The next day Arnold started preparing to leave to city black, he took all the food he needs and he fed his horse. His sister was not happy that he is already traveling alone so soon but she couldn't do anything about that.
Arnold didn't signed up for this it just came suddenly, Alex also needed him by his self because he was very smart and intelligent, he advises Alex in many occasions and he stood with Alex in many hard decision. Alex was also not happy but that's their fate and it must be done.
Some leaders in their clan was there to say goodbye to him as he takes his leave, Alex whispered to him and said "any information you have don't forget to write a letter to me" and he nodded firmly. He took off and left for city black, it was still snowy and cold but he continued his journey.
When he got to his city great gate, they opened it as he approached the gate. Some people which he may know in the city gate wished him luck as he leaves. He continued moving till he got to the desert where he rested a little and fed his horse, after resting he stand up and continue moving. That continued for two days and indeed it was a stressful journey, when he got there he came down from his horse and he needed to use the boat because the library it's located in the middle of the river. It was a very tall tower and big library, he was happy that he finally got to see the great library.
He met a man whose job is to take people across the river and paid him to sail him to the library, as they where in the boat he was just starring at the building in astonishment. When he entered the man sitting as the receptionist there is a very strict man, Arnold was feeling weird by the way the receptionist gazed at him and he said "my name is Arnold and i came here in search of a book to seek solution of what is coming".
The man starred at him a little and ask where he came from which he did answer, he was later directed to the room he would be staying for the main time. The next day, he was given a white cloth which he would be wearing inside the library, he started working there and any book the librarian needed he is the one to look for it. They also treat people who has strange and rare diseases in the library, he is also responsible for the diseased, for the once that can't stand up, a bed was built for them to dump on and he is the one to dispose the dump everyday.
It wasn't easy for him though but he managed to continue doing it, there was a restricted area in the library where anyone isn't allowed to go to except the librarian, it was always locked and even as soon as the librarian enters he immediately lock it. One day Arnold and the librarian was looking for a book, luckily they got to the area that was restricted.
He asked the librarian politely if he can lend him the key to the locked room but he turned down his request boldly, this made him furious and he determined that he must enter the restricted room.
He continued to read more books to find the weapon which can kill the dead walkers, it was late in the night and everyone was asleep apart from him so he decided to sneak into the librarian room to steal the key and it was a success. When he entered the restricted room he came across various kinds of books, he continued to search about the dead walkers and luckily he found a book and he hurriedly put the book into his shirt, locked the library immediately and returned the key to the librarian room where he took it from.
He took the book to his room and continued to read it, he began to feel sleepy but he didn't give up because the dead walkers is coming soon, after long search he go to the place that said the only thing that can kill the dead walkers is dragon stone and fire. He immediately wrote a later informing Alex what he discovered and what is about to come.
When Alex saw the later he went into thinking because there was only one sword made with dragon stone in their kingdom, he also wrote back to Arnold to find a map leading to its location.
The next day Alex and James started their travel for peace keeping in other for them to fight in unity.
