After she died, we were clearing out our neighbours house, and we came upon the grimoire. She, the neighbour, was a victim of the wizards. Saw her whole family turned to glass before her very eyes. Why would she keep this, for all those years? To understand magic? To understand the wizards? Their motivations, their perspectives? I can't say. Perhaps she just wanted it no one's hands but her own.
