      <text>What can you tell us about the Book of Ceth?</text>
      <npc>
        <reply>
          <text>Long ago, [name], when the Heavenly Forges were all but destroyed in the wake of the rebellion, it was decided by the remaining forgekeepers to write down the knowledge of old so that it would not be lost for eternity. And so they did. They wrote a book and they called it the Book of Ceth.
But later, when the forgekeepers had grown weak and few, the book was considered too powerful to be left whole.
Therefore, it was cut into seven chapters, and the chapters were given to seven rival races and factions that then lived in Karigor for savekeeping. There they were kept, and forgotten, and nobody has heard from the forgekeepers ever since.
But the Seers have some rememberence that there was once this book, since in fact it holds the power that counterbalances all prophecies. And should, therefore, hold the answer to the riddle named Thelmes.
There may be others who know, too, as the book has a will of its own, and even cut into pieces it still reaches out.</text>
