A quest for the breath of a Flower

Who: Loki of Asgard and YOU!
What: Loki has been set a scavenger hunt quest by the Sphinx.
Where: Around Anastara
When: Before he goes on a pub-crawl with Rosh. Because y'all don't need a hungover God of Mischief doing adventures, funny as that is.
Warnings: Potential language? Definite shenanigans.



Well, Loki knew the answer to the riddle. Finding an example of it would be more difficult. Was there a flower on Anastara that was known as "name" Breath? Could he find Baby's breath here? Loki honestly wasn't sure, but he was going to do it anyways.

As much as he was loathe to, Loki also knew he'd need people more familiar with Anastara than him to try and help. So, since people here seemed to actually be willing to work with him, he'll seek out those who had been friendly for aid.

Diatu Library
There was still so much to learn, but Loki had a more specific purpose this time than just browsing. First stop would be the school Library, to see if there was any lore about flora that had 'breath' in it's proper name or folk name. Currently he's up on a ladder, tall form stretched up and looking through more obscure flora taxonomies and herbiaries.

Dragonfire Library
Whatever he couldn't find in the school Library, he was sure he'd find leads in the Dragonfire Library. Even if he didn't, Loki'd planned on checking out the Dragonfire Library anyways. He appreciated Isabel's warning; this visit he planned to be on the up and up, given his goal. But it wouldn't hurt to do some scouting and learn more about the library while he was there...

"The Backwater" Tavern
The last place, beyond just walking around to explore the green areas of the island, that Loki went to was "The Backwater" tavern in the third ring. Because the 'common' folk as it were, often knew just as much about folk medicine and names as anyone else. If there was a flower or herb with 'breath' in its name or lore, he was hoping for a lead here.

While there, he's not opposed to joining in some singing and drinking. Loki has a fine enough voice, and while not letting himself get drunk yet, he'll certainly accept a drink or three.

"I'm use to schools since I have been at them for a while, but this one is completely different. Also magic is not something that existed much back home." It did exist but only a certain kind it seemed.

Yugi had soon pulled out a couple more books and added them to the pile.

"I think that might be it on the lower shelves."

"Not really. Like it sort of exists, but only in certain things." Like some magical items that were created in a not very nice way. Though that was something Yugi still didn't actually know.

"SO it's more a it's not common."

"Objects for the most part. Seven of them to be exact. Each have a different ability. But that is the only actual magic in the world that I know of. Though they no longer are a thing. So really we don't have anything anymore." So that was that pretty much.
