The Book of Uld

For another night of Watch, Fylikiel looks around him carefully, making sure his companions are asleep and that everything is quiet... then he recites a simple enchantment producing a dim light, illuminating the cover of a leather bound tome. A tome he had in his possession for a very long time.

One of two tomes he has never been able to read. Ever.

The frustration bordering on madness forces him to open it, scrutinize it, analyze it every time he could. The only thing fascinating him more than dark secrets and ancient lores was Magic itself.

But now with the use of newly acquired dweomers, he hoped he could decipher the unintelligible texts of the grimoire. As he finished reciting the last words of his ritual, he set back his eyes on the cover, and for the first time, the glyphs formed words that his mind could interpret...

The Book of Uld, by Yogg'Sar
This grimoire has seen many millennia, yet remains almost unaltered by the ravages of time. The time of writing is thus very hard to determine, but whoever has set eyes on its ancient pages and were able to understand the cryptic words understood that the events detailed in these pages date from an age past, not too far from the Sundering. This book is written almost like a journal, detailing events witnessed or known by Yogg'Sar. Wars, creations, cataclyms and betrayals, little escaped the eye of Yogg'Sar of Uld.
