## Lore

*♫ Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother, you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive ♫*

The ***Hammerlands Survival Guide*** was a book written by Tox during Dragonhollow's Seventh Era.

It was a comprehensive manual for everything in Dragonhollow during the Seventh Era. Though modeled after earlier Survival Guides, it went into more depth and aimed to be the only thing people needed to read in order to be successful in the Hammerlands.

Acey was listed as a co-author because she was the source of much of the information contained within.
