The rune of Bowgentle.


[The cover of the book was made from a thin slab of slate bound in Amnian yoxen leather that was dyed a glossy black color. It was embossed with a pattern of a human and a dragon and had an oval plate on its center that had Bowgentle's personal rune. There were 53 sheets of vellum in the book, sewn into the spine with silk.]

History

[Bowgentle sought magical knowledge from many dangerous locations in Spira during his years. In his old age, the mage stopped by the House of Wonder, wrote down his spells, and shared them with the apprentices there. When Bowgentle died, and the Masters of the school learned of his passing, they ordered a compilation of his spells to be written and titled it Bowgentle's Book. It was closely guarded in the school's library.]
