Beamer:
[sblock]From what you can tell, this is easily the smallest shelf, and while you cannot always make out obvious magic items, you're certain that this shelf contains the magic art. Nothing you see resembles the three descriptions you've heard, and nothing stands out as a fourth piece of the Dance of Souls.[/sblock]
"That? That's certainly no piece of the Dance, for one, it's of a terrible quality, and it's too young. An enthusiastic, game-loving wizard created it. It should have become one of several game pieces, propably for chess or dervish. After creating that one piece, the wizard found that the creation process was too draining for a whole set, and abandoned the idea. After a few changes of hands, it came into my possession. You want to take that one?" Tennar says, clearly relieved not to have to talk about fiendish texts.
