Neide:
"Yuck", Neide thought.
Nevertheless, her curiosity was stronger than her disgust - so, she tried examining the papers...
Most of the documents are old letters which appear to relate to the original purchase of the house; details are unclear, though their general tenor can be deduced-- sale, financial arrangements, payments...
One sheet, towards the bottom of the bundle, gets Kerran's attention.
"Say, may I see that please?"
Neide hands it over-- it seems to her to be in some other language she doesn't know, or perhaps in code.

This is the prayer asking Veles to stiffen the limbs of the enemy, making their joints and sinews temporarily like stone-- this can paralyze an enemy, stop them in their tracks! The mage who used to live here must have come across this but didn't know what it was! Probably meant to study it later, and never got around to it. This is very useful! I haven't mastered this invocation yet-- but this'll let me ask Veles for it once, for sure!"
