The Scrolls Of Chromatic Sorcery

[taichara]

A dozen scrolls are known to scholars,
drawn from the ruins of Serpent-Spired Kovoruk and a few other, lesser ruins;
their contents form the core of many extant schools of magic,
all expanding on the truths perceived in colours.

True chromatic scrolls are rumoured to hold secrets still,
hidden within the subtle play of hue and shade
that make up the colour of their fabric,
that strange substance; translucent,
as if vellum were made of horn,
and picked across the surface in dizzying calligraphy.

Others whisper, quieter still, of three scrolls yet unknown;
one of Silver,
one of Gold,
and the third
-- breathe it near-silently --
of the blasphemy of the Colourless.
