Of Blades and Blooded Honor

Of Blades and Blooded Honor was an ancient book that collected lore and history of the elves of Cormanthyr, preserved and secured behind Candlekeep's fortress walls as of the 14 century DR.

"Predictably enough, at this time the most powerful seat of elven culture was not Evermeet at all, but the forest of Cormanthyr. As ambitious gold elves came to realize this, many of them began to leave the island and settle in the burgeoning cities of Cormanthyr..."

History
On 11 of Flamerule, the, Athol of Candlekeep responded to Danilo Thann's of Waterdeep numerous very persistent requests regarding the Of Blades and Blooded Honor. Athol turned down the Harper as the tome he had his eye on was ancient and one of the five oldest books stored in the library fortress of Candlekeep. Instead, Athol sent Danilo a sampling pages copied from the book, and if the Waterdhavian was satisfied with the contents, Athol offered to hire a scribe to make a complete copy foe a humble price of 5,000 gp. A generous offer, considering the scribe's youth and lack of experience.
