From his initial encounter with the Fae woman named Kalika, his eyes were opened to many facts and reasons about the school. The horrors. The secrets. The creatures. It all made sense. The people with their gifts or curses outnumbered those who were considered 'have nots' but it did not discourage the man who wanted to dig deeper into the bulge of information. He started with background information on the school, and then working outwards towards reading about folklore concerning vampires, lycanthropes (he was corrected that werewolves and lycanthropes were two different things), and who the mysterious founders of the school were. He found out who the mysterious lady was that fed her vampire blood, Allis C., who reopened the school for unlisted reasons. From his guestimations, she was a powerful vampire turned over a decade back. But from what or how, he wouldn't know... as her information was not only limited, but not of his major concern. But he dug deeper into the information about lycans and their history, studying their background information. But most of the information was vague, stretching from being able to transform into 30 foot tall creatures to being able to turn into wolves who roam the night.
The creatures that killed his parents were neither human nor wolf. It was a hybrid, a mix.
Once he had read all the online articles of fan fics, fan sites, and fan....crap on this movie called Twilight he about had enough searching wildly for information he could not find. Even Kalika was holding off on the information he sought, blue balling him every step of the way. Hell, she didn't even try to charm him, which seemed to be her favorite trick in the book. She only changed his bandages, made sure the wound wasn't infected and he wasn't having seizures, and sent him on his way. He couldn't even get a damn side conversation out of her. But in her eyes, he would easily see that she was just making him wait. Making him suffer. She seemed to, at least to him, enjoy the fact that the lack of knowledge made him feel powerless. He understood this kind of tactic, so he never budged past the points of asking directly. He knew if he were to try to pin her for information, torture her, or bribe her for the information then he would lose what little edge he had. Nevertheless, the sleepless nights and dead ends began to take a toll on his body and soul. He was reaching his breaking point, every single day. There was only so many days left before he would have to ask Kalika, and see what she had in store for him. The vibes he was getting from her all spelled BAD, so she was his last resort.
So he was in the restrictive section of the library. First time being here, he would roam around the books shelves and examine the scenery with a bit of marveling and awe. It was in the corner of the library, so he didn't notice it until he worked his way from front to back. But many of the books in this section were old or behind protected glass. Course, he could open up any lock with his set of lock picks... but he remembered Kalika mentioning that he was messing with otherworldly forces. So he would prefer to pick the locks unless it was absolutely necessary, otherwise he might risk some kind of magical blindness or erectile dysfunction. That... last part would definitely suck.
But walking through one of the aisles, a familiar title caught his eye. Taking a step towards it, he noticed a book titled Celtic Folklore in a leather bound cover. It was big, old, and dusty. Tilting his head rather curiously, he smiled and said "Hmm... this seems like a good start. " Grabbing the book, he would find a table in the empty part of the library and begin to skim through the pages. It was surprising, as many of the pages were hand written, which surprised him because the date of the book was circa 1600s. It seemed like a personal diary than a published works. But when he was skimming the pages, he found a word he was not looking for. Like a blinking neon sign, he read the word aloud "Fae history and folklore..." He would put his eyes towards the pages and begin to read the contents, working his way down and becoming completely drawn into the work.
