Epros was hardly a hero himself, and so he had no reason to tell anyone, much less this young man, what he should be doing. Epros went where his curiosity lead him. If he stopped a few people from being harmed in the process, however, he would hardly complain.

He wasn't entirely sure what a "smart phone" was, but it did sound like the young man could tell him how to make some progress with the journals. Excellent. Another step closer to the answers he sought. "As I recall, while on my way here, 'tis a cafe fairly near."
