by Vol 4.1 - The Cycle

Until the ends of time. Ost nagramee ramen. Till night doth come. Rieme let droh x'hum. And sweet darkness takes all.

The book looks like it has been carefully maintained and written. Each new page begins with a carefully penned diagram and historical reference for the topic at hand.

Lo, ye who rest thine eyes on these pages know that the text ye read here is not for weary minds. I am Sonukh Qar, third prefect of the province of Lathieme. I now write these words in an attempt to banish the dreams that have haunted me for the last few months.

My eldest son has brought down a curse upon us in an act of sheer foolishness and now, in order to be rid of it, I must yield my pen to the whims of this of force that reaches into my mind at night.

the author is clearly a majestic writer... his penlines touch the surface of the odd paper in ways you thought never possible... yet you cannot help but divine from the curves a sense of fear and helplessness.

The text continues

I am the restless thought that comes from Darkness.

I am the cold hand that reaches out in the night.

Yet, ye need not use any manner of weapon to find this blood. All that need be done is the Twin of the Soul Using any standard complement of available to thee, create an Altar to Oblivion... ....

Here the text goes into details with diagrams how one might by a rite of dark magic cause the blood of any creature to simply bleed unstopably from the body. A dark altar... A prayer to the night... An artifact of power.. The final passage of the text appears to be a plee from it's author

As the pages begin to dim in my sight and it becomes abundantly clear that I shall never be able to destroy this madness I have penned to paper I beseech thee, whomever ye are to bur......

the last words are scrawled out and replaced with another entirely different writing... it seems to describe some kind of giving of thanks.. It appears the book has existed in many different planes as it has gained a kind of magical transparency to it.
