Faust was rather pleased with how things had gone with Truce, despite the dire nature of what they had been discussing. Once the Councilor was gone however he turned his attention back to his Curator. "It was my intention to turning the brunt of my attention in the coming months towards securing the Athenaeum and adding my studies to it's stores. If we're actually looking at a problem of Banisher's being able to remove souls however. . ." the demonologist trailed off to emphasize the danger it posed. "I'm the only one in the Concilium able to reattach a Soul, but I'll need both the person and their soul to do that. This may be a skill too valuable to endanger in the field where those souls might be, especially as I am not skilled in self defense. Some one else might be able to go retrieve the soul, though that would also require a certain familiarity with Spirit or Death, and as far as I know Councilor Truce is the only one here with enough understanding of Death to do it. With more study I think I could restore a Soul sympathetically, which would work so long as the soul wasn't bound to something already. Even then we would then know what it was and that item or, God forbid, person could be retrieved by those better prepared for such a situation. What I'm saying is it might be in all of our best interests for me to focus myself on study until I am capable of such a skill. I would like to take a look at this weapon first to see if I can't verify that it is in fact something we should be concerning ourselves with, but to be perfectly honest I am kind of shaken by all of this. I'm not certain I'm thinking clearly about this situation yet, and I could use some advice. You are my Curator, I trust you to weigh the consequences of leaving the Athenaeum in it's current state for such a task."
