This rare magical book is bound with the hide of a song dragon. Milil's symbol of the silver harp is mounted on the front cover. The pages are made from bark carefully trimmed from the trees of living dryads and hamadryads, with strands of their hair to bind and strengthen the paper. The pages are then sewn into the hide cover using korred hair.

Powers

In addition to the lyrics and music of dozens of holy hyms for Milil's church, the book imparts transforming knowledge.

Any spell casting wizard or bard who is already proficient in an appropriate instrument can learn the secret of spellsinging. Somatic spell components are provided by playing the instrument, while verbal components come from singing.

Further, depending on the readers current class, the book permits a change of class as follows:

  • If the reader is a priest, he may convert to Milil's priesthood with no loss of level. If he is already a cleric of Milil, he may become a Tuneservant specialty priest of the same level with all associated powers.
  • If the reader is a paladin, he may immediately join the Harmonious Order.
  • If the reader does not already have a priest class, he may add the Tuneservant specialty priest if multiclassed, or dual class to a Tuneservant.
  • If the reader does not already have a bard class, he may add the bard class if multiclassed, or dual class to a bard. If he doesn't already have a kit, one can be chosen at the time of transformation, so long as the kit would normally be open to his race.
  • if the reader already has a fighter (but not ranger or paladin) class and a rogue class (thief or bard), he me immediately dual or multiclass to the the Druidic Bard specialty priesthood.
