Well, he gotta tell them that. Kiaane rarely brings books out; it's actually because they recognized Martin had an interest in it that they're even considering bringing it out in the first place.

Kiaan gives a hapless indication of they-don't-know.

Kiaan vaguely stuffs the book in Martin's direction. Delicately and carefully, of course.

(Thanks phone autocorrect)

Kiaan apparently thinks that's just about enough, because they let go and then apparently face towards the exit.
The cricket chirps again. Man, it likes chirping.

Kiaan's gaze seems a lot more unforgiving in the instant that Martin struggles with keeping the book where it should be--as in, not dropping down to the ground or being on the ground--but maybe that's just an impression or illusion, since they sometimes look like they're looking for a fight when they're not.

Don't worry, all's good and fine and...forgiven? Maybe that's the case, maybe not.
The cricket chirps.
"I know," Kiaane speaks simply, not translating the cricket this time, possibly because it was addressing them.

Hahaha. 
After taking a few steps, Kiaane beckons with one hand to Martin.

The cricket chirps. Wow, dialogue diversity, I know. It makes a scratchy noise right after and snuggles up more in the sleeve.
Kiaane doesn't respond this time, instead, they hold a hand out, making a quick motion with their hand. Instantly, the lights they lit earlier are blown out, as if the flames weren't really there in the first place--and the bibliotheca is left in darkness.
 

The cricket's comfortable. It attempts to stare back at him. 
The sounds Kiaane's clothing ruffling with movement are paired with an increasing halo of light to the frontal left of Martin. Presumably Kiaan is moving and casting a spell for the way out.

Kiaan picks up Martin soon after, not seeming to be concerned about the cricket, and a moment later they're back in the base for the Thaohal Mage Guild.

Nope. They're still carrying him, probably because they forgot to put him down. They're absentminded in that way.
"Yes," they answer, starting off in a vaguely incorrect direction--as in the kitchen is kind of in that direction but also kind of not.

Martin's kind of just being swung around. Hopefully he's not too uncomfortable.
Kiaane walks all the way to the general location where the kitchen is, which is a good start, but then they start for the way that will take a much longer time and has a huge roundabout.

(That is exactly why I made Kiaan carry him lol)
"Which [way]?" Kiaane asks. The [way] is obviously there to make it clearer what they're saying. They just asked "which?" in "real life". 

Kiaane pauses and regards the direction. The pause turns into a long while.
The cricket is literally cricketing.
