When I went to the Saxonmarks, I saved three books. The Book of Songs, the Book of Tales, and the Healing Book. I write this so one will not think they were Apollania's. I went to great lengths to secure them and, therefore, desire the honor for doing so. |

I did much more besides: When Gosa Makonta — whose goodness and clairvoyance have become proverbial — had fallen, I went to Texland by myself to copy the writings that she had left. And when the last will of Frana was found, and the written legacy of Dela or Hellenia, I did so once more. |
