Father Nivard has given you the keys to the Library while he's running
an errand at the chancery. Feel free to spend as much time as you
like. If you're like me, there are many, many words and terms used
in Kelson's time that are not in common use in our time, and they've left
you puzzling their meanings. I've done my best to find as many of
the definitions that are in the proper context as I could. And...if,
while you're wandering about in the library, you take a peak at what's
on the good Father's desk, I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you sat down and
perused the projects he's working on.
