Giggles. A ghost shyly peeks out from the wall; seeing company, it flies out into the room. "Hi!" Its voice indicates "it" to be a female..and a little sprightly one. She smiles and considerately moves out of Olyria's way. "My name's Allie. Have you been here long?"

She flies in two complete circles before settling down again. "Please, come in." A big smile. "I'm the 'Tower Ghost' -- since the Towerkeeper was nice enough to adopt me from the Agency over a year ago.

"Time flies so fast! I really like it up here.. Not because it's dark, mind you. Olyria or the one of the Sisters always makes sure the candles are lit; but there's just so much stuff up here to look through--even after a year! When I moved in, I was thinking that an an old place like this would have at least a couple of its own ghosts..." She started to fidget, going 'round in circles again.

"Oh, sorry. I can't stay still when I'm excited," she admitted sheepishly. Allie forced herself down. "As I was saying, the Towerkeeper said something that like, too.. Well, I haven't found any other ghosts, myself, but I did find some stories about other ghosts..

"The Sisters liked that; they would ask me to tell them when I watch them work, and sometimes I even tell them to Gabby!" She laughs. "That's a funny dog. And the Towerkeeper says there are probably more stories for me to find.. I hope so."

She smiled mischeviously.
