Korlian shrugged, "I don't have money. Never did," he said.
"Isn't the Hobbit the first story or something?"

"Technically The Silmarillion is, chronologically," Joelle told him. "It takes places thousands of years before The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. The Hobbit was just the first story to be published. Then you have all the History of Middle-Earth books, which I've never been able to find, much less read, and Unfinished Tales. They're all full of side-stories that intertwine with the rest, and first drafts and ideas of the stories. Oh, and there's The Children of Hurin too. And then all of the other, non-Middle-Earth-related stories. I've only read one or two of them."

Korlian shrugged. "I'm not that interested. It's just another story, and I already know hundreds. And isn't The Children of Hurin an expansion on a story in The Silmarillion?"
He was rapidly losing interest in this conversation, as he had her poem. It had been an idle observation, anyway.

Joelle nodded. She wondered what time it was; probably well past eight by now, which meant curfew wasn't far away.
"Do you have the time?" she asked Korlian. "It wasn't long before eight when I last checked, which was shortly before you came along, and we've been here for a while. We should probably both get to bed."

Korlian shook his head. "You're probably right. Though I thought vampires didn't sleep..."
He shrugged. "Imma get a snack from Rhythan before I go. It was nice to meet you," he said.

"True, but we still have to obey curfew," Joelle told him with a smile, standing up and picking up her notebook and pencil. "Nice meeting you too, Korlian. Goodnight."
She turned and headed out of the mess hall, glancing up at the first clock she passed. Yup, it was getting close to eight-thirty. She quickened her pace a bit, hurrying toward her dorm for another oddly quiet, Aritha-less night.
