Galideno Central Library, Records & Archives
A large library which takes up the entirety of floors three, four and five. Shelves upon shelves of books from all over the nation and more are located here. There is also a section where Record Keepers and Archivists work, to archive and organize the contained knowledge of the world.
Iris had an arm full of files, in a mousy manner she tries to take on an entire load that is taller than her own vision! Her right cheek pressing against the leaning folders and binders as she ambles her way around the vast library, hoping that one of the loading carts to peddle the books were nearby so she could have a break. "S-sorry," "E-excuse me," "Pardon me", "Sorry, p-passing through!" She would say to others as she walked by them or almost bump into them. She felt her little heart beat like a jack rabbit, the suspense of loosing all these files made her stomach knot up and her throat tighten. Her thighs felt clenched together, and she knew she was wearing a frown due to the pent up anxiety. Don't trip, don't fall... I really, really don't want to pick anything up! Curse me... I should have taken less! I'm in no hurry, you silly, silly girl... she told herself, mentally beating herself up for her hindsight. She did however, want to go up to the 20th floor to grab a cup of tea and perhaps take a small break to light up a cigarette, but she would have to wait till she delivered the files in her possession to Archives 2200-2250 first.

As Iris rounded the corner, she bumped into ONE of TWO supervisors she had working here, both being brothers; this one was the younger brother, Damien Holden. Papers and files fell from the Elven woman's hands, but Damien did his best to collect what he could before they'd fall out of of their respective folders.
A small pile did empty onto the floor unfortunately, and the man bent down to collect what had been spilled.
"Ms. Lovecrest," Damien started, as he grabbed one of the folders. "I've told you time and again, take what you can carry. My brother and I have not set any deadlines for you Ms. Lovecrest, unless Edward told you otherwise..." he shrugged. "I swear Ms. Lovecrest, you'd shoulder the entire planet if you were able." he finished as he took one of the spilled paperwork and looked it over, to check if it corresponded with the folder in his hand, when a photograph fell from between the folds.
He paused, looking down at it before he grabbed it, brushing the dusty thing off. "Oh my..." he says softly to himself. It was a photograph taken nearly 74 years ago, containing rare imagery of the founding members of the T.I.R.S., including the President who acted as it's Director:
2208, Gailden. "The Founders of the T.I.R.S., the Red 5ive" [Top Row] Jr. Agent Lucretia Renston, Jr. Agent Zero Kurakawa [Bottom Row] Sr. Agent Hades Valentine, Director & President Rufus-Alexander Tenik, Sr. Agent and R&D Scientist Steven Chesluk
"This... shouldn't be here..." he says without realizing it, looking at it a bit longer than he wanted to, still amazed by the rare find.

Iris blushed, looking left to right hastily to place the rest of the files down so she could help her supervisor. "S-sorry, let me help Sir!" She nervously replied, finding a trolley to place the files on not too far behind Mr. Holden. She rounded the assistant supervisor and placed the files down before she hunkered down beside Damien, to help collect the files she spilled. "N-no, he hasn't I just to help, and speed things along..." she said with a frown, before she blinked, her large purple eyes glancing upon the photo in Damien's hands. She noted how her boss looked pensive at the sight of the faded sepia coloured photo, it looked like one of those ancient cameras that physically sketched what it caught in its lens, an unorthodox method for the time, but it was when the world was adapting to the technological age. She leaned over her supervisor's shoulder, to garner a greater vantage point. "What's that?" she asked, noting the the images and then the text, her eyes catching 'T.I.R.S.' and a few of the names in her single, glance over.

Damien blinked, turning abruptly to Iris. "Oh, this, f-forget it." he says as he slid it into the papers once again and the papers into a file marked for 2208. "As for your help, I appreciate your enthusiasm Ms. Lovecrest, but you shouldn't try to take more than you can carry. Take it easy, and know we are here to help if needed." He says with a smile, standing up with the files in his hand. "Ms. Lovecrest, may I ask where you were moving these files from by chance?" he inquired.

Iris felt like she was being kept in the dark, and for the kept the rather suspicious actions carried out by Damien to herself. She bowed her head, shrugging her shoulders again, nodding solemnly as he continued. When they were finished, both were standing, Iris placing the files on the trolley again when Damien Holden made her turn to her. "What? Oh from the fifth floor's east wing. I was told by Edward to move them as the company is going to be renovating that section soon, due to water damage." She blinked, cocking her head to the right. "Did your brother not tell you this, Sir?" she asked. Seemed like it. Seemed like she wasn't the only one being kept in the dark these days.

Damien shuffled in his stance a little, looking away with a look of abashment. "Ah, I...see. *Ahem* Well, then. Ms. Lovecrest, how about you take a fifteen minute break. Grabbing all these dusty files might cause latent allergies, so how about you get some fresh air while I put these away, since I already have an issue with dust bunnies." he says in an easygoing manner. "And before you protest, just... go, go get yourself some coffee or pastries before the rest of the staff take advantage of it, especially those 'hounds' on the 40th floor. You remember how my brother and the rest of the T.I.R.S. lot were with the spaghetti bolognese at last Fall's luncheon." he said sounding slightly perturbed by the memory.

Iris blinked. "O-okay..." she started, nodding slightly as she looked at him with a puzzled look. Something was up between the brothers Holden, and she wasn't entirely sure if she wanted to find out what. She liked the current job she had, and didn't want to compromise it over her curiosity getting the best of her. "Well, just a fair warning... this is only my first trip, Sir." she says before bowing respectfully, her lavender side locks hanging as she did so. "Thank you for taking over for the time being," she replied, readjusting herself, looking at him evenly with a smile before she headed for one of the elevators. Once one arrived, she huddled in with other employees and made her way, slowly but steadily, to floor 20 where the staff cafeteria was.

He shrugged, feinting a smile as he waved her off. "Thank you for the heads up Ms. Lovecrest!" he called out, smiling till she went up the glass elevator shaft, vanishing through the fifth floor ceiling. He suddenly frowned, his eyes filled with worry. "We are having renovations on the fifth floor's east wing? I don't recall Edward telling me of any of this..." he says softly before looking at the musty and dusty yellowed folders and files. He slapped the files in his hands down with the others and began to direct the trolley to his office where he'd look through what had been removed from the east wing, a section that was generally off limits to the public, hence why the dust. "Hmm... Perhaps Edward just hasn't reached out to me yet... Admittedly I do have a big mouth... Gods damn him... he took that last plate of Bolongese at that party..." he began to grumble incoherently at the last bit, thinking of the luncheon last fall as he rolled the cart to his office.

Re: Galideno Central Library, Records & Archives
Iris, after her fresh encounter with the T.I.R.S. Agent Grimoire Valentine, quickly made haste to the Central Library and frantically made a dash for the door of her supervisors. I've worked here for so long, and never been late for anything, and today of all days is my first tardy! She suddenly smiled at the thought, almost giggling while she hurried for the door at a brisk, walking pace. But it was totally worth it. Mr. Valentine is definitely unlike the other T.I.R.S. Grunts I've met. Plus, he was fun to talk to. Heh, I hope he can figure out my name. It should be rather simple given the clues I had given him, plus my handkerchief. I think today will not be the last time we shall meet, that Mr. Grimoire Valentine and I! She giggled, flustered slightly as she opened the door to the office, and quickly changed her demeanour to that of solemn apology. "E-excuse me, Damien?...Edward?" she called out, entering the office. "Forgive me for taking so long, I didn't realize how long I had been away on break till the last minute. It won't happen again, I swear!" she spoke up, stepping through the expansive two level office. Files and cabinets were strewn open, and she came across the file from earlier, as well as the photo. She blinked, looking at it again. It was the 'Red 5ive', founders of the T.I.R.S.. and one name caught her eye right off the bat:
"Hades...Valentine?" She spoke out loud, sounding out the name. It was hard to make out the features of such a crude sketch-photo made by early technologies of Tenik Industrial, but there was some resemblance to Grimoire in this man's appearance. "Perhaps a close relative? Maybe his Grandfather... I was only 34 at the time, and I was still living in Izhevesk back then..." she says out loud, blinking before setting the picture back down with a pensive look upon her face.

"Ah Miss Lovecrest," started Damien's reply from above, who had just finished unpacking all the records and files his brother wanted shipped into the basement storage, or so it seemed. He would have to have a look at them before he would follow through with that order however, as he found it suspicious to some degree. "glad to hear you have returned from your extended break. Well I am willing to over look it if you can perform for me a great favor;" he continued, pausing for a moment to appear over the railing above Iris when he noticed she was looking at the photo from earlier.
He remained silent for another moment or two, extending his pause, before clearing his throat and stating: "...well may you head out to the hinterlands for me? I need you to deliver a few of these records, for safe keeping, in Jemial City." He explained as he began to descend to the same level as Iris via a ladder. He turns to her once he is down, and continues.
"I have great reason to believe that some of these files may become misplaced if they are to head into the basement. Some of these records are of great historic value, and I would appreciate you delivering them to the Bank, a man by the name of William, he's one of my men. He'll know what to do when you arrive so it it should be an easy task. I'll lend you my van to make the transition that much smoothly." he says, presenting her with a pair of keys.

She blinked at the seemingly odd request, considering she would have to drive four hours out to Jemial with company files. This was a job usually for, well, the Holdens. "Y-yeah. I don't mind doing that for you Sir. But... are you sure? I thought a transfer like this needed to be approved by the President and Director of the T.I.R.S. first. We are transferring city records after all." she continued, slowly reaching for the keys. She looked back to Damien with a raised brow and a worried face.

He nodded, taking her hand and placing the aforementioned keys within. "Yes. Well... it is for the good of Galideno that we get these transferred. I'll take the blame, but I find this safer than having them in the moldy 2nd Basement Storage Area." he continued, before he turned to help grab the boxes he needed her to deliver. "Now, help me bring these to the van. Once you get back, report to me and I'll give you the rest of the day off, Ms. Lovecrest." he explained, and began to pack the boxes onto the trolley.

Iris sighed, then silently helped her supervisor begin to load the records, even the photograph. She followed Damien Holden out, and towards the elevators again, and they headed down to the underground Staff Parking Lot.
Once there, they unloaded the boxes into the rather bland looking white van with the Tenik Industries logo on the side.

Once finished, Damien turns to Iris and smiles. "Be safe out there," he says before pointing to the glove box. "I have a loaded 7.62 Revolver in there shall anything happen between cities, but I think you'll be fine Ms. Lovecrest. You know how to use it?" he asked for a final time.

Her smile waned, but remained as she nodded. "I'll try... Yeah, I've had some experience with firearms. I'll be careful." she says with a wink. "Well, I'll see you back in eight hours, Sir!" she exclaimed, backing the van out, and then drove out of the parking lot and into the city.
