It is an antique, leather-bound book. On the elaborate cover ist he title, "Ye Useful Booke of Magick Spells". It is an old book, covered in a strange fine-grained scarlet leather, and boudn with clasps of gold-washed brass. It has a sweet musty scent of ancient vellum. The book was written in a bold sweeping calligraphy that belonged to Haroun alRaschid himself. The first page was handsomely ornamented in scarlet and gold--a title page, and a warning, those unversed in higher Iconomancy to leave the spells alone.
