Ey girl, you ever been with a haunted tent?

Ok. So this was not how Mnem planned for things to go. Wincing at the sound of the alarm, and then frowning at the incoming dragon golems, she whirls around to look at Sig.

"Think you can hold them off while we figure something out?"

She doesn't wait for a reply, instead turning to face Rabi, who has already run off to do his wolf thing. Ah, of course. She runs up behind him, and digging into her pocket pulls out the scrap meant to help them find the grimoire.

"Alright. Sniff this out while I handle the alarm..."

With that Mnem whips out her wand and starts to trace complex patterns in the air, chanting softly and steadily in some dead language. There was no going back now. If they didn't get this done quick they'd get caught by whoever comes down to investigate. But she could at least try to shut this bloody alarm off. She just has to "pick apart" the enchantment,,, or rather, "burn it"...

@Mnem: 2d6+2 Channeling = (4+6)+2 = 12

Gained 3 holds that last until spent. Spending 1 hold to destroy the alarm.

"What the hell?" Mnem knew coming into here there'd be some strange sights to behold but still... she's floored. And intrigued. If they had more time perhaps she could slip into some of these side rooms and explore but time isn't a luxury they have in bulk right now. Best to stay the course and not screw this up.

"Bingo." She says to Rabi once they arrive in the room of swirling bookshelves, eyes focused on what's clearly the prize straight ahead. "I'd say that's our grimoire."

She then makes for it, stopping when she gets right up close and personal with it. It almost seems surreal. And too easy. But, she places a tentative hand on it, then grabs it completely.

Mnem feels the knowledge flood into her, and it takes everything not to just completely lose control. Biting down on her tongue, she shuts her eyes and focuses on keeping everything together.
