Julia and Auric gain some...knowledge...

Setting: Kuttlmor

Sub-setting: the exit

Julia: Good luck and come back safely, daddy!~

Silky: Retrieve that Grand Staff of Ultimate Well Being for me, hun!~

VoiceMan: Solstheim, here I come! *runs out, but a Black Book falls out of his pocket*

Julia: Daddy, wait! (He's already gone...) *picks up the Black Book* Hm...*goes to Whiterun*

Auric: *is chatting with a marketer*

Julia: Hey, Auric!~

Auric: Oh hi, Julia. *smiles, but sees the Black Book* W-What the...? Is that what I think it is?

Julia: Well, it's a book.

Auric: No, not just ANY book; that's one of Hermaeus Mora's ancient Black Books. Where did you find it?

Julia: Oh, daddy dropped it on his way to Solstheim.

Auric: Rgh...Too late to tell him now...

Julia: I wonder what this one says...*opens the book*

Auric: No, WAIT!!! *reaches for Julia, but tentacles grab him and her and pull them in*

Julia & Auric: *both reappear in Apocrypha, falling from the sky*

Auric: *lands and catches Julia*

Julia: Thanks!~ Now, where are we?

Auric: Apocrypha. The home of Lurkers, Seekers, and Hermaeus Mora himself.

Julia: Who?

Auric: Hermaeus Mora is the Daedra of knowledge and fate. Those who wander here tend to become lost...FOREVER.

Julia: F-Forever?! *gulps in fear* I'm so sorry for bringing us here!

Auric: *sighs* It's alright. We just need to get out of here. Luckily, you opened Filament And Filigree, the shortest of the series as it only has one chapter. Worst case scenario, Winds Of Change, the longest book.

Julia: *awkward chuckle* Close call.

Auric: *sees some Lurkers and Seekers about to attack* Incoming! Prepare for combat!

Julia: *puts on the Gauntz O' Murderizin'* Right!

Auric: *a Lurker spews tentacles at him* Augh! *grabs the tentacles and absorbs the life out of the Lurker, then tosses the corpse at the others*

Julia: *punches through a Seeker's head* HYAH!!! *throws the body aside*

Auric: *the Lurkers all grab him* AH! *absorbs the life from the bunch, gaining a massive amount of power* RAAAAAUGH!!!

Julia: Whoa...

Auric: *sees a large army of Lurkers* Now you shall feel the Aura's POWER!!! *tosses a gigantic ball of destruction that causes an enormous explosion and wipes out all enemies, but takes a lot of Auric's health*

Julia: *stares in amazement* Oh...my...gods...THAT WAS SO AWESOME!!!~

Auric: Rrrgh! *falls to his knees*

Julia: A-Are you alright?! *reaches out to him*

Auric: N-No. That attack took so much out of me...I needed to absorb those Lurkers' health first. Otherwise, it would've killed me.

Julia: Oh, smart thinking!~ *hugs him* Now let's get outta here!~

Auric: Right. *goes to the exit book* Which perk?

Julia: Hm...Secret of Protection!~

Auric: Very well. You'll take 1/2 damage for 30 seconds.

Julia: Okie-dokie!~

Julia & Auric: *both go back to Whiterun*

Julia: That was fun!~ *hugs Auric*

Auric: Fun? Honestly, that was rather horrific. Either way, we must wait for father to return.

Julia: He'll be going to Kuttlmor after a while, so we might as well meet him there!~

Auric: Very well. *starts walking with her to Kuttlmor*

THE END
