Bookshelf Guide
You know what we should
do more of? Reading.
Oh come on, Kraden,
we're not students anymore...
I think I'd rather just
focus on honing my blade and Psynergy.
Who needs reading when
you can just burn things?
Literature is just as
important.
Hmm. I feel like if you
hit a monster over the head with a thick tome, it still won't do as much good.
... That's really not
what he meant, Garet.
Literature is important
for the preservation of history. And of course, we must do our best to pass it
down to our descendants. I know I did my best... though, in the end, going
against the teachings was the right decision after all.
So I'm off the hook for
lighting Mercury Lighthouse?
... You still tried to use
us to gain ultimate power, so. No.
Anyway, you can find a
lot of bookshelves around Weyard.
And it's all been
