Book of High Adventures and accompanying Ourosian Library of High Adventures

Item: The Book of High Adventures and accompanying Ourosian Ligrary of High Adventures, volumes I - CMLIV.
Material: The Book and its Library Hannas-leather bound parchment books with artisan-sewn bindings. The cover of the Book closes with a bronzed stasismetal clasp and is inlaid with a design of Ouros on the front and the Ourosian System on the back: these inlays appear to be made of bronzed stasismetal, but are worn or missing in some areas and our analysis suggests that the inlays are made of inert nanotech originally designed to disperse and collect information for the Book. Each volume is decorated with a mosaic stasismetal inlay illustrating a story or encounter described within.
Nature: The Book of High Adventures itself seems to be an artifact of the Amuse. It was originally semi-sentient but has been inert since its post-Restoration recovery and is presumed dead.
Provenance: The Book itself almost certainly originated on the Lost World of Ouros ca. the Severance; it functioned sporadically throughout the Severance and ceased to function upon the Restoration.  Both Robin the Unsteady and the avatar Orond are credited with uniting the Book with its Library shortly after the Restoration.    The Library was produced on a the Eelaymi'na habitat, in a storage room of the university there whose location was described in the last sentences of the Book.  
Function:  The Book of High Adventures is a trans-dimensional, semi-sentient device placed on the world Ouros by an entity (presumed Amuse, as mentioned above) who wished to generate a record of the Severance that would be accessible even if the Restoration failed.  During the millenia between the Severance and Restoration the Book found its way into the hands of a variety of persons, exercising some degree of initiative in order to find "interesting" events to record.  From the perspective of the Ourosian users the book wrote itself: each new owner would find the volume near-blank, and it would immediately begin to write about the owner's recent encounters.  Often the Book would encourage the owners to take risky or adventurous courses of action, and would gather intelligence presumably by dispersing its nanotech inlays to act as sensory and communications devices.
