A local gardener of Gridania yesterday unearthed an old book well-preserved dating back to the time of the Allagan Empire. The book was discovered while he was uprooting flora under a tree to plant spring blooms.
When interviewed, he had the following to say: “I knew right away it was something special. It was covered in a thick leather placed inside this ornate metal container.â€
The unidentified metal is now being analysed by experts as is the diary.
The Historical Society of Ancient Texts and Scriptures has since come back with some enlightening answers on the contents of the book. Parts of the ancient writing were deciphered and found to be a diary, in fact, written by a young man out at sea describing life and daily activities to his beloved.
We have not found anything so detailed, much less extraordinary, on an account of seafaring life during this time. That this is all written as a hallmark to a beloved makes the find all the more enchanting.
