awhile this time. been some where new? we will have to sit sometime and ye can tell me about it.

he begins marking in his book again crossing this one out adding to that one. looks at valtore you know a few areas i could scout possible? a place for a house and some walls around the area.

Upon hearing the flute music Valtore gets very mellow. He spends a long time just staring off into space thinking of the past. He gathers his pipe and best smoke weed before heading down the stairs. When Blue speaks to him he barely grunts and shrugs as he walks past. Then heads into the lower vaults. Past the iron bars and down the long hallway. He silently walks past the doors locked which still contain many strange things and hidden treasures until he reaches the last door on the right. The sound of water splashing from with in can even be heard through the door. He pauses briefly remembering the times he brought Helen here or the nights he and Silphie would visit. Then after a bit he goes in and sits on the bench watching the butterflies as he slowly smokes his way into oblivion.
