Books, ancient scrolls, even a few holocrons here and there. It made the scholar in him sing rowdy and loudly. The Tapani Sector was not exactly a place he liked to be these days, not with the Galactic Alliance holding sway over Fondor and its systems… just a little bit too close to that particular government, but at the end of the day he was a single Sith Acolyte.
His face wasn’t known and neither was his name.
It was during times like these that being one out of a crowd of many was a very good thing. It meant that Thost could afford to take risks such as these - wandering into enemy territory and explore a richly-stocked library without much headache.
“And you say you have all the volumes of Consporicus’ works?” the Falleen responded with something of amazement in the tone of his voice.
The assistant of the head librarian was a bookish, but cute girl. Curly, auburn hair. Light-blue eyes with little specks of onyx. A few laughing lines around her lips. Cute. If you would pay attention to it and Keshann was far too enthralled with this delightful news to do that.
“Oh, yes, m’Lord.” Thost hasn’t come out and said it, but Darcina could recognize a Lord when she saw one… even if the scales were a bit shiny and taking up her attention.
“All four-hundred and fifty-six, in fact.”
Keshann nodded resolutely. “Please upload it to screen at my table. I will need a very close look at it. A very close look, indeed.”
And with that he strode off, back to work and leaving the girl behind the counter.
Perhaps a different sort of Sith would have tried to play his charms on her, perhaps a different person would have noticed the interest welling up from her, but the Falleen had a singular focus in this current period of his life.
The ladies clearly didn’t figure into it for now.
