Description summary:
The description varies based on your level of 
.
| Lead: Ecology | Description |
|---|---|
| 501 | Texts on the Broken Men of the Third City, who apparently took to zee in a raft seeking Xibalba, reveal curious psychosomatic properties in the eye of the beholder. |
| 502 | In a text by a Fourth City monk named Nasturtium, you find a series of prophecies that suggest one's anatomy can also be one's destiny. He draws fascinating parallels between the ascension of the Devils and the descent of the Rubbery Men. |
| 503 | A Khan of Meat has compiled an astonishing (and much-spattered) bestiary, fragments of which can occasionally be found in the stacks. The existence of such creatures seems improbable, but there they are. Complete with tasting notes. |

Failure
Damnable forgery
It takes perhaps too much time to discern that this is a diary from the Apicius Club and not a bestiary. In your defence, they do insist on writing in Latin, and the spatters add an ageing effect.
