The three sages except Armand's offer, especially Lew, he is a halfling after all, and after all the Wardens completed their adventures for the day, the feasting began in earnest. It is obvious that the three sages are a good fit for the Tree, as they seem to fit right in with the other guests, almost as if they have been living there for years, even though they just arrived this morning. The party is one for the record books as there is much to celebrate, especially after all the sadness of late. and it goes well into the night.
For the next few months the hub-bub is all about the library, with many taking advantage of the temporary library at Wardens HQ, so many so that even Armand starts to question his offer. The Wardens take it in stride as is their way, reminding themselves that it is just another service to the community they love.
Finally the big day has come, and the library's grand opening is today. The Tree's residences are in a tizzy with excitement, and when the time finally comes, everyone is there. Folbre begins with a speech talking about how Armand's dream has come to pass, and how this library will be a boon to the literacy of the residence. He concludes by thanking the Wardens for the generous use of their home, in the interim. Grenad Blueshrub takes the podium after, to many cheers. In the last few months, the three sages have become quite popular, and have gained an almost celebrity like status. He begins his speech talking about the mission of the Sage's Guild, then begins to speak on the joys of reading, and the ability to research most any topic here in the library. After Grenad's speech, the three sages and Folbre use a giant pair of scissors to cut a blue ribbon in front of the door, officially opening the library.
There are a myriad of games and activities, which add to the festive spirit of the day, and the merry making is scheduled to go on through the rest of the day, though it is currently 3pm. Everyone make a DC 20 perception check. Highlight to display spoiler: {You notice a guard running in to speak to Miles and Folbre, who happen to be standing together chatting, and a perplexed look crosses their faces, as the guard speaks.}

Neshi is enjoying the celebration and even to some extent the speeches, particularly now, having availed himself of the use of one of the sages and some elemental language books to learn a rudimentary control the elemental languages over the past months, as well as learning about his gloves. But is at the moment it is all about the children and Neshi is currently blindfolded and playing pin the tail on the satyr with them and is unaware of anything else at the moment.

He is quick to recall an incident one morning years ago involving some dwarves, a young lady, and apples.

'Hmm, Armand thinks to himself, 'This doesn't look good.' Armand wanders towards the direction from which the guard came.

Vamir spends the next few months with Melzat, amazed at his companions strength, and large size. Vamir watches in awe as Melzat flattens training dummies, slamming them into splinters, or biting clean through them. Melzat no longer frolics like he did when much smaller, but is very cautious where he walks and sits. After knocking Vamir over several times, and almost sitting on a halfling Melzat is almost comically cautious around the folks at the tree.
Vamir wakes up early the morning of the party and draws Woldsblood for his spells (Reflex 28, Concentration 31) Vamir conducts his rituals: Ritual of Warding (Survival 22 success) and Ritual of Spiritual Healing (Heal 36 success).
Vamir is glad for the party, and makes sure to get Melzat into a corner so he can enjoy it as the witch mingles with the crowd. Vamir makes sure to play with Owen's son, and compliment Neshi, and Armand on their new gloves, and glaive haft. Vamir is engaged in conversation with a gnome when he notices the guard rush in. Vamir begins slowly making his way across the room something about this is probably not good.
Ritual of Warding (Survival) Success: The coven gains a +1 bonus to AC and saving throws. Failure: The coven suffers a -1 penalty on saving throws vs spells.
Ritual of Spiritual Healing (Heal): Success: All cure spells cast by the coven are more effective; coven members roll d12’s for Cure Wounds spells instead of d8’s. Failure: The coven rolls d6’s instead of d8’s when casting cure spells.

Elyngael is clapping and cheering with the rest of the Tree revelers. She is happy for Armand and the new library. It couldn't be in a better place. She notices the guard about the same time as Armand and Vamir. She casually walks to where the guard is talking, not wanting to interrupt the festivities.

Owen notices the guard rush in. He'll keep an eye on the proceedings from a healthy distance--while making sure Simon doesn't get into too much trouble amid the festivities.
