== Content ==
This book appears to be a series of notes in your father's handwriting, and consists of pieces of text copied from other books and source material that relate to the Utraeans.
'The Utrae tribe settled in an inhospitable land, near a mystical power source that is referred to in ancient texts as the Great Clock.'
'In their quest to further refine their society toward a perfect ideal, Utraean mystics explore connections with higher planes of existence. Contacts with pure elemental planes are established, resulting in the summoning of Elementals for labor and protection.'
'The Utraean wizard-priesthood is now intent on contacting and manipulating energies from the highest spiritual planes for the glory of the Utraean civilization. Using the power of the Great Clock, Utraean wizard-priests attempt direct contact with a divine power. The realm they access is actually the Elemental realm of Shadow.'
It is here that most of the texts end, your father writes, explaining that 'the Utraeans bargaining with the powers from the Shadow Realm unleashed a creature that almost proved their undoing. They were, after a great struggle, able to subdue the creature and confine it, but rather than destroy it, they began to study it and harness its power for their own uses.'
The last journal entry is dated a few days before your parents left on their journey.
