Brandon waited until Bryan had finished his lessons before asking him to come to the private study.
Bryan stepped inside and looked around before closing the door behind him. "Father?"
Brandon was standing beside the desk, the parchment Eldric had left behind resting in front of him. He looked at Bryan for a moment before pulling out the chair across from him.
"Come sit with me."
He walked over and sat down. Brandon remained beside the desk for another moment, his fingers resting against its edge. He had read the document several times since finding it, but the words had not become any easier to understand.
He finally picked up the parchment and looked at Bryan.
"You remember the box you found?"
He nodded. "Yes."
"This was inside it."
He placed the parchment on the desk between them. Bryan leaned forward slightly, his eyes moving over the old paper.
"What did Grandfather write?"
"Something about you."
Bryan's eyebrows lifted. "Me?"
