Matomo woke up and stretched, getting rid of the kinks in his muscles caused by the long hours with no movement. "ow!", he winced as he realised that while he slept, he had rolled onto his side, cutting off the blood flow to his left foot, and now he was experiencing pins and needles. Then he drew the 'net' back in, there was no point using it now. He reached into his bag to get some fruit and realized that they were all shriveled. He groaned, he hated dried food, it must be the exposure to the salt.
Matomo debated for a while if he should do it, it always took some energy from him and there was usually no reason to do so. When he decided that the potential gains outweighed the losses, he gathered all the fruit into one pile, on top of the pack and picked up his grimoire from where it had lain on the ground all night. He dusted off the salt coating it and started to concentrate his energy into the fruit through the book. Slowly, the fruits started filling up again and returned to their non-dried out state, even those which were under ripe or overripe, became ripe. He had been able to return 'damaged' beings to a desired state, the only limitations were that they took the same amount of energy it would take if the object in question to revert to that state, and it only worked on living things or once living, so he could not suddenly repair iron and stone tools. Sadly, it also did not work on himself. Matomo grabbed an apple from the pile and ate it as he once again opened the book on speed magic.
A while later he finished off the book on speed magic. He sat and brooded for a while, the book had not contained much due to the rarity of speed magic. He was not satisfied with what he had read and wanted to find out more. The only thing worth note was that the magic affected the molecules of the object, not the object itself, it was basically the same, but technicalities like that could always come in useful. Maybe there was a more comprehensive book somewhere in the city, but first he needed to determine how dangerous it would be for him to attempt an entrance. After all he was wanted. So he started limping towards the city, cursing the sensation in his leg.
another while later
Matomo laughed out loud, entrance to the city would be easy! the bounty on him was low and the description was vague. he didn't even need to bother hiding himself with magic, at least not after he was past the gates, then all he needed to do was shove his jacket into the pack and the eyes would do the rest of the job. Grinning for no reason at all, Matomo carried out those steps and entered the city. The only precaution he would take was to try to avoid that Sidna, thus he set out to find a library on the opposite side of the city where he had met her: towards the north district.
