"I think I could find my way back if I was allowed to lead" says the book.

"Can we remove your pages for ease of travel, or are they an integral part of you?"

"I would be wary about pulling pages out of a spellbook" Says the book.

"Alright. Then we'll just take you with us like this. You're not getting a body just yet." Ransel turns to the rest of the party to check with them.

Aldyne

A look of doubt upon his face, Aldyne turns away, thinking. After a few moments he turns to Ransel. "I'm not sure about this book," he says. "I guess it wouldn't hurt to take it along, but to listen to what it says..." He turns to the Mage. "Is there any way to know if it tells the truth? Or," he says, regarding the book, "is there any way you can prove that what you have said is true?"

"That this abomination follows Set is all we need to know, nothing it says is to believed" says the old mage.

"I'm the victim here" says the book, "all I want is a normal life back."

Aldyne

"Well, I will bow to the majority," Aldyne says, discomfort clearly showing on his face. "But I do not like it we are to take it along."

"Besides screaming up loud, he can't do anything, can he? I mean, cast a spell or something.." Ransel asked just to be sure. If he was going to take the book, he wanted to know just waht he was taking with him.

"Actually", says the old mage "there is a real possibility that he can cast verbal only cleric spells, if he is indeed a cleric. In fact, it could be a large part of the reson his lips were sealed."

"The way I see it, it's in it's best interest to keep us alive untill he gets a new body. If he proves good enough in our mission, I think we should return here and give him his body. Meanwhile, it'd do good to" Ransel turns to the book "cooperate. This means you tell us of things like traps, soldiers and clerics. Alright?"
