Summary
Almost a century ago, Essek had met a person who shaped the entirety of his life. A human, disguised as a drow, somehow alive and well despite being in the very centre of the Dynasty. A brilliant wizard disguised as a merchant, somehow capable of casting dunamancy. And not just any spells - Essek didn't even know one could possess such power.
Now, standing in the shadows of the Bright Queen's throne, looking at the ragtag group in front of them, he barely kept his hands from shaking. One of the intruders, a red-haired human, looked exactly like that mysterious man from his past, but a decade or so younger.
Humans didn't live that long. And they certainly didn't age in reverse.
This was impossible.

Summary
'“Arcane researcher seeks qualified assistant. Prior experience required. Inquire at Marble Tomes Conservatory.”
If a posh researcher was posting requests in a mid level bar in the gallimaufry, they must be scraping the bottom of the barrel for candidates. That was a little worrying. It made him wonder what exactly the job entailed. Caleb had done a variety of jobs over the last few years. He’d chopped wood, brought in harvests, cleaned gutters, even worked in kitchens once or twice, and that wasn’t the worst of it. Not by a long shot.'Caleb, alone in Rosohna, takes a risky job for a mysterious employer.
The second of two prompt fills I began for the same prompt and am taking a stab at completing now, the first being 'The High Tower'.
