Tied twice over by twine, a small stack of books is delivered to the Tarkuul Library. Over the top book is a small parchment.
"This is all that was left concerning Chronomancy. The brown binding is my own hand-writing, as there was only one copy of the subject. I hope this is proficient until I find more material. Please send missive of other requests.
I had asked one of the librarians what the Triumvir requires replacing. She recalled off the top of her head no sign of a small collection of Tethyrian demographics she was in the middle of recovering for a student, could not locate information of the origin and exportation of ambergis and a short story about Castle Krag located in Shadowdale.
There are heaps more, but such a list will take a while to compile. In addition, it will take some effort to categorize the recovered pieces of art and poetry, which require delicate distribution (credentials, restorations, copies, etc.).
--Madrik Street"
The top book is a hard covered blue with a reflective gold decor shaped like ribbons swirling down the binding. The book is only a half inch thick, but elegant and well preserved in its design. The title reads, "The Careful Manipulation of Time Itself". One chapter introduces chronomancy and about the wizards who study the school. One page is book-marked by an ivory feather. The page emphasizes the dangers of knowledge of the future.
The second book is much thicker and is bound together by a black, hard cover. Painted beautifully in white is a title in elven, "Divine All". The book is tattered but contains a solid structure to it. Inside, the book covers many detailed subjects that seem to primarily focus on elvish origins of magic, demographics of particular cities, favored schools and what appears to be political propaganda of a lesser known agenda. However, there are four pages bookmarked by an ivory feather each. Upon these pages contain a very unhelpful and basic description of spells including Time Warp, Precognition, Control Aging and Time to Act.
The third book is covered by a brown, looser covering. Inside, folded parchments are bound by twine. These are hand-written copies by Madrik himself that quote excerpts of other books, including the mentioning of the clergy of Sortec who harbors a deep hatred for those who study chronomancy and discouraging dangers of pursuing such a rare and complicated field of magic. It was as if Madrik himself is attempting to share knowledge, but also add a subtle warning of his own to use the knowledge responsibly.

A very pleased Lorekeeper spends her night looking over the tomes with a faint smile, taking notes inside of her office. After she has taken in the information offered, she pens a note and disappears from the City for a short time.
