J. Alexander said:With a wry expression the Lady Vera responds, "No i do not know how to destroy the book though i can make several guesses as to what may work if such a course of action is decided"..continuing she adds "I fear the book has already affected you Jaroth, it has led you along dangerous paths and the discovery of new talents which should you attempt them upon the book be a ruse and instead of destryoing it actually set it free"
OCCC: Did i hear jaws dropping

Meetings
As the party pauses in silence they hear the faint sounds of battel. The Lady Vera then continues "As we do not have custody of the book we can only advise and poor advice it is....I fear this is something that will only have to be played out and we yet do not know the game or stakes...Dangerous grounds indeed Dangerous Grounds"

Bertrand
Bertrand sighs and takes another sip of coffee before proceeding. "I thank you for your counsel lady. I did not expect any easy answers. You said that you had some ideas about how the book might be destroyed. I would hear them in case we decide to go that route. What say you Anniston, Vadric, Vorian? Would you advise that we put the book in the hands of the church. Silverwood, are the elves interested in dealing with the book? I just want to gather options for I fear our time may be short."

Jaroth
Jaroth turns pale at Lady Vera's announcement that he may already have been affected by the book. He absent-mindedly strokes the silver streak in his hair.
"It it a curse that can be removed or halted with a blessing of The Light? I do not wish to put my friends in harm's way...any more than I already have."

Neurotic
I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
Vorian
"I still think the Book should be destroyed, if not for Evil it represents then for chaos it sows around. It is already in Church hands and," - Vorian nods toward Anniston and Vadric and indicating himself - "in my oppinion, there is no reason to change that unless someone can act directly on destroying or changing it instead only keeping it in custody. Your group already proved capable of defending itself and it's variety is it's strength. I hope I can add to both of those as well."
Having said his piece, Vorian settles back and finishes the drawing.

Vadric Elareon, Knight-Priest of the Light
"As stated, I am for destroying the book, and I am prepared to take any steps necessary to ensure that that happens. While we have thus far been able to repulse the threats that come with possession of the book, it seems that the power of those threats have grown. In time, we may well be overcome." Vadric taps his fingers against the hilt of Warsong and looks around at the faces of his companions. "We may well need to seek the aid of the Church to protect and destroy this vile evil."

"I can only condone the destruction of the book if we can guarantee that the evil within it will not be freed to roam at will. While it is contained within the book, it is a known evil that can be countered. If it is freed, we have no way of knowing the form it will take or where it might deign to sow its evil fruit.
"There are already too many evils loose within the world that are converging to try to snuff out the Light. We do not need to add to that. We have come into possession of one of the focal points for the coming conflict. To loose it upon the world throws our advantage back into the realms of chance where evil already has too many searchers looking for it."

Vadric frowns. "You seem to be missing one important aspect of this evil. It seems to be drawing the Darkness in upon itself. What happens when the odds become too great, and we are no longer able to guard the book against that Darkness. Then the forces of evil will be free to release its power for themselves. Better to destroy it at a time and place of our choosing, while we are prepared to face whatever evil power is bound within that tome, than to let it fall into the hands of the Dark Powers."
