                                   DESCRIPTION

             This is a small mod that expands upon the quest "Steal
             Chimarvamidium" from Edwinna Elbert in the Ald'Ruhn
             Guild of Mages.
             
             The room where the book is kept is now locked, but there
             are now several ways of getting the book as well as some
             new dialogue that hints at how you may go about it.
             There are also different ways you can return the book,
             with checks and dialogue for the different options,
             including if you steal the book again after returning it.

             If you wish to figure out the quest on your own, avoid
             the spoilers at the end of this document. If not, refer
             to section 8 of this readme for the solution(s) to the
             quest.


                                   REQUIREMENTS

             Requires Tribunal, Bloodmoon, and Patch for Purists.


                                  COMPATIBILITY

             This mod changes some dialogue and the relevant journal
             topic. It also changes the NPC named Sirilonwe. Any mod
             that changes this quest, or Sirilonwe, is likely to be
             incompatible.
   
             Anything else is likely to be compatible, except mods
             that makes sweeping changes to a large number of NPCs,
             in which case I recommend using an object merger.
             

                                  KNOWN ISSUES

             I've tried to make the dialogue as robust as possible,
             and I've tested everything extensively. If some bug has
             slipped through, please let me know.


                                   PERMISSIONS

             modified work is published under its own name.

                                   SPOILERS

             DO NOT READ FURTHER IF YOU WISH TO FIGURE OUT THE QUEST
             ON YOUR OWN.

             Here are the various ways to obtain the book:

             You can use stealth and pick the lock, or steal the key
             from the table behind Sirilonwe.             
             
             You can use diplomacy and get Sirilonwe's disposition to
             80+, and she will lend you the book.
             
             If you explore some dialogue options pertaining to
             Trebonius, you can have Trebonius distract Sirilonwe
             while you steal the key and the book.

             If you steal the book and give it back to Sirilonwe
             instead of giving it to Edwinna, Sirilonwe will keep the
             book on her person until you leave the cell. When you
             come back, she will have put it back in the chest.

             After the quest is finished, Sirilonwe will always keep
             the book on her person, unless she never knew you took
             it (or if she lent it to you). You get a disposition
             bonus for returning the book, but if you want to steal
             the book AGAIN, you shouldn't let her know you stole it
             in the first place. Either persuade her to lend it to
             you, or quietly sneak it back into the chest without
             letting her know you took it.
