Sartorius

History
Sartorius began The Aqueous Atheneum in the Sunbeam Ruins. He met Niniane there at a huge annual hoard sale. He was debating the purchase of a tattered scroll from an eccentric old dragon who was in charge of the sale. The old pearlcatcher insisted that the scroll in question was handwritten by the author and VERY rare. He wanted an enormous amount of treasure for it even though it had been left to rot in the back of his lair for ages. Niniane was considering a variety of gold jewelry not all of which was a high quality. Sartorius had decided against the scroll just as Niniane was walking away from the junk jewelry. A large bad tempered coatl nearly trampled him and then proceeded on a tirade that included calling him vermin! VERMIN! Then a huge shadow loomed over the pair, and Sartorius was scooped up and deposited onto the back of the great grey, red and gold guardian. She moved into the personal space of the coatl and insisted on a lengthy and sincere apology. Sartorius had to fly up to grasp the horn of the guardian so he could get a better view. The coatl began to humm, and Niniane began a rumbling growl. The coatl had a quick change of attitude and begged forgiveness of Sartorius, his family and even his pet. Sartorius was estatic and immediately asked the lovely guardian if she would care to join him for a meal. They ended up talking all day, and then into the night. By morning he had found a friend with whom he would begin to build a life and a home. A place for dragons to nurture their thirst for knowledge or simply escape to another world for a few hours. He smiled to himself that morning and every one since and exclaimed, "Life is good!"
