Lemon sighs "Tis sad how a man driven to greatness has fallen so far into pettiness."
He shakes his head in a superior manner, as if discussing a naughty boy.
Earevel is able to scratch out the rune with a little bit of agical help from Annilda. Opening the bag proves it to be a bag of holding, witht he wizard's spellbook and components pouch as well as an older bok that looks like an exact replica of the one you saw in the library yesterday. Pulling it out causes the gnome in question to give a gleeful hoot and rush over. "This MUST be the real one! It looks just like the fake! Here, here let me take a look."
She paws through the boook verifying it's authenticity, while the guards clamp metal chains on the men. Eiab explains the slight antimagic effect that's been enchanted into them. The man then feeds the apprentice and arclord a potion to revive them before trying to explain to the men their rights and what they can and can't do. After Zanhanal stuffs a gag back into Prakhavu's curse-spewing mouth, Eiab continues, before hauling them away. "Thank-you for tracking these two down! They will certianly be tried by the Arclord council who doesn't look kindly on going as far as murder... especially when teh accused can't even defend themselves in a magic fight!" He smiles and drags off Prakhavu with wave.
With a flurry of jangles Sebnet jumps up and nods. "Definitely the real thing! Thank so much for your hard work! Teh party is still going on and I swear I heard a mercantane bragging about helping a group of Pathfinders with an investigation. But before you go, any suggestions as to what to do with the Collected Directives? Kefanes didn't have any family and Prakhavu won't be able to keep them."

Sebnet gives a snort and waves away the idea of them being a target. "That idea certainly has merit, and don't worry about it making us 'a target,' they'd have to be insane to try attacking us. Anyways, we're known for our open library policy."
"Getting killed for a single book? Hmpf." Annilda scoffs. "Let anyone who wishes to read it, read it."
"Agreed!" Seo-yeon smiles broadly. "Knowledge should be shared. If all can read it, there is no need for murder attempts or theft."
Sebnet gives a nod. [b]"Alright then, to the Nexus House's public library it goes! Thank-you again for all the hard work! Now go and enjoy yourselves at the party. I'm sure rumor has spread by now and you'll find no end of people wanting to talk with you!
