Roleplay from Usul Soul
Usul found the book stacked with others of similar size but of no particular interest--This book was different though.
During the evening when Erasmus had given him a tour of the 'Lower Dungeon', Usul had approached a large oak chest in one of the corners of the room. The chest contained various items that were unrecognisable to Usul; but were clearly for the use of inflicting a degree of pain; some silverware and a stack of books.
The book that had caught Usul's attention was old, far older that the rest, and eminated an aura of mystery-- It almost screamed out.
Upon opening the book, parchments slid out from within, the pages intact but some beginning to separate from the spine. The pages contained faded writing in ancient tongue unfamiliar to Usul. The parchments were written in both ancient and common tongue, a few pages with maps also.
When questioned, Erasmus knew of the book but had paid no attention to it, having no knowledge of the language. Erasmus then offered to carry the heavy bulk to the office quarters for his Chancellor.
Usul now had the book on a desk within a secluded room, away from the populated working areas of the building. Having already made some progress desiphering a few pages; using the parchments created by a previous persons attempt; He continuted to study his book once again throughout the night.... into the early hour of dawn.
