Greetings. I'm Cauthrien Grace Trevelyan, the newest member of this particular crew. I'm named after a knight from Dragon Age Origins. I've actually been here for almost a month, but this is the first time any of us have had time to set up something formal. Usually Nora and I take over the reading room display, but this time we set up an open study.

Since I'm supposed to a knight, I've been *ahem* asking the human politely but forcefully for a set of plate mail and a sword. I think the crafting backlog will have cleared up by January such that I can have what I want before we all go off to the Marketplace at Birka. I also enjoy chess, martial arts, and military history. Eventually I will have a copy of Bellifortis and De Re Militaire and potentially a few swordfighting manuals.
Nora's in the corner right now with a plate of cookies and a stack of Nancy Drew books. I already know she's going to borrow my books when they arrive. Nora's like that, but she prefers politics and economics over military history. I might try to get her a copy of 'The Prince' sometime.

Next week we'll be starting our first ever papercraft-a-long, for anyone who wants a library like ours. The craft-a-long will run for 10 weeks, from October 18th to December 20th, and will give you plenty of time to make books and toys for presents. Lily starts it off with a set of fun wizarding goods, and then Nora and I will show off our books.
Please contact us at jinjia.mixed.goods AT gmail.com if you have any suggestions for future projects. We have the first 5 weeks lined up, but are always willing to entertain new project ideas for the future.
