>"Convince me."
>"I get the impression that could be a difficult task." Celes says wryly. "But very well, I will tell you. I fear that Marisa may have accidentally stolen a relic from a darker time. You see, the Countess was not the first vampire to reside in this Keep. The previous owner was a being of unparalleled evil, and exceptional magical powers. He seeded this Keep with traps, seemingly innocuous items, sometimes even a blade of grass, each one capable of bringing death, or sometimes worse, to anyone unwary enough to activate them. On top of these, there are other... objects, of his creation, that remain within the Keep. Not traps, per se, but they can cause grievous harm if used incorrectly. Not only to the one who uses it, but anyone in the vicinity, potentially. We have tried to gather all of these items, disarm these traps, but even now, we are sure we haven't located them all."
>Celes pauses to led you absorb this information. "If Marisa was here before we awoke, if she stole a book from our library that happened to be one of these objects, she could be in deadly danger. As could anyone who comes after her."
