You enter the old cave Houdini told you to meet him in for your daily lessons. He seemed very eager to share his knowledge over what he has learned throughout the centuries he's been living in, and he seems extremely excited about having found a young person to share it with. His cave his dark, illuminated with nothing but candles whose flames flicker in the dark. Several dozen bookshelves are lined up all across the room with books organized as if a librarian organized them, and boxes of various puzzles are aligned on top of the bookshelves. As you make your way to the back of the room, you see the elderly Alakazam floating in midair while sitting with his legs crossed. Several spoons he collected float around him as he floats with his eyes closed. He seems to be in a deep sleep, which you expected since he dozed off when you first spoke with him. You poke him on his head a couple times, and he wakes up with a tired look in his eyes.

"Hmm...who...oh. It is just you, young one. I apologize for falling asleep. I just finished a rather challenging crossword puzzle, so I needed a little rest. My mind isn't as young as it once was."

He says with a low chuckle before floating to you. He strokes his beard before speaking.

"Now, I suppose I shall continue to share information I learned with you?"
