Some Things Worth Stealing

The Magic SOB forum is for posts of story sequences that are frequently vignette-based. Put those here while actual battle reports can go in Reports From the Field.
You must talk like James T. Kirk in this forum at all times. Leonard Nimoy is fine too.

Basement, the Parsinian Archives. The Archives boasts the biggest collection of manuscripts, books and writings in the kingdom. The one-roomed basement is where the greatest academic treasures and ancient tomes are stored.

Scholar: "What the devil?"

Image

Scholar: "Aah! What are yo..." 'slash'

Image

Hooded Figure: "Ah. Here it is! Gently now..."

Image

Image

Hooded Figure: "What?!? It's gone!"

Image

Hooded Figure: "Don't just stand there, look for it!"

Image

Hooded Figure: "Let's see, is it in one of the books?"

Image

Hooded Figure: "Aargh! They must have removed it from the Archives!"

Image

Hooded Figure: "Let's leave a little parting 'gift' then, shall we?"

A few hours later...

Image

Head Librarian: "How dare they..."

Image

Head Librarian: "Wait a minute." 'grunting'

Image

Head Librarian: 'grunts' "Ah!"

Image

Head Librarian: "Thank God! It didn't burn!"

Image

Head Librarian: "Wheh! They didn't find it!"

Silly undead. They could've at least questioned the scholar. Nice work on the set piece. :tiger:
