I cannot believe this tome has revealed my secret identity. It was a secret!

A dragon? Where?? 🛡️🗡️

...how peculiar. I hope you are not animated with ~blood magic~.

(Takes the slip of paper and gently pokes the candlehop.)

(Disgusted noise.) Quite telling that the question must be asked.

Cole,

I would very much enjoy moving forward with the book club. I have had the great fortune of growing my collection including many of the serials I have been told are among Bellara's favorites. I would be happy to assist in finding copies for your compatriots.

Respectfully,
Cassandra Pentaghast
