Torn Journal from the Library of Rambure WIllowscribe

This journal was found stained and torn amid the books in the Private Library of Rambure Willowscribe in 2457 when it had been taken over by Da King and his gazer army.
Contents: "Rats! Rats have eaten the corners of my books! This is unacceptable. I have sent Ko to hunt them but he has found no luck. Mayhaps if he had help... or perhaps I should have just taken on a cat as a familiar. Then again, my apprentice has had no more success... though I can't know that she tried. ...

.... cursed to be a fish
One of the dolts in the hall of documents has found an "inconsistency in my files. Now of all times... I am certain that I have some documents around here that can rectify this unfortunate misunderstanding. But these new pets of mine have made a mess. I can't even find my staff.
...
My staff has been drained of magic. Worse, when I tried to channel a spell through it, the lianyte core shattered to dust.... Such a power could be valuable. I must run some tests.
