Snippet #2735938

Although Acara had wanted the Elder Scrolls most of all, he sensed something about these Black Books...something similar to the Elder Scrolls. Was the entity that created them trying to mimic it in some form, perhaps instead of the knowledge flowing into the reader, the reader flowed into the knowledge? He could vaguely sense it, but Ruuka had seen interest in him and gave Acara power, including the power of Comprehension. As such, even if it was awkward from his personality, he could communicate with others, even if they came from other worlds, time periods, interdimensional rifts, and what not.

As for the other books, some of them seemed to produce tentacles that wanted to latch onto Spike, as if begging her not to leave them alone with this boy, or rather, any form of connection to Ruuka that existed. Indeed, one could possibly sense from them a vague form of fear...an indication that Spike would have the easiest chance to pick up on that whoever put that mark on Acara, it was someone so far above Herma Mora that it made the Daedric Lord afraid. It made that Herma Mora afraid.

"Alright then. I was hoping for one, but I guess that's fine. It looks like these things might have been made to imitate Elder Scrolls at the very least".

And when they mentioned Time Displacement, Acara actually knew something about that.

"Well, putting aside the possibility my wormhole might have latched onto you during some Chrono event and pulled you out of the normal timeline, different realms and dimensions often have time flow differently from each other, and in truth, the gravity of the planet can also effect how time flows and passes. But if I said anymore then that, it would be mere speculation and theory. Instead, how about I show you around the city? Right now, we are in a place of education, learning, and study called Astrius Academy. This is one of the various Lab Buildings in the Labs District of the Academy, where students can perform experiments in a secure and safe environment...most of the time".

Acara picked up his coat and bag and put them both on, but then thought of something.

"Ah, uhhh....you should probably avoid getting into any trouble before registering with immigration. Since you did not come through one of the natural warp portal stations, or through a registered wormhole, or through one of the spaceports, Stardocks, and the like, it is possible..."

Acara finally undid the lock to the laboratory door, and not even a second later, the door zipped open and several young students between elementary and high school age, with a few in college and one teacher, rushed into the room. This also caused Acara to get knocked to the floor.

"We detected a temporal space distortion followed by an increase in life forms! Is everyone okay? Did another Interdimensional Horror invade?! Second Prince Acara, why does your door have over the top security and why did you not open it immed...Second Prince! What is wrong!? Did these people do this to you?!"

"...no boss, that was you actually, you rushed in a little overzealous..."

"Oh...sorry! But, uhhh....who are these people?"
