Four; [voice/action for Great Library]

[argyria]

[Some of you may recognize this voice, and some of you may not. Ramirez didn't often lend himself to actually speaking to people unless the circumstances were particularly dire. Or annoying.

But chances are, even if you know what he sounds like, you are still not quite going to recognize the voice that comes through the woodwork to this bracelet. The voice is the same, but the tone is completely different; there's a sort of warmth to it he never had before, a strange sort of soft-spoken tenderness that would put any young child at ease.

It's the sort of voice you might expect from a very kind older brother.]

I've had access to a multitude of books, but it was never anything of this magnitude. [There's something in his voice that's filled with awe, a very quiet and vibrant sort of joy.]

Upper City had several libraries of note, but even those were paltry compared to this. The vast scope and variation of your geographic charts is something that cannot be duplicated in one area.

[It's like the adult male version of sounding like a kid in a candy store. Really. You can bet he has several books laid open in front on the table next to him. After the intial gushing over this library though, he seems to catch himself.]

But I beg your pardon. From what I gather, it sounds as though it's possible I might be here a while.

It's not the most ideal of circumstances, but...[His voice trails off into an uncomfortable, thoughtful silence.]

...It sounds as though I have little choice but to assist this world in its time of need. I assure you, I will do what's needed.

My name is Ramirez; it's a pleasure to meet you.

((ooc: Unfortunately, Ramirez has found himself subject to the whims of the gods, possibly in a last-ditch attempt to make him socialize more without pissing everyone off. He has mentally regressed 7 years, from 24 to 17. And as you can tell from this post, the difference in demeanor from those seven years is a very, very big one.

Replies will be coming from aetos.))

[Eyes visits the library often enough and can understand the other man's excitement to a degree, though he had to wonder what was making him want to be so cooperative with the goal the gods had bestowed upon them.]

You could begin by sharing what it is you have read thus far in the vast collection you are surrounded by.

[It comes with the job description of being an extreme follower and very, very eager to please.]

Unfortunately, I've only recently found my way here so I have yet to devote my attentions completely.

The collection of atlases is nothing short of astounding, however.

They are, even if most of the information is of no use to us in the end. [Though to be more accurate, there have been no instances yet where it would be useful.]

You imply that your access to such knowledge was limited where you are from?
