Why Melchior, Guru of Life, decided to embark upon this compendium.
Part I: The Trichotomy, A Unified Framework of Esoteric Concepts
Establishes a self-consistent theoretical framework for discussing esoteric phenomena.
Part II: Categories of Life and Bekkler's Dilemma
Discusses all possible "life forms" judging from the above framework, and their probable characteristics.
Part III: The Use of Magic
A proposition for how the Great People of Zeal exercise arcane strength.
Part IV: The Sea of Dreams and the Song of Life
Hypothetical existence of an Entity, its fantastic motivation, and how its motive provides the foundation for all the preceding subjects.
(Addendum) Part V: Lavos and its Threat to the Entity
All that could be recovered of notes hastily written by Melchior before relocating to Choras circa 1005AG.
(Addendum) Part VI: The Dream Devourer and its New Threat to the Entity
Addendum completely authored by Belthasar, Guru of Reason and PhD.
