[And they win a Spring every once in a while.]

[Does magic exclusively run in families? No Muggleborns, as it were - does your language thing give you references like that -]

Permalink

[I can recognize the term but .... does it have something to do with a popular series? Also it doesn't exclusively run in families but it's not that useful if you don't have any spells and typically those are only in families.]

Permalink

[Yes, the word Muggle is from a series of books that came out when my parents were kids.]

Permalink

[Do lots of people get to read books now?]

Permalink

[Yes. In countries in the same general band of niceness as this one, almost everyone can read and books are cheap to own and free to borrow.]

Permalink

[That's really cool! I didn't know how to read until I was a champion.... I don't think I've actually read a book ever.]

Permalink

[We can find some books online for you to read while we're waiting to be assailed in the park.]

Permalink

[What sort of things should I read?]

Permalink

[What kinds of stories do you like, what kinds of topics do you want to know more about?]

Permalink

[I like adventures and want to know about everything.]

Permalink

[Well, 'everything' doesn't narrow it down much but I can find you some public domain adventures. Do you only know English or do you also have modern French, I speak modern Québécois so if you're getting it from me you should too.]

Permalink

[I have English, a bit of Spanish, Polish, and ... Arabic? I think.]

Permalink

[Huh, where do they come from? Shouldn't you at least have old French, you were French.]

Permalink

[Oh yeah I still have old French and Chinese and Gaelic too, I just was talking about the new ones. I don't know where they came from.]

Permalink

[Well, maybe you'll be able to read some French books I like, too, I like old books.]

Permalink

[I think I only have reading for the other languages, since the French is from my lifetime and I didn't know how to read it then.]

Permalink

[Oh, well, its spelling isn't much better than English's but you have the alphabet and the language and that's most of the battle, really, I can teach you to read French while we're hanging out in the park.]

Permalink

[If there are things written in old French around that would be fun.]

Permalink

How old exactly, does the Wikipedia page say when the Seven Day Plague was?

Permalink

Around the 9th century, sources are inconsistent about exactly when.

Permalink

"French has, unfortunately, probably changed a lot since then, my favorite French author lived in the 1800s."

Permalink

"Was that recently?"

Permalink

"Couple hundred years ago."

Lia knows how to do arithmetic! Lucian was very insistent about that.

"Am I... over a thousand years old?"
