Annabelle's heart soared as she heard The Tome Keeper's gentle words. Her eyes lit up, and she became determined to complete this quest. With the cure handy, she could be rid of her awful diesease! No more coughing... No more blood, no more pain! Could this be real? Or was it a dream? No, it was real, Annabelle was certain of it. "Thank you." Replied the girl, tears welling in her eyes as she looked gratefully upon The Tome Keeper. Even if there was the possibility that The Tome Keeper did not have the cure, it made Annabelle feel better just knowing that a cure really did exist. Gratefully, she took the paper and flew out the door.

A few minutes later, Annabelle rushed back into the room with only one thing in mind- freedom of her certain death. Her heart was racing in anticipation, and she hoped to God that The Tome Keeper had the cure. "I've got it, I've got it!" She yelled enthusiasticaly, handing the pole to Sarah. Please, God. Show me some mercy. It meant the world to her, and though Sarah might not have what she wanted, Annabelle didn't care nonetheless. She'd done her task, and someday she'd find the cure.

Sarah smiled and took the rod, giving Annabelle 3 Doubloons in return. her smile then faded, "I haven't found a cure in my books yet I'm afraid," she sighed, "I will keep looking though, however would you like another task?"

For a moment, Annabelle smiled just as broadly as The Tome Keeper; but then her smiled faded as she was handed three dubloons. She was grateful, yes, but she wanted more than anything to have the cure. She needed another task, that was for sure. Her eyes sparkled as she looked up to the smart woman, and she nodded sadly. "Yes." She replied sweetly, trying not to sound too disappointed.

Smiling at the Tome Keeper, Zaldeer bowed, grinning broadly. "A wise old owl, eh? I think I may know someone who has a few of those," she said, turning around and winking at the woman from over her shoulder. "I'll have that owl in a jiffy, Ma'am."
---
A short time later, the white haired woman came back with what seemed to be a pair of white feathered wings on her back and a sleeping cap that resembled an owl sat on her head, the woman holding her own hat in her hands as she opened the door to the Research Room, her face looking a bit perturbed.
"Well, it took me some time, but I do believe I've found your legendary owl, Ma'am."

Sarah smiled, "That appears to be the owl, but is it?" just as she asked he heard a loud "ORLY?" from the owl, "yep, that's him..." She took the owl and placed it in a cage. She then handed Zaldeer 15 Doubloons for the owl. "Would thou wish to take another task?" ~~~~~ Sarah smiled, "I promise I will keep looking," She went to the books and started to write down something else on a piece of parchment. She then handed it to Annabelle, "There you go" The note reads: A yellow bottle of a strange mix, people call them coolers?

"Yes, I would, Ma'am," Zaldeer said with definity, her left hand taking the dubloons...though she quickly retracted it when she saw that her pinkie seemed to be slowly turning into a skeletal digit.

Nodding, Annabelle eagerly accepted the task and ran out the door.
--------------------------------------------
A few minutes later, she rushed back in with a yellow bottle in her hand. "I have it!" She yelled again, this time she hoped that she would be rewarded with the cure. If not, she'd keep trying.

Sarah smiled at Zaldeer, she noticed Zaldeer's finger. "What is happeneing to your hand?" she asked, before she started to write down something on a piece of Parchment for Zaldeer. She then handed Zaldeer the note, awaiting a responce. The note reads: A piece of armour from the Mythrill Knights. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Sarah smiled and took the yellow bottle, and gave Annabelle 2 Doubloons. "I think I may have found it, but I have to read through the book to make sure. Could you wait a while?" Sarah asked Annabelle, with a slight smile on her face.

Annabelle nodded. "Is there anything else I can help you with? Any ingridients you need to make the process faster?" She was eager to be cured. It was like a dream come true. Her chest heaved in exitedment, and she couldn't help but smile. She found the cure!!

Sarah smiles at Annabelle's enthusiasm, "I can keep sending you on tasks until I find out if this will cure it, or just delay the ending effect of the disease," She writes something on a piece of parchment then hands it to Annabelle, "I hope I have found what you are looking for." it was quite funny though, Usually Sarah woukd send people to find things she needed, now this girl was getting Sarah to find something needed to cure a disease! The note reads: A cap, worn by a student who has gained a bachelors in a course

When the hand returned, it was completely normal. "Hm? What do you mean, what's happening to my hand? It's simply hiding the dubloons I was given," she lied cooly, smiling innocently. "Perhaps you imagined something?"
"Alright...this could be interesting," she said, blinking a few extra times. "Hummm...now where could I find that...I haven't heard of any Mythrill Knights," she muttered, walking out absent-mindedly muttering to herself.

After a few moments, Annabelle Lee rushed back into the room. She was panting- obviously her enthusiasm forced her to run the whole way. "I've gotten what you requested." She remarked gently, smiling as she held out the cap.

Returning some time later, Zaldeer again approached the Tome Keeper, holding the Mythrill armor in her arms. "I've brought you the armor you've requested, Ma'am, and I'd still like to try for another quest, if you don't mind."

Sarah smiled at Annabelle and took the hat, giving her 1 Doubloon in return. She then puts it on a table, and turns back to Annabelle, "It seemd this is a cure, but it's not easy to get a hold of the ingredients," she sighed. "There are over 100 ingredients, are you willing to go and search for them all?" she asked before continuing.
