Emma was now browsing through one of the many aisles, in a more modern section.
"Rowling, Rowling...where are you, m'dear?"

The library had remained relatively undisturbed for quite some time now; Emma was draped over an armchair, leg hanging off the side as she thumbed through a series of books, all relatively thin but great in number.

Emma returned to the library, sighing slightly as she eyed the silver figures on her desk. Each Battledome regular, carved in exquisite detail. The enchantress waved a hand over them, and each seemed to move slightly, one making a move to draw a sword, another opening a book, each mirroring their flesh and blood counterparts.
She had sent out the call again.
And, hopefully, they would answer.

Onoma's body phased into Emma's library the moment he felt the tingle of a summon. His eyes white and empty, body black as night.
"How may I help you Milady?"

"Ah, Onoma. I have a few questions to ask of you." She clicked her fingers, and the image of an ancient, worn volume appeared above the desk.
"This was stolen from the library a few hours ago."

"Of course ask anything you desire."
When she spoke and he saw the book, nothing came to mind
"Well I can say I haven't seen any books such as that."

Jester entered looking confused. "What was I doing...." He wondered to himself out loud

"Let me know if you do. It has spells within it that should not be used by amateurs."
She turned to Jester. "You were Called."

"Really? I never knew there were people that could still do that. What did you use? Did you learn it from a book? Could I read about it? Is it something that has to be taught? Could you teach me?" Jester grew excited and forgot about the crucial bit of WHY he had been called.

She took a breath, answering each question individually. "I used sorcery, I did not learn it from a book, you could probably read about it, it is not easily taught, and I could only teach you with a few centuries of time and dedication."

"I have a couple million years left to learn" Jester replied. He remembered that she had called him for some reason. "So why the Call?"

"There has been a theft from the library and I need eyes and ears to let me know if the object stolen is seen."

Jester thought for a moment. "I can tell you now someone entered through a void and left through one, using no other magic. I'll keep my eyes open though."

"A void...that narrows it down." Her eyes narrowed as well, her arms folding almost instinctively.
She knew what was going on, and was not happy about it.

Jester cocked his head slightly "You have a person in mind?"
