 > Yours *[etc]*
 
+From Alexios, Late Summer 1217 to the Librarian of Nigrasaxa
+> Esteeemed Sir,
+>
+>Thank you for your letter which I was delighted to receive. I will make arrangements with our own library and the Mercere for an unbound copy of the work by Bonisagus to be delivered at an equivalent time.
+>The work is indeed bound by the same variant Oath, with the source covenant being Durenmar. A copy will be provided with the book. 
+> Yours in amity,
+> Alexios

+From Alexios to Maximianus; Autumn 1217 
+> Sir,
+> 
+>I wished to write in person to thank you for agreeing to gift our covenant with a copy of your work on the magics of the human body. I am very much looking forward to perusing it. 
+>
+>*there follows a page of pleasantries they say much and mean little.*
+>
+>I wondered if I might presume on your patience further to ask if you would be interested in entering into a more protracted correspondence on the topic of the human body. I think that the focus of my own studies; which has involved largely the instantaneous transmission of the human body, may provide slightly different insights than your own. I would certainly appreciate your thoughts on my research and would be delighted to provide you with any thoughts of my own if that would be of interest to you. 
+>
+>If I were to give you the bare bones of my research to date with respect to this area; it would comprise the following matters. 
+>
+>*here follows several pages of notes on Alexios' understanding of corpus, largely focusing on how the body can be moved without damaging it.*
+>
+>I look forward to your response.

 *[GM Note: It will take one season to bind the incoming volume; so it will 
 be available to study from starting in Summer 1218.  The Parma Magica book 
 is indeed under said Oath, with the source covenant being the Library of Durenmar]*
+*[Question to GM: given the quality of this book, would it make sense to incorporate resonant materials in this book? It seems to be sufficiently high level to be worth it to me and corpus is a very useful art.]
+* [second question to GM: I have no idea what the final quality will be. Is the quality you gave originally just for the text and anything from the binding is extra? Ie if we get it bound by skilled artisans and incorporate resonant materials is it 15 as he had it, 16 for the resonant materials or 19 for skilled artisans and resonant materials?]
