tomes on the workbench.

тАЬThanks.тАЭ Jeremy thumbed through one of them. тАЬJeez. This is weird. Looks like magic stuff.

тАЬI suspect Lord Incarnadine will not be too much longer,тАЭ Osmirik said. тАЬIn any case, there is no
pressing need for the computer at the moment. All is well within the castle.тАЭ

тАЬYeah, thereтАЩs really no hurry. I just hope тАжтАЭ
