Description (EN): 

"I wonder if he reads them, if if they're just for
show..". There's some strange fascination that nobles
have with books that I can never quite understand.
Maybe it's because they think we commoners can't read
them and it makes them superior, in my experience it's
just that "nobles" never pass an opportunity to just
make it clear who's got the cash and what better way
to do it than to spend it something so  impractical.

Anyway, it turns out my old friend Lord Bafford is
seeking to expand his collection, going for quality
over quantity. He's getting all kinds of rare tomes
from across the lands and is having one especially
delivered from Lesser Hrabota. The merchant doing the
transaction is staying at the Dancing Clayman inn at
Lower Eastport tonight with the intention of delivering
it tomorrow. However, a well paying client of mine
has also expressed an interest, and I wouldn't want
to dissapoint.

I wonder if Lord Bafford has ever seen the inside of a Keeper library.

Beschreibung (DE):
  
"Ich frage mich, ob er sie liest, oder ob sie nur zur Austellung gedacht sind.
Bücher üben auf Adlige eine merkwürdige Faszination aus, die ich nicht ganz verstehen kann.
Möglicherweise ist der Grund, daß sie denken, wir einfachen Bürger könnten sie nicht lesen
und darum fühlen sie sich überlegen. 
Meiner Erfahrung nach wollen die Adligen nur keine Möglichkeit auslassen, zu zeigen wer das 
Geld hat und welch sinnlose Methoden es gibt, dies auszugeben.

Jedenfalls sieht es so aus, als wäre mein alter Freund Lord Bafford dabei, seine Sammlung
zu erweitern und zwar im Sinne von Qualität geht vor Quantität.
Er bekommt alle Arten seltener Wälzer von Übersee und zwar von keinem geringeren als von Hrabota.
Der die Transaktion ausführende Händler befindet sich diese Nacht im Gasthof "Dancing Clayman"
(tanzender Tonmeister) mit der Absicht, morgen zu liefern.
Jedoch hat ein mich gut bezahlender Kunde auch Interesse an diesem Buch und ich möchte 
ihn ungern enttäuschen.

Ich frage mich, ob Lord Bafford jemals das Innere einer Hüter-Bibliotek gesehen hat."
