They worship the book itself? Or is the book there to guide them into better ways to live and honour their god(s)?

I've got no problem reading it. Unless it's sacrilegious to do so. Could be interesting.

[eyeforaneye]

The second one. As I said, I'm still studying, but a few things are apparent.

In that case, that'll be the condition. Read at least one chapter of one of the books, and I'll tell you where the church is located. In that way I'll know you're approaching it seriously.

[kawarimi]

Alright, you have a deal. I'll even read it without using the sharingan.

( DOUBLES DOWN )

Can I find it online or do you have a physical copy for me?

[eyeforaneye]

I have a physical copy but it isn't for you.

Figure it out.

[kawarimi]

Why not? Knowing you, you've already memorized the entire book, and I always liked holding the real thing in my hands.

But if you insist, I'll do what I have to.

You'd better have that address ready.

[eyeforaneye]

I need a copy for my own regular reference.

So I do insist, so you will do what you have to.

I'll have the test ready on what you've read.

[kawarimi]

A test, huh?

Short answer/long answer? Essay? Multiple choice? Or... a practical?

[eyeforaneye]

That depends on which parts you choose to read. Some aren't suited to a practical.

[ Please don't destroy a city. ]

[kawarimi]

I'll be reading the part you indicated.

Unless you want to move the bar again. You know that if you asked me to read the whole thing, I would.

( it's just something else for them to bond over... the investment of time is worth it. )

[eyeforaneye]

Don't accuse me of that. I told you you could read any chapter of any book. [ He pauses, realizing only just now how confusing that is without any knowledge of the bizarre text currently in his hand. ]

A "book" is one section of the overall book. [ ugh... ]

Though if you're planning to read the entire thing then my test will expand to measure up. I won't accept any level of failure from you.

[kawarimi]

( it figures that the whole thing has more layers than the surface suggests. the same goes for the one who wants him to learn it.

this challenge means a lot more to him than he's willing to admit. )

I hadn't planned to fail again.

Bring it on.

[eyeforaneye]

[ "Again" stands out to him, and he ponders it longer than he's willing to admit. The conversation, he also notices belatedly, was enjoyable.

He doesn't know what to do with either realization. ]

Fine. Tell me when you're ready.
