“He what?”

It had taken an hour, but I had finally found Fiona in the very same place I had started: the library. There was no telling how many places I had missed her before she went there.

“Look,” I said, showing her the notes. “I haven’t read it all, but from everything I’ve seen so far, and from what Isaru has told me, it all points to him thinking that the Prophecy is in Hyperborea.”

“Okay,” Fiona said, “but why would he go on his own? He’ll get himself killed!”

“Maybe he’s figured out a way to get there safely.”

“How?” Fiona asked. “No one has returned from Hyperborea alive since the day the city was destroyed.”

“Maybe we can learn more from his notes,” I said.

Fiona dropped everything she was doing to help out. We read quietly for an hour or so. A lot of the notes had nothing whatsoever do to with Isaru’s leaving, but dealt in extreme detail on the workings of the city. Where had Isaru found all this stuff?

“We have to take this to Isandru,” Fiona said.

“If he finds out Isaru’s done this…”

“He’ll find out, anyway,” Fiona said. “Half the Sanctum must know he’s missing already. What they won’t know is where he’s truly gone.”

All I could wonder was what in the world would possess Isaru to do this. Even if he knew for a fact that the Prophecy could be found in Hyperborea, why go on his own?

“That he would risk his life for this demonstrates he truly believes it’s there,” Fiona said.

“He kept this hidden from us all the while,” I said. “Even yesterday with Isandru, he seemed to be going along with the Red Bastion.”

“Isandru must be told,” Fiona said. “This goes beyond the fact that Isaru will be severely disciplined. His life is in danger. And with dragons about in the immediate area, he might not even live long enough to survive the day.”
