Level 3
[1] I've been wondering about something.
The Tome of Wisdom is my most important possession. It describes the eight Virtues of the way of Paragon. Understanding those Virtues and mastering them leads to enlightenment. Anyone can follow the way, but there is a catch - the Tome is written in an unknown language. Only those who are unhappy with their current state of being, those who seek improvement and guidance, can understand what the words mean.
Anyone interested in trying to read the Tome of Wisdom? You could think of it as a challenge, or maybe a way to find something new about yourself.
[2] [Raynor is busy working on the damages to the Paragon, and while he's doing so, he's listening to another power metal song. But this time, he's doing so on headphones. As a side effect, he's humming it to himself.
If you can call that humming. Not only is it pretty loud, but it's absolutely wretched. His sense of rhythm is awful so it sounds nothing like the original song, and every other note is either missing or a false one. His attempts at lyrics sound like unholy screeching more than his normal voice, and individual words are almost impossible to decipher.
Stop this travesty?]

I know very little about Shadow Knights, I'm afraid. I only fought them twice, and they haven't appeared since. All I know is that they're filled with hate and normally immaterial, unless subject to loud sound waves. And I possess the ability to sense them, so they're probably related to the Tome somehow.

It is a good tactic though and being soft on an enemy is a recipe for disaster. *Sigh* Whatever, do as you will. Just keep what I said in mind.
(Letriel nods in understanding. She then smiles mischievously.)
Hmm. That is an unusual weakness. I suppose that means that you might have to sing in the future to defeat them. I'll try to remember to temporarily deafen myself then. And what is inside this Tome that you spoke of?
1/2
If I had to constantly sing at the Shadow Knights, my throat would give up in the middle of the fight. I play already recorded music at them instead. It's much more effective. And actually sounds good.

(Letriel gives an interested look at that.)
Really now. And you think it is linked to these Shadow Knights...I'd like to see it myself.

[No response, but even someone without Letriel's abilities might be able to tell what's up with Raynor. He's not sure can he trust her enough to give her his most prized possession.]
no subject
Listen, you and your Tome peaked my curiosity. I'm not going to harm your sanctified book. I'm just going to take a look at it to see what I can figure out from it.
(Letriel remains quite for a bit. She has a feeling she'll need more than that and looks thoughtful for a second. Letriel hesitates before speaking again.)
...What if I swore on one of my titles that I won't do anything you will regret to your Tome?
(There is a lot of weight to those words in Letriel's voice.)
no subject
You can read it, but only when I'm around. I need the Tome to serve as a power source for Paragon.
no subject
I have no intention to read it. I simply wish to see it so that I can study it. It must be quite the bit of technology if it is the source of your powers. Besides, I have a feeling I am far from 'worthy' of being allowed to read it.

I made something as advanced as Vice two thousand years ago. I was given knowledge of technology before I even had form. I should be able to decipher your Tome but it will take time. I will need any information you have about the Tome though. Where and when you found it, any theories as to how the power works, functions of the Tome outside being a power source, etc. I would also like to hear of you first encounter with these Shadow Knights.
no subject
I will think about it.
