Arnir, you close the door to your room and begin examining the various items.
The old tome that was prematurely disintegrated by Kirio's eager hands appears to be the remains of a very ancient spell book. Your read magic cantrip shows that three full spells remain: Glitterdust, Mount and a curious spell called Burning Blood.
The large black scroll tube is clearly made from lead and has been heavily lacquered. Inside the tube is a tightly rolled scroll which emits moderate auras of conjuration, transmutation and necromancy. When you remove it and begin to examine it, you see that it can be unrolled into a length of almost 6 feet. The material is black as night and strange to the touch, like thin leather but it sheds warmth like a candle. The scroll is covered in writing in a language that means nothing to you, but you notice similarities between the characters and some of the Yuan-Ti script that you saw in the cave complex. The writing, designs and iconography are all written in a dark red substance which is mixed with something metallic such as silver dust. Strangely, it cannot be identified as a distinct item but you divine a name for the scroll: The Ebon Treatise of Sskultath. The scroll can be deciphered and you know that with access to the Lyceum archives, this would take you approximately a week.
