the first step on a long path

Psycho had been in Athktla in the library speaking to Tsaroth about the book that Wrack had given him a few weeks before.  The book had been harder to coax into translation that Psycho had previously believed.  Even the robot which had translated so much before had no luck.  Psycho had another idea but it would require more than magic or wisdom.  It would require blood. 

Psycho of course had tried blood, the book never stained or absorbed anything but ink. The pages stayed fresh and perfect.  Psycho had even tried to rip out a page, but as he hypothesized the pages were not simply bound into the book. The book was an entity in and of itself.  The parts of the book such as pages, bindings, and the cover did not make the book, the book had made the pieces to facilitate its being.  The book was very much alive, and Psycho would no sooner harm the book than a fellow member of his brotherhood. 

While Psycho was pondering how to use the book, he got a very interesting tell from a wizard

'I know you have much knowledge of the Moonshae Isles.  I do, Perhaps we can be of some assistance to each other. I feel with some effort between us we can make  progress into freeing the old gods.'

Psycho had indeed spent much time in the islands, but when Corleone called Psycho he had no idea how far down the rabbit hole they could really go.  The weaver of Fate had plucked his cord and called him to further investigate the islands than he or any other had before.
