It describes an artificer's explorations of various places in Ksiban, but not in enough detail to locate them on a map. The unnamed author does, however, make many mentions of his only traveling companion: a shield guardian named Vorn. If the characters befriend O'tamu, he gives them the journal and shows them on Syndra’s map where it was found (he accurately indicates the hex containing the guardian. The journal contains a picture of Vorn’s control amulet but provides no clues to the amulet’s current whereabouts. As a reward for finding and retrieving the construct and its control amulet, O'tamu offers a spellbook containing fifteen randomly determined spells (roll a d6 to determine the level of each spell).

• Elyuja will reserve two questions from Talk to Dead in order to ask the corpse for consent and their final request.
• Elyuja will ask a corpse what to do with their bodies. The bodies will request them to find the other 4 guards and bury them. If they do it, it will add 2-4 days to their travel time. This will have in-game consequences but will win the party (including Elyuja) admiration from Abir. The bodies will all have unique information about the blue dragon (the last will reveal a second dragon's presence).
