Bound in grey-dyed leather of the highest quality, this tiny book is always on Nicolae's person. A circular shape, formed out of complex designs the colour of yellow gold is emblazoned on the cover of the book. The author's handwriting is sloppy yet still legible.

Entry One "Unbelievable, unthinkable, inexplicable! How dare they perform such a transgression against I, Protector Nicolae!? The Bartizan will make my doomed abductors pay for their crime, and I will get my revenge!

I've been stuck down here for ages, it seems. I just can't find a way out. . ."

Entry Two "I nearly lost my foot back there. The stones came tumbling down, crushing my leg, but my blasted foot was lodged under a particularly heavy boulder. Took all my strength to get it free, but finally managed it.

I'm in the most curious place, I must add. I'm in the camp of 'Nurtle the Exile,' some senile old dwarf who suffers from dementia. He sure is an imaginitive little runt. He's told me so many fibs - for instance, we're in 'the Underdark' and that there's a nearby city bustling with humans called 'Sanctuary.'

Although I'm sure he also is afflicted with never-miss fallibility, he insists that there is no way back to the surface, which sounds more like a truth every time I take a look at this cavern.

Regardless, he's peaked my curiousity - besides, it's time to prove one more imbecile wrong."
