What is recorded here

Magic and madness are often the same knife, turning on different flesh. You want to know why I walk past the fort at Tobermaing instead of entering it? Because the dead do not guard treasure. They guard the shape of the hole they dug. Go inside and you will not find gold. You will find your own hands wanting to dig, and your own breath forgetting to leave. The fort is complete. It has walls, a door and a purpose. It is waiting for a living person to finish the last room.
