So I’m parading my newly created Book of Secrets around Lion’s Arch a couple of weeks ago, and then I start to get the itch to change my asura’s hair. So I go and do the last Living World episode to get my free hair kit, and I find the first image halfway through the section.

Fast forward to last week and I’m doing map completion in Straits of Devastation (or was it Malchor’s Leap? I forget) and I find this gem (second image). I am now confused, intrigued and a bit put off by my newly acquired and first ascended item. Anybody else curious about this?

EDIT: Wiki entry on Fire of the Gods: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Fire_of_the_Gods

Wiki entry on the skill point: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Captain%27s_Log

The two entries contradict my theory that they’re the same books. Still searching for more. Anybody else find these books scattered about, with the same look?

I guess they just re-used a book texture and that’s all about it.

If I come across a book like this, I’ll let you know. Although it could be a re-used texture that can still link the books: the stamp was a serpent on it right? idk how but it might connect the two books to something else than the Forgotten (at least the book “Fire of the Gods” is related to the Forgotten, who knows what the Captain has to do with them?). Could be interesting :)

Re-used texture. Happens a lot.

Let the Kings and Queens of other lands and lesser creatures
witness our wonders and cry out in astonishment and humble themselves.
Beware our mighty works.

Seems this was all a waste of time, then. High hopes lead to low downs…

They use the Forgotten Tome texture (first majorly used in Forgotten path of Arah explorable) several times over, including for all ascended backpieces.

They only have like 5 interactive book appearances made, so there’s like 50 books that have the New Krytan text “History of Tyria Vol 1” on it.

Dear ANet writers,
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.
