The existence of a device to cool one's body within heavy armor was something new to Miyuki, although she might have heard of such spells in the past. Spells such as 'Continual Flame' was commonplace among braziers and wall torches, and there were plenty of continual spells with minor effects, as if a permanent casting of 'Prestidigitation' has been placed upon the object. In this case, it was the armor, and Miyuki imagined that the guards might be more cooled than she as even if she moved around in the nude within Laelith. She did nearly stumble, but thanks to one of those guards, Miyuki ended up alright.<br/><br/>The walk to the Library was one which Miyuki went about with caution. The dulcimer could be considered exotic, and she did use her body to act as a cushion whenever she needed to get through a tight gap. The library was another place of splendor, Miyuki breathing in the cool air with both nose and mouth to bask in the cooling environment, using the sleeve of her robe to dab away slightly at the beads of sweat forming along her brow. She might have been used to the heat of oriental countries, but it was always better to be in a place of cooling.<br/><br/><strong>"Sil."</strong>Miyuki greeted with a bow as she entered. Walking over to the table, Miyuki squinted slightly at the notes as if doing so might allow her to understand it better. While her proficiency with Common, Elvish and Dwarven might be fluent, the exotic languages such as Draconic were still a challenge for her. She understood the basics of the language, and part of her slapped herself mentally for not preparing a spell which might allow her to comprehend languages easier.<br/><br/><strong>"Draconic... I'd say average at best."</strong>Miyuki replied sheepishly.<strong>"This dulcimer? Well I just got it pretty recently, and I'm still quite a novice. However..."</strong><br/><br/>Finding a space on the table, Miyuki pulled out the dulcimer carefully, taking her time in ensuring that the instrument was kept in its quality. To even leave a mark on it would be horrible, a bad impression not only to her employers but also to herself as a bard. Apart from her very first ritual in which her holy juices were applied into the instrument she was bound to, Miyuki has never tolerated having her precious pieces of art being dirtied or defiled in any way.<br/><br/><strong>"May Sil be blessed not only with the wisdom to understand and match the puzzles, but may the gods also grant her rest through perseverance."</strong>Miyuki softly hummed, her fingers protected by little sleeves as she began to play. A simple tune, nothing elaborate. Perhaps a calming and simple melody to ease one's heart, rather than a spirit soaring tune to prompt a warrior forward.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body">At 2017-07-24 02:46:02, Relikai (uid: 59589) rolls: 1d20a10 Result: 19 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=105501)<br/><br/>Performance Roll for Miyuki and the Dulcimer.<br/>Miyuki casts Bardic Inspiration on Sil. </div></div>
