How to Read a Book (artifact)

A short story meant to teach Marcher peasants how to read and write, this copy is one of hundreds created at the behest of Lord Kavin Shevaun, who desired to perform great reforms to improve the lives of the peasantry but is also regarded as having no understanding of rulership. It appears that Shevaun realized his error soon after the final book was created, because he abruptly ended the program and demanded all copies of the book be burned.
