"Finally we could meet again." (Baron Westhill)
"Yes. It is good to see familiar faces. Is he your son?" (Gargoile)"
"I am son of baron Westhill, Herman Westhill." (Herman)
He simply named himself and left.
"He isn´t much talking type. He must have come to see if I have become insane. Naturally he must meet someone who helped around barony in dark times. He is going to inherit my title." (Baron Westhill)
Is your barony going to be alright?
"Or my race is reason for his leaving." (Gargoile)
"That isn´t the case." (Baron Westhill)
"Are you sure?" (Gargoile)
"..." (Baron Westhill)
"I know what my appearance means. There will always be people who fell dispair, danger, hate or hopelessness. I can´t escape it." (Gargoile)
There is no need to talk about it. It might have been wrong to talk about it. No one gains anything from this. Fortunately he change direction of talk.
"More importantly. I would like to hear how this place works. Why couldn´t we meet week ago when my subordinate came here?" (Baron Westhill)
"That is simple. I can connect to one place only once per week. I was about to move another location. We didn´t have enough time to meet without danger of place change. I could only return week later which would have mean I kidnapped you. I wanted to avoid that." (Gargoile)
"I see. That is how it works." (Baron Westhill)
"Why can you believe me so easily?" (Gargoile)
"Isn´t it normal?" (Baron Westhill)
What? What?
"What do you mean?" (Gargoile)
I tried myself to be as calm as possible. I hope I didn´t sound desperate.
"Isn´t it thanks to magic? I thought that everyone acted normal around it. I have only meet few scholars who doubted about it. I didn´t know you were one of those persons." (Baron Westhill)

"I thought this was only place which could do so." (Gargoile)
"I think there is no other places lke this one. Word library is new to me too. Why do you speak that way? It is like I´m weird here." (Baron Westhill)
"Sorry about it. I´m not from here. So, I was suprised what you said." (Gargoile)
"Don´t worry about it. Would you like to hear something I heard from the scholar? It might be useful to you." (Baron Westhill)
"Sure." (Gargoile)
"Look at that shelf over there." (Baron Westhill)
There was big shelf of romance novels. Like all shelf in here, I knew this shelf here.
"Now I want you to close your eyes." (Baron Westhill)
I did so.
"Now open them." (Baron Westhill)
I opened my eyes and looked at the shelf.
"Do you see what changed? ... No. You don´t need to answer. I changed these two books places."
I didn´t notice it but why would he think I noticed the difference right away without doubt.
"Why did you know I saw difference so easily?" (Gargoile)
I didn´t like to lie but I have bad feeling about this.
"That is because you are part of the magical races. Everyone can see these changes easily. Scholar has theory about non magical races. They can´t see this difference. Because we have lived around magical phenomenon over the countless generations, we have become able to see these disappearances and changes easily to survive against dangers. Non magical races aren´t able to adapt to these situations." (Baron Westhill)
This is even more dangerous than I expected. No this is good thing. This means that I´m still human from earth. They aren´t human I knew of. They are other race completely.
Baron noticed my absent mind and left after giving his thanks. He said we most likely won´t meet each other until his title is changed to his son. I should avoid connecting here for a while. It would be better for both of us. I need to process what I found out.

My mind is retarded compared to locals more than one way. I must find way to protect my mind and soul. They are defenceless here. Westhill is smart man. He surely figures out what is going on. He can´t be silent about it. This could be weakness to all gargoyles over the world.
