Knowledge written,
every page,
sometimes bitten,
the book in rage,

Common,
for a skilled mage,
oh come on,
for those of younger age,

Suffering,
for education,
secrets within,
hidden from elaboration,

Those books alive,
give them paper and ink,
hunger is their drive,
the key for a lifetime link,

Magic trap included,
bring a sacrifice gnome,
if in a mage tower intruded,
basic equipment if you quest alone.

Written in cursed ink,
difficult to come by,
bring lemon juice to drink,
erasing every second letter is a try,

Written in forbidden tongues,
just dont do that,
no matter which god in darkness longs,
those are never worth the bet,

Elemental infused,
very pretty decoration,
until they can be used,
fire needs extra elaboration,

For further information,
consult your librarian,
whatever sick curse variation,
just in case bring a barbarian,

A curse might not hit,
if the victim is unable to process
the anti-intelligence diffusion kit,
an unusual use of barbarians, I confess.

Cursed book,
no problem,
so whatever loot you took,
just open them!
