“Marianne… goldie, honey, dinner’s ready!” As I heard him called me that, again, I snapped.

“DAD! Stop, calling me, GOLDIE!” I rushed off from my room, with grandma’s book still in hand, all livid in the face as I yelled at father.

“There she is! c’mon, dinner’s ready, and I made your favourite!” He said as he finished preparing the last dish in the table.

“…chicken kiev?”

“It’s your favourite right?” He asked for reassurance.

“Okay… but stop calling me GOLDIE!” I doubled down as I walked to the kitchen.

As I sat in the chair and put down grandma’s journal before digging right in to the dinner that father made, alternate universe father, came.

“Nice… chicken kiev!” Alternate father, or Lux he wants me to call for simplicity sakes, join our dinner. “And, ohh… Grandma’s journal? which part were you last at?”

“I was at the part where grandma got rescued by the Velvet King from Charles! I was actually a bit confused, did grandma and her friends became vampires or something?”

“Somewhere in middle of that… I mean she did said in there that she didn’t burned to a crisp when she got out of the inn, just a bit of sting because of the sunlight!”

After finishing dinner and was about to head to my room again to continue reading grandma’s journal, I was stopped by father and Lux, they said they wanted to have a talk with me.

“Marianne… it’s been centuries and you’ve been spending it holing up in your room, reading records, journals, and books about his world, So… I was wondering if you want to do something with it!” I knew what father meant by this, but…

“Dad… I’ve spent my mortal years on performing duties after duties in Albion since you retired at 50, I did get a vacation but it was cut short when Alexandre made a mess in the Jermanic realm… so… I guess I’ll find something to make this productive but… just not now dad…” I said to him.

“Ohh, how about this, make a library! You know… you like reading the stories and events from my world, so why not organize them in a library! And while at that, record some more stuff from here on out!” Lux suggested.

“That… actually kind of sound fun, hmm…” I took a moment to ponder, thinking if it was really going to be fun or a chore, but… who am I kidding, reading them is one thing, but to have reins on recording them! that would be fun as hell. “Yeah! I think that would be fun!”

“Great! C’mon let me show you the library!” And right there… sealed the deal that he must have planned it long ago, with father I presume… well at least it’s going to be fun.

Traversing through his realm of roses after getting out of the house, we stopped at a single lone door that stands tall near a tree. He opened it where it reveals the library, it was empty of course, no contents inside its bookshelves, but it was clean and ready to be use. We then got to the middle of the room where he showed me the desk and chair I would be working in, it was sort of like a reception desk, but he said it was my workshop as well to record and read too.

“This realm is non-euclidian of course, so you won’t have a shortage of space to store the records you gather and/or made right now!” Lux added.

“Wow… wait you want me to do it now?” I realized what he said at the end.

“Ohh, no dear! It’s okay if you want to start tomorrow!”

“Hmm… well, it’s fine today too really…” As I said it to him, he immediately spawn several books beside him.

I was surprise of course and a bit overwhelmed, seeing that many written record he made of his world, but nonetheless I know for certain that there’s going to be tons of good stories here to read.

“Damn that’s a lot of books… ohh is greatpa’s story here too?” I was actually a bit excited when realizing that greatpa’s story might be here too.

“Sorry dear, if you want to know, you have to ask him directly…” And my hopes just shattered to million pieces.

“Ughh… do I have too? He’s scary to talk to you know!”

“Well again dear, you have to ask him yourself if you want to get his story!”

Hearing that again I knew they won’t budge so I let it go this time, so instead I went to the piles of books and conjured telekinesis to start organizing the books.

“Well, we’ll be leaving you now! and have fun dear!” Father and Lux then leave the library, as I was busy with organizing the books.

And… after somewhat organizing the books Lux gave me, I went to my workshop and continue where I left off with grandma’s journal.
