A book that used to be Louise Burke's diary of her travels in the East, that, in the events of The Historical Re-enactment Society had become rather more interesting, as the original letters welled up off the page, becoming blobs of ink, and revealed a rather more interesting story...
The text revealed is a diary of Robert and Louise's journey to the East. The diary details their journey through Borneo, Hong Kong and South China, finally reaching the Shangdong province. It records that after staying in the area some time, they became friends with a small group of monks belonging to the 'Yu Me' family.
The final entry in the diary before the bleeding begins is
"The monks have invited us to join them in one of the family's sacred rituals. The ritual is performed once every 20 years, and binds the family's familiar spirit to another 20 years of service. We are both deeply honoured to be invited to something so important to the family's primitive beliefs"
"I am watching now as the monks prepare the ritual. We are in a roughly hewn man-made cave carved beneath a house - one of their homes, I think, and they have set up what looks like a giant prayer-wheel, only with a 13-spoked wheel perpendicular to the usual frame. I will attempt to sketch it."
Here there is an annotated sketch. There is a diagram of the markings on the device, that no-one in the room recognises as chinese writing.
"The monks were happy for me to draw the device: I think I have got it all down. They are gesturing to me now. It is time for the ritual to start. It looks like they want to borrow this book - there's a place in the centre for it to go. I shall let them have it. I hope it is not damaged."
There is no san loss for reading the book, and it provides no Cthullu Mythos, but the diagram and annotations provide instructions on how to build a prayer wheel to bind ElizabethEmai.
ElizabethEmai is currently bound to AlexanderGreystone.
The InkStainedBook is currently in the possession of the ThreePetalsTriad
Once Emai has been bound to a person, that person can summon her by willing her to appear. See SummonElizabethEmai
