*Tom has been watching Midnight go threw the books when he spys the titles of the 2 books concernd with The Alzans he reacts diffreently to each title.*
The Anotomy of The Alzan Race and Wars
"Hmmm a very comprensive book deatials theose Wars in great detail. Not very much on Alzan pre-history though when we were just known as ZEENS.
But I digress from the situation at hand."
*He reacts completly diffently to the other book.*
Alzan Modern History: The Civil War-The Missing Regent.
"Oh you have no wish to read that Midnight, a load of clap trap some of it and of no baering on the matter at hand."
*Wishes he hadn't said anything as this is only likely to induce curisoity.*

*Midnight looks up slightly curious..
*Thinks* missing regent....hmmmm interesting. Something to ask about....later on
*But her reply is different.* I wish to read neither in detail especially the first. I'm sure you can understand why.

*Thinks he is safe.*
"I quite understand. Fully Midnight. Now we have to work out where we could get that info we need from. Surely there must be a source somewhere. No race has not got some recordes remaing."

It's a stumper....
Seems a shame really, I mean you two must have grown up surrounded by your history, from what I know of the Watchers you weren't ones to forget....
Diana: Zeph... what about race memory?
*Zeriphel grins*
Diana, you are a genius! Of course, race memory projection!
*Zeph mutters some more of his chaos words, energy plays along his resonator and over his hands and eyes....*
*Then, several things appear in the room with small pops*
*A series of plush, red velvet chairs*
*Small sweets and popcorn fall from the sky*
*An elaborate and ornate projector materialises at one end of the room*
*Then Zeriphel leaps over to a wall, and pulls a projector screen down out of thin air*
Now... to find the race memory in here... hold still.
*Before the bemused Midnight has a chance to react, Zeriphel has reached over to her ear and, with the skill of a conjuror producing flags of all nations, pulls a long length of film from her ear and threads it into the projector.*
I know he ain't exactly in a good mood at the moment... but maybe Coriolis should see this too...
*Zeph dims the lights and starts to wind up the projector*

*Coriolis had been standing outside the door for several minutes. He could sense Rhiannon and he smiled, the connection was back but he also knew the Alzan was in there. With a determined sigh he opened the door.*
Indeed I should Zeph.
*He threw a look at the Alzan and then walked over and sat next to Rhiannon slightly amused at her puzzled face. In his normal tone...*
This should be interesting Rhiannon I didn't realise you took any history of our race in.....
*With his wry grin he picks up several sweets and turns his attention to the screen waiting for the film to begin.*

*Midnight rolls her eyes and turns to Coriolis.*
Well at least I took something in....unlike someone I know...
*She raises a eyebrow at him. It was good to have the link back she settled into the new comfier chairs. Though she knew he still hurt and knew that not far below that familiar sarcastic, wry grinning surface anger was there and she knew it was going to take a hell of a lot of patienc, determination and probably a few more fights to keep the tiger inline reguarding Tom. She felt it would be possible though she also saw them two arguing a lot. She realised she had yet to tell him that Tom would be joining their little duo*
*Thinking of duo she remembers the little Moogle she wondered where she was, whether she was ok and what she was up to if anything. With a sigh she put the thought of her aside for now. Though she wanted to find Mog badly she also knew she had to do other things first. After all she couldn't find little Mog if she was killed by the Alzan Assasin or Hakonatu.*
*She watches as the others get settled down and waits for the history lesson to begin.*

*Zeytan also watched in great intrest.*
"This should make for some intresting viewing."
*Malark just looks at the whole scene looking very confused, he scuttuls up to Midnight and up on to her shoulder and looks in the ear that Zeph pulled the film out of then looks blankly at her, then back in the ear. Then he scuttuls around to the other ear and looks in and then at Midnight and then he scratches his head with one of his pincers.*

*Midnight watched poor Malrak as he scuttled back and forth over her shoulders. With a small smiles she picks him up and places him on her lap.*
I wouldn't worry about it Marlark. It's magic. Something few understand...me being one of them.
*She gently strokes his head.*
Just get comfy and watch the film....

*With the clickety-clack sound made by early projectors, the film begins to roll, the screen counts down 3... 2.... 1....*
Voiceover: From the Company that brought you the Saga of Scareye...
*A brief clip of Scareye and Rob's battle*
And the tale of the Hunt...
*A clip of the young Rhiannon and Coriolis*
Dreamscape productions bring to you...
The Race Memory of Arios!!
*The style changes to a black-and-white newsreel with a BBC voiceover*
So here we are on the lovely planet of Arios. Fine real estate, the perfect place for a new race at the dawn of their carrer. Early Ariosians...
*Zeph gets up and spools forward a bit*
Zeriphel: Don't suppose that your cave days are very interestin'! Ah, here we are...
*Zeph stops the film, and it fades into colour as the main feature begins*

*Malark nesseled himself in to Midnight's lap and watched the film with intrest. He found Midnights lap to be very comfortable.*
*Malark got board during the trailers and blue some multicoulored bubles to keep himself ammused. When the film started he watched it. He was enjoying it and got annyoed when Zeph spooled the tape along and blew a red bubble at him.*

*With a amused expression Midnight says.*
Marlark thats not very nice!! Believe me it's best off with Zeph doing that. We may be here a long time if he didn't....a very, very, very long time and besides there probably half a ton of junk in there to that I'll of picked up along the way...
*She says this with a smile and watches as the scene of her history unfolds.*
(OCC: Watching the film in: The Watcher's History.)

*With more than a hint of John Peel doing one of his 'Classic machines' Documentaries The images shifts to a small but rapidly growing settlement. The buildings are made from a mixture of mud and Logs but already exhibit an amazing amount of craftsmanship.*
[Voiceover] may I welcome.... The 'Zaan".... A simple and primative race at best.
*The image shifts to show a young family at work... The Father appears to planing an elongated Log into the shape of a basic canoe. Alongside him, a much younger boy is avidly whittling away at some kind of sculpture across the boats bow. The figurehead is already beginning to appear similar to a girl a few feet away from him, She's busy stitching a net together using some kind of needle made from bone. Her fingers are moving at a tremendous pace but her skill is sloppy...*

*Tom looks blankly at the screen in confusion, then turns to zeph.*
"Zeph old boy I think your magic has gone ascew again."
"The Zaan Race is what The Alzan's are desended from."

*The scene slowly moves on. The family slowly progress and a scene of the bigger settlement is seen changing and forming. The girl and boy start to grow up...but other changes happen. Bigger and better buildings are built. *
Voiceover: The Zaans quickly progressed in most areas of learning. They build buildings for discussion, debate, for training in war, defending and also spirituality.
