Book Artifact?
« on: December 16, 2012, 11:45:47 pm »
More Could it Be Human?, More Could it Be Human?, a cat-leather bound book. 

The written portion consists of a 128 page guide entitled More Could it Be Human? authored by Mokun Clutchcalm.  It concerns the wood-bound book More Could it Be Human? The writing is somewhat self-indulgent.

So from what I can see... this is a book.... about a book...  What?  This is blue, instead of the usual brownish color in the Artifacts (l) screen.  What's its purpose?  I'm guessing someone wrote a book.. about a book that was about life and death?  I'm tempted to abandon, make an adventurer, and come read this damn thing.

A Necromancer might've dropped it.

I do suggest copying the save file, and then making an adventurer to read it. Or keep that book under lock and key so that when your fortress inevitably crumbles, you know where it is.

You can just look it up in legends mode. If it contains the secrets of life and death, it will say "it contains the secrets of life and death". If it doesn't, it's relatively useless except as a trophy.

That's how books work in vanilla. If you would read it in adventure mode it would just repeat the description, there is nothing more to see.
