"Indeed Nasus as I suspect it could be old Icathia hieroglyphs, so indeed I came to translate this language. So do you have anything to translate this?"
"Be wary, Ezreal," he says. "If you are correct that the heiroglyphs are Icathian in origin, it is possible that you are being led into a trap. As I understand it, most of the Void champions entered our world there, which means they could be attempting to corrupt you."
At this point, he shakes his head and sighs.
"However, the knowledge that piece may contain could give vital clues into Icathian civilization before it crumbled. I believe my head librarian may be able to help you."
Nasus turns his head towards the entrance and sees the man standing expectantly by the entrance.
"Ah, good. There you are. Ezreal is looking for-"
"Yeah, yeah, I've been standing here for a while," the man says, interrupting the Curator in an audacious display. "Mister Ezreal, if you could come with me?"
"Sure head librarian will come along with you maybe I can finally get some answers."
Ezreal then follows the head librarian with optimism finally to unlock what these hieroglyphs were hinting at , and Ezreal turns around to Nasus to leave a comment
"Nasus I know the risks for me to continue down this path, but for the sake of archaeology I must continue. Also Nasus I am Ezreal after all I handle multiple of dangerous situations before I could handle this one trust me."

With her curiosity during her flight, Janna had come across what seemed to be a library that the Curator of the Sands has guarded. She glided down, wondering, and stepped on her boots, in her Hextech garb, where she was less likely to smudge her skin with whatever dirt she touches. She leaned down to pat a wandering scorpion from her left boot, before looking back up to see that she has landed right behind Nasus, visible to Ezreal.
"Oh!" She exclaimed, holding her mouth shut just to not interrupt the bestial being from his conversation.
Nasus nods to himself as the Explorer follows his head librarian into the Archives.
I hope that lens does not bear darker tidings.
At Janna's exclamation, Nasus whirls around, eyes blazing and staff at the ready. He immediately lowers it as he recognizes her and his eyes dim down to their usual levels.
"My apologies, Lady Janna," Nasus apologizes, bowing his head respectfully. "You startled me. What brings you to my Archives?"
The librarian nods and turns to head into the archives, motioning for Ezreal to follow him before walking in.
"I wish we had more on Icathia, but Nasus hasn't talked to the Voidwalker yet about retrieving the tomes he used to locate the city," the librarian explains as he walks. "However, what we do have should be helpful. I, as well as several others, have been attempting to translate our Icathian texts for some time, and we have made progress."
He seems to puff up proudly as he says this, clearly happy to be working on the project.

Janna backs up in fear when Nasus raised his staff at her, covering her head with her arm. Her eyes tensed to a closure, and her teeth bared to brace her from the coming attack. And then she was apologised to, and realised that she had just startled the Curator. She gave an awkward smile. "Oh," she said, "I was just flying southwards to see how the Southern winds go, but then I spotted a large shadow on the desert, and it was you."
She shyly clamped her hands on her back, composing her gesture again.
"I..." she paused for a short moment, "I apologise I have startled you, Curator, sometimes it becomes a habit for me to not look where I'm landing."
Ezreal follows the head librarian into the archives in which information over Icathia should be held. Upon entering the room he see less then he would like of books, documents, and etc. in the archives. Yet it is Icathia is truly a unknown land which few ever witness before so it was understandable. Hearing the head librarian reveal there have been progress deciphering Icathia made Ezreal glad he chosen the right place.
"Glad to hear that head librarian now let's start decipher this lens, and hope it can lead to something significant for archaeology, or give me another chance for me to explore another area."
The librarian carefully takes the lens from Ezreal with a nod of thanks. Following the Explorer's advice, he gently places the device over his ear so that the lens covers his right eye.
Almost immediately, hieroglyphs begin racing across the lens, visible from the other side as well. His eyes bug out with surprise and fascination as the runes continue to fly across the small piece of glass.
"I-I've never seen anything like this!" he exclaims excitedly, grabbing a piece of paper and beginning to desperately catalog the symbols. "This could be huge!"
((Sorry Nasus I was busy with school and projects >.>)) "Indeed that's how I felt when I first saw it. Now suppose you need more time with the object your self so you can translate it. So I'm going look around this part of the library to brush up with my knowledge of Icathia as I'm a bit rusty on Icathia"
Then Ezreal goes to a shelf near by and grabs a old tome and studies it eagar to await the results of the hieroglyphs from the lens
((No worries, I'm just happy to have responses. :3 ))
The head librarian gives only a distracted nod as a response, continuing to scribble down the runes as quickly as he can. After a while, he pulls out a new sheet of parchment, having run out of room on the first.
"If I'm reading this correctly," he says, rereading what he managed to scribble. "This piece is claiming to be incomplete. I think it's trying to give directions to another piece."
Just by hearing the words of the head librarian Ezreal put the tome back into the shelf and runs back to him.
"Joy isn't this lovely a Fletch quest. Just give me the directions, and can bring the pieces back here to be examine again. Well then head librarian tell me the location, and I will come back here quicker then a overbalancing Rammus."
Ezreal then stretch his body, and prepares for a long journey ahead of him.
Near the end of Morgron Pass closest to the Shurima desert, the air would seem to distort. A few green swirls of magic would seem to be the cause, which quickly grew in number and speed. A few seconds later Riniac would appear at the center of the Teleport spell, sliding down the wall of the division. He began walking towards the supposed location of Nasus' archives without ever slowing, having bent sent by Vessaria herself to retrieve Nasus and bring him to the Institute. Casting a light Barrier over himself to block the sand, Riniac set off.
The head librarian nods and takes a moment to read over the runes again.
"If I'm reading this correctly, the other piece should be in a pyramid close to the center of the Desert. It warns of various pitfalls and such and I can give you a transcription of what I deciphered, if you wish."
He takes a moment to straighten up and sigh, satisfied with the work he has done this day.
