[A collection of letters between two correspondents, but all written in an unfamiliar code or cipher. At the end of the scrapbook is a sheet titled 'Plaintext Deciphered by G'.]
Chosen of Bhaal - Your proposal is intriguing. Tell me more about the Crown of Karsus.
Chosen of Bane - It was created to enhance and broadcast the dominance of its creator, but during the Folly it was inverted, turned inward. Now, instead of the wearer dominating others, others can dominate the wearer.
Chosen of Bhaal - Useful. I like it. How do you exert this dominance?
Chosen of Bane - The crown has three begemmed finials. They are the foci. And... they are detachable.
Chosen of Bhaal - Three? So that's why our masters want Myrkul added to the cabal. With the Crown on the right cranium, we would rule from the shadows. But how do we get it?
Chosen of Bane - We steal it from Mephistopheles himself. And I know who can get us there - a diabolist named Helsik.
