Deep in thought, Asbalon Jade slowly walked through a vast library. Rows and rows of books, as far as the eye could see. Between the rows, old tables litered with books and surrounded by compfy chairs awaited any visitors. Elegant chandeliers from the cieling hanging on silver chains bathed everything in a warm golden glow. In his hands a seemingly tattered old open book, bound in leather.
He stopped infront of another shelf, quietly mumbling "Anoikis" as his eyes scanned the books.
"Ahem".
Without looking to the visitor, Asbalon tapped a book, sending it off flying to the nearest table, "What is it Carina?"
The hologram of his personal ships artifical Inteligence wavered slightly and spoke with a soft voice, "I think there might be something interessting for you coming up".
"And that something might be?" he answered, turning to her. "Arek'jaalan" "Gesundheit" Carina's hologram coughed, "No sir, Arek'Jaalan. It seems to be a new atempt at solving the Sleepers." "Another one?", Asbalon raised an eyebrow, his eyes wandered to a book shelf behind Carina. "This one... might be diffrent. It's beeing led by Hilen Tukoss". "Tukoss... Tukoss... ahh the Caldari that ehm.. how did they put it.. changed employers?" "That is correct."
Carina opend am interface for Asbalon displying all the news and information she had collected about Hilen Tukoss. "You know Carina", Asbalon said with a frown, "I would appreciate it if you could keep this VR clean".
Carina sighed, the interface disapeared, and in the blink of any eye her appearance changed dramaticly. Now donning a late victorian dress, she held a book towards him, the title: 'Arek'Jaalan'.
Asbalon took the book with a smile and began browsing the pages, "Ah much better. Carina, please tell the crew of DSX Ramuh, that we will be postponing the trip to Wspace" With a nod, Carina transmitted the orders to the Legion Class vessel, "I thought you wanted to visit a Mirror again? We've been preparing the flightplan for weeks now. You can follow the fluid routers just as well from Wspace."
Asbalon smiled again, "True, but my dear, I have the slight feeling that soon I will have to talk, and not say something. Best be we stay close by for this one." From out of his pocket he produced a wodden pipe, and subsequently began blowing bubbles out of it while walking through his library, absent mindedly reading the new book Carina had given him. "By the way" he called without turning to her, "Do establish a connection to all the chanels, yes? Thank you my dear".
3.4billion calculations later, Carina had -again- come to the conclusion he was -scientificly spoken- nuts. The hologram faded, giving out a soft sigh, while establishing the connections.
