By now she didn't even know what to expect of this place. She just knew they had to find out more about this brooch.

The reference section? Aah of course they'd hopefully find some stuff about Runes here or hieroglyphics or whatever that thing had on it.

At Sierra's question, Nessie just nodded. She wasn't really one to be good at Ancient Runes. In fact it had to have been one of her weakest subjects, if not her weakest. So she was far from being any help at the moment. For now she would just listen and observe till she could do more.

The Ravenclaw couldn't help but overanalyze the whole thing, up until she heard Sierra talk.

"It is where we should start looking for references." Louisa spent most of her free time in the library. Maybe this year was the exception with fewer hours spent in here but the Ravenclaw was... well, a Ravenclaw. She moved to the bookshelves. "Mr. Kitridge organized these references by subject. Maybe we'll find something in Ancient Runes." She said slowly moving along the bookshelf until she made it to the right section.

"You think 'Magical Hieroglyphs and Logograms' is a good start?"


With Nessie and Louisa already here, Sierra turned the bookshelves, as well. She wasn't really familiar with the library. At all. She only came in here if she absolutely had to, and even then, it was just to grab the one book she needed, check it out, and return to the common room. She never stayed in here for hours pouring over whatever she could get her hands on.

...and that would be another reason the sorting hat didn't put her with the Claws. She was no researcher.

Louisa was, though! Sierra shrugged in reply to her question. "You're the Ravenclaw here," she said. In other words, she would probably know best. "Did you get a good look at the brooch, though? What type of writing was on there? Because...hieroglyphs and logograms are pictures, right? Was the writing made up of picture or runic symbols?"

Or were they all in the same?

Sierra looked toward Nessie. Did she have any bright ideas?
