Ember Legacy, Volume 2

Chapter 13: Read and Right

City of Vale

"When walking into the lair of the dragon after robbing his hoard,

the least you could do is hold your head high."

~ Ilona Andrews, Fate's Edge

"She really has improved, just in the month or so since you had visited last," the indigo-haired Elf next to Pyrrha murmured.

"Indeed," she nodded levelly, gazing out across the training yard situated within the walls of the small keep. "Actual combat can do that."

"Oh, undoubtedly," Nebula laughed softly, her own olive-colored eyes watching the bout with interest.

The tiny fortress located within the town walls, much like others of its ilk spread across the kingdoms, was the home for the Vale chapter of the Order of Artemis. As such, it served as both haven and place of respite, though there was always a small contingent of Knights who were garrisoned there, along with the local Head of the Order, a position awarded by merit and ability. Some of these Knights preferred to be tied down to one particular town or kingdom, while others merely took a brief hiatus from adventuring across the breadth of Remnant, much as Pyrrha and her squire were doing at that particular moment. Of course, there were other reasons for Knights to gather together, such as the sharing of information.

"So from what you've been telling me," Pyrrha interjected quietly over the clash of steel. "Vale has quite suddenly experienced a severe loss of leadership?"

Nebula nodded slowly, wincing slightly as Gwen received a particularly brutal strike against her shield, driving her back a step. Jeanne was quick to press her advantage, her long blonde hair streaming behind her in twin ponytails as she twirled about, sword flashing in the late afternoon sun.

"Captain of the Guard, both for the town and Vale Keep… Heads of most Guilds and Orders… Most of the King's Council..." The Elven Knight shook her head slowly. "I'd normally look towards the Assassin's Guild or even the Thief's Guild with some amount of suspicion, but the heads of both have turned up dead recently as well. Guildmaster of Assassins Butcher was slain about a week ago, but there's been nobody to replace him. Someone else is pulling the strings there from the shadows. And Guildmaster of Thieves Torchwick was killed a couple of nights ago."

"The head of the Assassin's Guild was named Butcher?" Pyrrha interjected incredulously, glossing over the latter mention as she'd received a detailed retelling of Ruby and Blake's encounter with the man.

Nebula snorted softly. "Yes, nobody could ever call that lot subtle. Their profession notwithstanding."

The redhead sighed, glancing up at the multistoried fortified building behind her. "And still no word on Lady Ingrid?"

The Elven Knight shook her head once more, sadly this time. "No, and none of the Knights who went to look for her have returned, either. Granted, they might still be following her trail all the way to Mistral, but…"

"There should be something," Pyrrha finished for her friend. She reached over to clasp a crimson armored fist over the grey one of the ranking Knight of their Order still in Vale. "It might yet prove to be other than foul play."

"With all the other murders and missing people around here?" Nebula snorted again. "I sincerely doubt that. But I will await word from Headmistress Sienna on how she wishes to handle the situation." Her olive-colored eyes grew worried as her gaze dropped. "I do not wish to become Head of this chapter under such circumstances."

"We all do as we must," Pyrrha consoled softly. "We are Knights."

The pair of them glanced up at a loud crash. Gwen was now on her back, disarmed and with her hands raised in surrender. A flushed but quite pleased-looking Jeanne sheathed her sword, chest heaving from exertion, as she extended a hand to help her opponent up.

"Speaking of which, why has she not been Knighted yet?" Nebula asked wryly. "I'm the only one here to have beaten her, she and Octavia fought each other to a standstill… Neither Gwen nor Dew are exactly pushovers, so she obviously has the skill." She shot the redhead an amused glance. "Your training has definitely paid off."

"Well, yes, she's certainly been an able student," Pyrrha admitted, working very hard to keep any trace of a blush off of her face. If only you knew the extent of her motivation and how incredibly attractive I find that quality, among other aspects of that wonderfully gorgeous woman…

She gave herself a quick shake to distract from that line of thought. "But it still comes down to the lance, unfortunately."

Nebula snorted once more. It was very unladylike habit she'd maintained even after attaining Knighthood a decade ago. "Please, that is such an outdated requirement…"

"But a requirement nonetheless."

"Unless she has some feat of nobility or fame to circumvent the usual requirements."

Pyrrha nodded slowly. "Indeed. The quest we are on now… Well, opportunities abound. We shall see what circumstances will afford us the chance. If we stay alive, that is."

"Really?" the indigo-haired woman scoffed. "Nothing will happen to the Invincible Lady Nikos."

"You are certain of that, are you, Lady Violette?" the redhead asked with a grin.

"I am, and I will provide you the opportunity to remind us all why you're one of the best in the Order." Nebula gave her a wink as she stepped off of the platform they'd been observing from. "Care to spar with me, sister?"

"It would be my pleasure, sister," Pyrrha replied warmly, hopping off of the stone terrace with a jingle of her metal armor.

o o o

"Sooo…" the brunette crouched next to Blake murmured.

"Mmm?" she hummed inquisitively in response.

Ruby turned towards her, smirk very evident even in the dim light cast by the overhead broken moon. "Yang and Weiss, huh?"

The Cat Faunus let out a soft snort. "So I hear."

"So everyone in Vale heard," the diminutive girl chuckled back quietly. "I don't think poor Jeanne has stopped blushing even now." She peered curiously at the townhouse across the street as the last remaining lighted window on the top floor finally darkened. "Gotta say, I'm more than a little surprised at Weiss, though."

"Not Yang?"

"Well…" The blonde's little sister shot her a speculative look. "Not from the stories you've told me."

"She has definitely been… promiscuous in the past," Blake hedged. "That was the impression I received. And, yes, she's been a blatant flirt in the few weeks I've known her."

"Yup."

"But not Weiss?"

"Nooo…" Ruby giggled, the sound as entrancing as always to the raven-haired girl. Gods, I could just listen to that melodic laugh… No, concentrate, Belladonna…

The brunette continued on, fortunately not noticing the blush that Blake managed to force down once more, an occurrence that she found herself doing more and more often over the course of the past few evenings. "Yeah, she seemed kinda uptight at first, but she's really not. Still, I definitely wasn't expecting her to, y'know… jump on in."

"So are they just, er… casual lovers?" Blake tried to keep her own voice casual while discussing the couple.

"Well, see, that's the thing," Ruby grinned, moving to the side and craning her neck to peer down into the street below. "I think it might've started out that way, maybe even for the both of them… But did you see how they were looking at each other this morning?"

Blake shook her head slowly, once again working very arduously to dispel the blush as she recalled exactly who it was that had been the focus of her attention that morning. Like a bloody love-struck teenager, she thought with considerable chagrin.

"Yeah, pretty sure they're hooked," the brunette giggled once more. "Totally into each other."

"Oh."

"So, you wanna do this?"

"Er…" Blake gave herself a shake, taking one more quick perusal of the surrounding area. "Sure, let's go."

As the nearby rooftops weren't all that conducive to landings, the pair dropped down and into an alleyway bordering the building they were on. Then, like shadows themselves, they slipped across the street, darting in between the patches of darkness, until they found themselves up against the servant's entrance.

"Okay," Ruby whispered excitedly. "Do your magic!"

Blake couldn't help but snicker to herself quietly at the shorter girl's enthusiasm. It was a pervasive trait of hers that the normally reticent Faunus found more endearing every moment spent with her.

Without further ado, the Rogue had the lock picked, and the pair of them slipped inside noiselessly. Fortunately the library was on the ground floor, but first they had to pass through the kitchen and the domestic staff rooms.

Both of them froze, halfway across the darkened kitchen, as they heard soft footsteps approaching, preceded by the faint light of a lantern.

"Damn," the Faunus Rogue hissed, looking about frantically. She managed to suppress a startled squawk as Ruby suddenly pulled on her arm. The shorter girl pushed her into the crowded pantry first, then scooting up against her and closing the door mostly shut.

Blake hardly dared to breathe as Ruby pressed her eye to the crack in the door.

Not the only thing that's being pressed… Oum, last time I was this intimate with a person, it was with far less clothing…

She desperately closed her eyes, trying very hard to ignore the body up against the front of her. The petite girl with red-tipped brown hair certainly has strength in her limbs, but she was also quite soft in all the right places.

She just prayed that Ruby didn't turn around anytime soon, else her furious blush would immediately give her away.

"What do you see?" she murmured almost inaudibly.

Ruby turned her head slightly, though it caused her chin to brush up against the raven-haired girl's breast under her black leather vest. The brunette froze, as if she was just now realizing the position they were in, before quietly clearing her throat.

"It's…" The petite girl cleared her throat again to dispel the squeaky quality of her voice. "It's the owner."

"Why is he down here?"

"Well, if I had to guess… he's heading for a maid's room."

Blake snorted out a soft laugh. "You're kidding me," she deadpanned.

Laughing quietly as well, Ruby turned her head once more to face forward. "Hey, I just call 'em as I see 'em."

After another moment's pause, the faint light from the door crack now receded to nothing once more, the brunette nodded decisively and glided out of the closet. Blake followed on her heels as they snuck through the townhouse, across the foyer and into the library.

"Okay," Ruby whispered as she closed the door behind them. "Stand guard for me?"

"Sure," the Rogue shrugged, leaning up against the door and listening intently.

Like the previous break-ins, it didn't take long for Ruby to ascertain that what they were looking for simply wasn't there.

In short order the pair had removed themselves from the home, locking the door back behind them once more, and found themselves sauntering down the street nonchalantly.

"I have a question," Blake murmured after a bit.

"Sure, what's up, Blakey?"

The Cat Faunus glanced aside at the bubbly brunette. "Blakey?"

"Oh, um… Sorry, I won't call you that if it bothers you…"

"No, not at all, it's just…" Blake frowned slightly. "Most people, when they create a nickname for me, base it upon my heritage. Like your sister did."

"Oh. Well, would you prefer that?"

"No, I don't mind… Blakey is… different." Privately, she decided that she rather liked it. As unique to me as she is.

"So, what was your question?" Ruby prompted.

"Oh, yes… How can you be certain that this manuscript would not be hidden away somewhere from prying eyes?"

"Well, couple of reasons," Ruby began after a moment's hesitation. "For one, a collector would want to show something like this off to visitors, not keep it hidden away."

"But they could secure it, and then bring it out to display."

"Yes, that's true. But then the other thing comes into play."

Blake glanced aside at her companion curiously as the brunette chewed on her bottom lip. "Er… if you don't want to tell me, that's fine…"

"No, it's not that, just…" Ruby sighed. "There's some stuff I can't really explain yet, okay? One of those is how I can sense if the manuscript is close by. So I'm not just physically looking for it, I'm also kind of… extending my senses to see if it's there, or has been recently. It will have sort of a… a residue, because of who's been in contact with it."

"Mmm." The Cat Faunus paced alongside her partner for a few more steps. "And who was in contact with this manuscript last?"

"Uhhh… Yeah, that's one of the things I can't talk about."

Blake shot her a skeptical look, which the brunette returned with a sheepish shrug and an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, Blakey, I really do want to… but not yet, okay? It's… complicated. And even more so now that I found Yang, 'cause she's gotta have a say in it too."

"Fair enough," the raven-haired girl conceded. She let out a startled eep as the shorter girl wrapped her arms around her middle in an unexpected and tight hug.

"Thanks for understanding, Blakey," the brunette murmured.

Blake paused in her steps, returning the hug with a soft smile and yet another blush. "You're welcome, Ruby," she sighed.

The pair separated after what seemed to be an eternity, each of them carefully not looking at the other.

"So!" Ruby exclaimed in a slightly too-loud voice. "Tell me about your bow!"

"My… bow?"

"Yep, the one you have hidden away! Is it magical? Didja name it? Where did you get it from?"

Blake grinned at the enthusiastic line of questioning, not paying much attention to where their meanderings were taking them, instead deciding to relax and enjoy the company. Well, as much as she could ever relax when walking through the darkened streets of Vale at night.

"I call it Gambol Shroud. It's not magical, but very well made, strong and accurate. The black wood is what attracted me to it when I saw it in a stash that had been, er… 'liberated' from a merchant convoy. It's easily concealable at night."

"Black wood?" Ruby interjected, her silver eyes shining. When Blake nodded, her steps seemed to bounce a little more in her excitement. "Does it have any runes carved into the wood?"

"Yes, it does, mostly vines and leaves and the like. It's very pretty, but…"

"Oh my Oum, Blakey, do you not know what you have?" Ruby almost squealed with delight.

She couldn't help but return the grin of her enthusiastic companion. "Er, no? I suppose not?"

"Okay, so there's only one kind of wood that's both black and strong enough to make a bow out of," Ruby began, her words spilling forth rapidly as she practically stumbled over herself in her haste to explain. "Duskwood. And a bow with runes already on it, made of Duskwood…? What you have there is the raw material for a really, and I mean really powerful enchanted weapon, and probably of Elven make!"

"It… It is?" Blake was understandably perplexed. She'd always felt attached to Gambol Shroud, enough so that even after she'd renounced her assassin past, she had clung to it, refusing to give it up. But she had no idea it was truly that valuable for what was presumably a mere bow.

"Oh yeah, trust me, if there's one thing I know it's weapons." By now the brunette was practically skipping alongside. "Hey, can I do the enchanting for you?"

"You'd do that for me?"

"Well, yeah!" Ruby gave her a wide, guileless smile. "Besides, I know Yang promised you a bonus for finding me. This can be it! Oh, I got all kinds of ideas for what we can do…"

At that the other girl fell silent, her brows furrowed as she evidently went deep into planning mode, leaving Blake even more perplexed.

"You know… it's really not necessary," Blake tried to protest quietly.

Ruby stopped once more, peering up into the Cat Faunus' eyes with her intense pools of silver. "But I want to," she stated softly.

"Oh," Blake murmured, halting as well. "Well, then… thank you."

"You're welcome."

The two stood there for perhaps a good minute before they each gave themselves a shake, chuckling ruefully. Neither one noticed the fierce blush on the other girl's face as they turned to walk forward once more.

"So…" Blake murmured, playing with the bottom of her vest. "Where are we going next?"

"Oh, yeah…" Ruby laughed hesitantly, rubbing the back of her neck. "Well, everything's been a bust so far, sooo…"

Blake stopped once more as she saw where their seemingly meandering walk had taken them, peering up at the castle that loomed over them, much as it loomed over the town itself.

Vale Keep.

"Ah," she murmured. "I see."

"Still up for it?" Ruby asked with a lopsided grin.

"Oh, sure," she chuckled nervously. "Never broken into the Royal Library before, much less the Keep itself. Er… should be fun, right?"

"That's the spirit!" the brunette cheered mutedly. "So, any ideas?"

"Well, I do have one…" Blake pursed her lips, her gaze still riveted on the castle. "I have an associate who broke in once, we can try that way…" A slow smile spread across her lips at the thought.

o o o

"Blake?" the brunette hissed irritably, perhaps an hour later.

"Mmm?"

"This was a terrible idea."

"You wanted inside…"

Ruby descended into a torrent of barely-audible grumbled curses, while the Rogue simply grinned unrepentantly at her companion's new attire.

She had to admit, the petite brunette filled out the skimpy maid's outfit rather ably.

"I don't get why I have to be the one to wear this getup, anyways," the other girl finally stated flatly as they walked through the deserted corridor.

"It got us through the side gate," Blake replied levelly. "The guards on the night watch are considerably more lax."

"Yes, I get that, but how come you don't have to wear one?"

The Cat Faunus was quite skilled at concealing her true emotions behind a neutral mask. Even so, it was a near thing when her smirk almost escaped.

"Because," the elegantly-dressed female Faunus butler retorted. "This was in my size."

"But that contact of yours had lots of different uniforms!"

"None that were for the castle staff but these two."

"Blakey…" the brunette growled warningly.

The raven-haired girl almost stumbled, fearing her charade was uncovered. "Yes?"

"I'm feeling drafts up places I shouldn't be," Ruby finally sighed despondently.

"Oh… well, yes, it's a rather, er… liberal outfit."

"And why is it they wear this kinda getup?"

"Well, I'm sure it's pleasing to the residents…"

"Buncha chauvinistic…" Ruby trailed off once more in irritable grumbles. Seeing her now distracted, Blake casually fell behind a few paces.

They walked along, taking a winding staircase up, before finally arriving at the floor of the library. Ruby halted on the landing, glaring suspiciously over her shoulder.

"Are you checking me out from behind?"

"No, not at all," Blake replied stoically, having anticipated the question. "Merely ensuring nobody sneaks up behind us."

Ruby gave a noncommittal grunt before flouncing off once more, the frilled skirt that barely covered her posterior bouncing along with every step.

The Cat Faunus followed, her remorseless gaze riveted on said posterior as they traversed the final stretch towards their goal.

They paused at the double doors leading into the Royal Library. "So what's our story?" Ruby whispered. "If anyone's inside there, I mean?"

Blake shrugged unconcernedly. "We're servants. Nobody really notices us, so just look like we belong and there won't be any questions."

"Oh. Huh. Well, okay then."

The pair slipped inside, pausing at the threshold to partake in the sight of the massive room.

"Oh my Oum," the Cat Faunus breathed, awestruck.

"Yeah," Ruby murmured in return. "I don't think I've ever seen this many books in one place."

Blake gave herself a shake, her tail twitching irritably behind her. "Remember, we belong here. No gaping."

"You were gaping too!"

"Certainly not, you were the one looking like a tourist."

"Blakey, I definitely detected a decent amount of gaping from you…"

The Faunus Rogue snorted softly, adjusting the cuffs of her butler disguise. "Nonsense. Come on, let's look around."

Ruby gave her a playful glare before starting off, her rather indecent skirt flouncing about her waist. Blake had to suppress another grin as she watched her go, trailing along behind her at a… respectful distance.

And then the petite brunette paused, her head tilted to the side. The Rogue was quick to step around, glancing about cautiously before gazing at her partner's face.

Eyes of stormy grey were looking out sightlessly, flickering about while her head remained stationary. And then, after a moment, a wide smile crossed her face, and she turned to the right.

"Found it," she stated smugly.

Darting over to a rather dusty shelf, Ruby's hand hovered as it drifted along before gently extracting a rather unremarkable-looking rolled-up scroll.

Unremarkable, that is, until the brunette spread it out on a nearby table.

The illustrations along the edges were gloriously colored, vibrant and eye-catching. It was written in Old Valesian, an archaic font rarely found nowadays but one that Blake was fairly well conversed with due to her predication to 'collect' antiquities under contract. And her experienced eye told her that this was both quite ancient as well as extraordinarily valuable.

"Oh, this is very nice," she murmured appreciatively, amber eyes examining the exquisite detail of the sinuous Gold Dragon coiled along one edge, matching that of a Red on the other side.

"Focus, Blakey," the brunette giggled. "You're drooling."

"Am not."

"Oh, you totally are. Least now I know how to get your attention."

That certainly snapped her out of her reverie and caused her to involuntarily blush as well. The Cat Faunus cleared her throat, the ears atop of her head flattened in embarrassment.

"So this is definitely what we've been seeking?"

"Yup," Ruby replied, popping the end of the word as she unraveled more of the scroll. "It's kinda hard to read, though…"

"I got this," Blake replied with a smirk. "What's the name you're looking for?"

"Cindeshthyaleramathe."

The Rogue glanced up in perplexion. "How do you spell that? How can you even pronounce that?"

Ruby laughed softly before giving her the letters, using the common language. "The other name you might see is Embalytherionyz."

"Embal…" Blake jerked upright, startled. "Wait. Are those Dragon names? That last one sounded a lot like Ember…"

"Yeah, Dragons have really long names they call themselves," Ruby admitted quietly. "They use shorter, easier names, kinda like nicknames, both for themselves in casual conversation and for non-Dragons to address them. So, Embalytherionyz is Ember, and his mate's name is Cindeshthyaleramathe. I don't know her common name, though."

"Very well, then," Blake murmured, returning to her perusal of the manuscript once more. She pushed to the back of her head the curiosity over how exactly this alluring brunette knew so very much about Dragons, attributing it to her aforementioned copious reading on the subject.

"I think…" The Rogue narrowed her eyes, scanning a paragraph. "Yes, I see both names, and that of a location… Mountain Glen?"

"Might be a landmark near the lair…" Ruby breathed excitedly. "Does it give directions?"

"Yes, conveniently enough, from Vale itself."

"Finally something goes easy for us!" the brunette exclaimed. "Here, there's parchment right over… yeah, this'll do, want me to write them down?"

"I can do it," Blake replied nonchalantly, taking both parchment and pen from Ruby's hands. She began to write in small but precise script the directions, not noticing the very wide grin on her companion's face. Once she was finished, she blew on the paper gently to help dry the ink while reverently rolling the manuscript back up again. Not with some small regret, she placed the scroll back next to the brunette.

"I suppose we have to leave this here?" she asked wistfully.

"Yes, yes we do, my little thief," Ruby giggled. "It's not ours to take."

"But Ruby, do you have any idea the amount of lien I could get for that… I know just the right fence too, he'd only take a small cut off the-"

"No, Blakey."

"Fine," she pouted, standing up and crossing her arms while Ruby returned the manuscript to its original location. Her mood improved as she watched her companion flounce away, but stilled her visage back into her customary neutrality once she'd turned back around.

"So, I'm kinda surprised you're so literate," the brunette started softly as she carefully rolled up the parchment containing their directions. "I mean, it's not like I didn't think you would be, just… You have really nice penmanship, and the way you could read that…"

"Oh." Blake glanced down at her feet shyly. "Well, yes, er… I'm actually quite the voracious reader. Learned my letters while growing up on the street, just by… borrowing… books from marketplace vendors." She shrugged, glancing up to see Ruby regarding her with interest. "It's one of the things that Adam found useful when he recruited me."

"Ooooh, now there's a new name," Ruby giggled. "Sooo… who's Adam?"

"I'd… rather not get into that. Yet. But, yes, reading and writing has been a bit of a passion of mine, I know it's unusual in a simple Rogue…"

"Hey." Blake was once again drawn to those shimmering pools of silver that always seemed to suck her right in. "For one, there's nothing simple about you. And for another…" The brunette grinned, and Blake suddenly noticed the very slight but adorable dimples that formed in her cheeks when she did so. "Well, I think it's awesome how well-read you are. Yet another attractive quality about you."

"Oh," the Cat Faunus breathed, dumbfounded.

"Right, well, let's get out of here!" Ruby chirped, turning to move towards the exit. "We got what we came for!"

"Right," Blake repeated softly, once again pushing her confusing feelings and thoughts to the side and following her partner in crime.

As the pair silently slipped out of the library, neither one noticed the softly-glowing rune that lit up above the doorway once they'd exited.

o o o

They almost made a clean escape.

Halfway down the final corridor, however, another maid slipped out of a side room. The young Faunus woman had tawny hair with matching Fox ears and fluffy tail, but she gave them both a respectful nod as she passed. She paused, however, her eyes narrowed at Ruby's attire.

For her part, Ruby was looking at her just as suspiciously. Or rather, at her decidedly less-skimpy outfit that covered her quite modestly.

The Fox Faunus gave a dismissive sniff as she walked away, nose in the air.

"Blakey?"

"Er… Yes, Ruby?"

"I don't think I'm wearing an appropriate maid's outfit."

"That's… entirely possible, yes." Blake prayed that the other girl wouldn't notice the trail of sweat upon her brow as she worked very hard to keep the charade going.

"In fact… I think this just might be a streetwalker's outfit."

"Oh, really?" the Cat Faunus squeaked. "You think so?"

"Yes Blakey, yes I do," the brunette growled, turning and flouncing furiously down the corridor towards their exit point.

"Oh, well… I suppose I shall have to have a few… irate words with my contact."

"You do that," she replied with a snarl. "'Cause I might just eviscerate him if I see him again."

Blake nodded amicably as she trailed behind, capturing the visage of her companion's backside one more time for further reference. Perhaps in a nice dream or two.

Worth every lien, she thought to herself smugly.

A/N: Blake, you sneaky little Rogue you… So, some more about Dragons has been slipped in, in particular about their names. I see those gears turning, come on now, if you haven't gotten there already you should be close by now…

So, I've finished with the full outline. As it stands now, so long as I don't have to break chapters up or merge them, this story should have 37 chapters spread out over 4 volumes. It's gonna be one hell of a ride, and hopefully by the end you all don't hate me for the rollercoaster of feels.

Hugs for my tenacious Betas, KellyConnely and PandaAnimeLover, and much love for my readers, favoriters, followers, and reviewers. This story continues to grow in readership, which is all kinds of awesome. (122 followers and almost as many reviews! W00t!) I hope you all continue to enjoy the journey, this is the kind of adult gritty fantasy story, with the right amount of fluff and humor, that I've always wanted to write. I just hope I manage to give justice to the ideas I've laid out.
