Text

  • Research notes. They describe a powerful venom extracted from a rare purple worm. Distiller Thisobald Thorm sought to create a fatal poison using the worm's gullet.*


  • He procured several parts of a worm gullet, but rinsed one in error. The poison he brewed was noxious - but not fatal.*


  • Thisobald devoted months to formulating a deadly poison with the remaining ingredients, without success.*


  • After exhaustive experimentation, he was able to make a near-deadly extract from the glands. But to complete his poison, Thisobald required one last ingredient:*


  • The petals of a corpse rose.*


  • The book's index reveals corpse roses may grow near tombs, mausoleums, and particularly redolent cadavers.*


  • Thisobald enlisted a courier from Baldur's Gate to obtain corpse rose petals and other ingredients and deliver them to a covert location.*


  • Unfortunately, a deep purple stain darkens the final page, obscuring the parcel's destination.*
