"My dear friend,

Finally and without further ado, I'm sending you the book that will lead you to lands of the dragons!

Do not ask how I got my hands onto this book or to describe the perils I went through in order to obtain it. What is important is that the book is finally in your hands and now you can begin your long awaited journey. But please, I beg you to be cautious, for the book is valuable and will draw eyes of thief easily.

Bound in dragon skin, it is locked with gem topped dragon claw! But beware, the book pages are powdered with dried dragon blood, the secret poison which will quickly and efficiently burn and then kill any of those with not enough knowledge to approach it with protected hands. And I warn you, even upon opening, book will reveal only blank pages and nothing more, unless you write something down.

But the secret is there, the book contains secret knowledge, a map toward dragon lands. Check the spine. There, the map is safely preserved from unwanted eyes..."
