And there is a library!
A copy of Aesop's Fables gets produced for Iris, and is read several times over with great interest and confusion (at times), before really thinking about the opportunities.
"...Where could I find a scroll on...genetics?"

Hrm.
"Is that something you would want?"

On either of their sides, he's not so certain how helpful Raven would be for bringing Iris for a visit.

Very much, to be precise.

"When I said earlier? That I needed you to tell me, if you were going to listen.
"I don't want the Dodekatheon to know of you. It's - " Iris plays with his shirt button with two fingers. "I do not know what they can see."

"Thank you. I might be able to figure it out. I don't know quite how yet but I know how minds work."
