Hail thief,

The Tome of the Anointed is not a secret book; it would be well for all
Sapience to read it and benefit from its wisdom. I hope that you and
your comrades will avail yourself of the opportunity now that you have
the book in your possession. Of course, we will certainly endeavour to
recover what has been stolen.

I confess myself amused at your public preening; the book is important
as an historical artifact, certainly, but you've hardly managed to steal
the words of it out of our heads or to destroy the many copies in
Sapience's libraries and on the person of the Anointed ones themselves.

With somewhat lowered regard,
Father Azor of the Anointed

Penned by my hand on the 9th of Miraman, in the year 505 AF.
