"This is the 1000-year-old Calonia pitcher. And this tablet dated back over two millennia. And this is where Bow played pretend as a little boy." Lance pulled away the curtain and there was stuffed animals and everything. It was adorable.

"Let me guess, playing pirates?" Glimmer asked.

"Oh, no. Bow doesn't like pirates. Playing historian, getting ready to take over the library even then. Right, Bow?"

"Right." Bow responded. I wished I had grown up like Bow did. He's so lucky that he gets to take over this amazing place.

"Mr. Bow's Dad, sir, as First Ones HIstORianS, do you know anything about the lore of She-Ra?" Adora asked. Someone's definitely needs to teach her how to talk to adults.

"Ah... Great question. Accurate translations are hard to come by but we thing the name was actually, Her-Ra." I almost broke out laughing but I kept it together.

"Well, that's not right." Adora said

"But you don't know that for sure, Adora." Bow said nervously.

"But I do." Everyone looked at me. "I mean I am majoring in history. Her name was actually She-Ra. She'd fight for the honor of Grayskull. And rode on a Pegasus."

"Well, I don't doubt your knowledge. But I am sure on one thing. She rode on a dragon, not a Pegasus." He pointed towards a vase where She-Ra was riding a dragon.

Adora immediately ran up to the vase. "Wait, she got a dragon? I wish I had a—" Bow rapped his arm around Adora and laughed nervously.

"Anyway, uh, where was I."

"Princess nonsense," George responded. He pulled on this rope and curtains revealed a gem.

"The rune stone shard. It's the oldest First Ones object in our collection." I felt this weird connection to it but let it go. "But enough about us. Tell us about your studies, Adora, Glimmer, and Claire."
