Lacie stopped midwalk and turned around to look at the stranger that suddenly offered her food. Her mind was immediately working to think about what she should do but she shook her head, no. No she shouldn't. It didn't work last time and she had much better things to do. But this girl, it was not that Lacie was very interested in her but it was funny, she obviously had not noticed Lacie shaking her head which was good. She started to unrafel her own mask and that was obviously not the idea.

As the stranger said that she didn't poison the bread, she chuckled, "That sounds safe." she answered although still hesitante in joining. Oh whatever, what did she had to lose, obviously not her soul. Apart from that she couldn't find answers and Selena was busy. She finally went to sit down after the girl said she insist. Well at least she had manners, now she only had to introduce herself but Lacie wouldn't mind if that was left on her. Alright, maybe she was a bit strange when she bursted out laughing but Lacie reminded quiet. Didn't say anything and simply sat there watching her, looking her up and down before she introduced herself as Elena. "Hello Elena, my name is Lacie." She was quickly to spill the beans what annoyed Lacie but she didn't snow that. She simply sat there with a smile on her face.

"Wauw a mage. Sounds rather impressive." suggesting that she wasn't one, which wasn't completely a lie, she couldn't use it anymore since she dropped her faith and didn't want to help and heal people. Lacie wondered about true ice, she had never heard about it clearly, "I don't know true ice. I heard that it is possible if you are a strong mage to be capable of making ice that doesn't melt and let's see. Do I know ice mages?" She didn't, not on top of her head but she ticked with her right index finger to her chin while she was thinking. "I do know a lot of people but I can't recall everyone their magic I'm afraid." She looked a bit sad with that, she wasn't sad at all but part of the act was to feel sad for not being able to give the girl the information that she wanted.

Lacie laughed again at the stranger at that point, "It makes it a challenge to see if we can trust you if you indeed didn't poison it." normally she wouldn't take such things, basically because of the food that she mostly didn't like but today: she had nothing left to lose. Either she would die sooner or nothing would change all together.

She introduced herself after Elena said her own name and she liked her name, it showed some elegance but it was Elena that complimented her on a beautiful name. "Oh well, actually it is an anagram for my sister's name. We are twins you see and our names are anagrams for the other. My name is Lacie but hers is Alice." She liked her name more but this time, she would not show her hatred for her sister, this time she would stay nice and polite. Even though she sang the song, the poem she created a few days ago in her mind, the one that gave her the opportunity to meet Lucifer.

Elena told Lacie that she was a mage and because of her unbelieve in the Divine so suddenly, she lost the ability of her own magic and she simply pretended to not be a mage at the moment, it made things a lot easier than to explain a long story full of pain and hatred, "But I bet you would be very strong if you train it." she said with a positive tone, even though she wondered what she meant with curse and she turned her head a little sideways to look better at Elena, "What do you mean by that? A curse?" her healing magic had been called Sun's Blessing, but again she didn't tell that, she lost it: that was considered a curse.

As they talked more about Elena her magic, the question rose about true ice and she simply said what came to mind, which made her a genius apparently and her smile became more genuine, she liked getting compliments and apparently Elena wasn't shy with them, "It was just a suggestion, I wish there was more information I could give you." But that's when Elena said that it was great to only already talk and she smiled again, "I'm so glad to hear that." she herself had calmed down as well as she had to focus on her acting as well instead of on the irritation of not being able to find answers.

Lacie took a bite of the food. She looked at it and took another bite of the sandwich and looked at it again. She was a picky eater but she liked this very much. "Oh it is so tasty." She took a third bite and turned to look at the girl next to her and asked Elena what she made it off. That is when the subject changed to their names and she told about the anagram for her sister's name. Which of course brought the conversation to her twin and she had to be careful in this subject. Never to make a mistake again; like she had done with Konstantin. "Well that depends in how you mean it." She said with a short laugh, "She is a bit more rough and tough. She is a mage and works with the Rune Knights. So again it matters in what way you mean sophisticated." She doubted that Elena had met Alice because most people would mix them in that case but that was no problem. She had to be careful for the future as well and she was working on that as well. She might still have her childish act but she better change all that now she had to survive in a way with this. She should meet up with Selena soon again. But she invincibly shook off this feeling and turned her attention back to the conversation as she was still looking at Elena. She heard still something about names and quickly filled in the blanks for herself,
"Oh how interesting. What is his name?" She looked at Elena a little better; "It looks like you miss him dearly." Which was something difficult to say about Lacie and Alice. But she would figure something out.

Thanks to these questions, she quickly learned more about Elena and her curse of ice magic and she slowly nodded. Staring at the girl that cried. A short and quick grin appeared on her face but was too quickly replaced by a sad expression and Lacie scooted a little closer to pat Elena on the back. "That sounds like a very hard job. All on your own. Do not apologize for your emotions. It shows your strong will and love for your friends and family."
Yet Elena asked after that what she was doing in Hargeon and she gave her a faint smile, "I am working with my cousin to find my sister. She has been missing for quite a time. We are all very worried about her."

Talking to Elena made Lacie realized something and she jumped up. and looked at the ground, still holding on to the sandwich that Elena had sort of made for her, without them knowing they would meet. "Oh, I'm so sorry. I have to look something up. If you don't mind, I will see you here in a bit." This library held every information that she needed. It might not give information about the knights or Lucifer or how it worked to sell your soul but it could maybe tell her about people's records and she could find the man that she had tried to avoid.

Her father.

With a grin that only the people that would pass her could see, she hurried away into the library. Throwing the sandwich away in the progress to hurry towards the part where they ought to have the family files. After pleading and batting her eyelashes she got her enterance to find Richard.. whatever his surname was, which would make it very difficult. Why was she so stupid, while Alice knew everything. She bet that her sister had found her father but she had better plans with him and all she needed was an image of him now. And the spell that was slowly forming in her head, if only she knew how to work it out, but she got access to that as well in this library. She had to bite her lip not to laugh but this was going to be amazing.

Exit.
