In the Spirit Medium Parlor late at night, the sound of pages turning never ceased.
Two kerosene lamps and a tall candle on a pedestal allowed Arthur to clearly see every character on the pages.
For two whole days, Arthur had not left No. 2 Cork Street.
He had pored over the two tomes from the toad's legacy with a thirst for knowledge.
No!
He should address the other more formally as Graham.
Through the two tomes, Arthur not only learned the other's name but also became acquainted with his life story.
Graham was born on September 3, 1713, in Yamorton, a small town located further north of North County, near Yemoged, where tall redwoods were the main produce. The town was covered with snow all year round, and it was home to many ferocious beasts. Graham's parents were killed by these wild animals, after which he sold his sisters for a good price and took up employment as a Tomb Guardian.
Of course, being a Tomb Guardian was far from what Graham wanted.
