The book had been a gift from a half elf he had helped out of a rather nasty misunderstanding with a dwarf. It wasn't a planned endeavor and he hadn't really expected to be paid for it. A pro-bono spur of the moment decision to step-in. It wasn't the wisest decision he had ever made, stepping in to the middle of a cross-species disagreement. He had not fully thought that plan through. If he had, he might have decided against it. But surprisingly it went rather well and did not result in bloodshed from any party involved.

Not that it had ended well, but considering where it could have gone, it went better than the worst case scenarios.

The book itself was fascinating, the language seemed close enough to latin roots he could decipher it, or work on doing so. The problem arose in the dangers of improperly deciphering a spell book. It was going to take cross referencing and careful deciphering.

Setting the book aside, he scanned through his libraries for one of his many Elven reference books, sliding his fingers across the shelves. Alphabet of the Dwarves, Roots of Draconic Speech, Linguistics of elven language...

"Where did I put it..."

Ah, there it was. Elven Spellspeak. Sliding the book off the shelf he pulled various papers from the pages and set to work.
