章 75: Candle Wax

Mallory sat with the book in her hand, staring at it, before she opened it and returned to watch the memories once again. She couldn't help but repeat where she met her mother and though she tried to stay behind with her mother, the scene changed without giving her the opportunity to see what happened further. 

"I wonder if there was a way to extract memories," she murmured to herself. "And then store them."

And while she ran through the pages, she ended up on the blank ones. When she mindlessly ran her fingers across the page, she felt a coarseness under her fingertips. 

Smelling the tips of her fingers, she quickly grabbed the nearby candle stand and placed the page above the flame without letting it burn. Soon she saw writing appear on the blank page, one that belonged to her grandmother. She remarked, 

"Expect grandma to leave things hidden in plain sight."
