As Mathwin says the words, the scroll slightly flashes, then the magic fades away from the scroll. Mat does not feel any different. Looking around to see what all the fuss is about, he turns his head towards the wall, and see's writing on one of the boards that was not there before! There must have been a glyph of "see invisibility" on the scroll! Mat thinks!

As Mat sees the words fade into existence, he reads: "Copy these words down exactly on you page;" Then there seems to be a short essay regarding the ancient Azlanti and tells the story of how magic was brought into existence. There is a lot of text, so you begin copying the essay on your scroll.

You may take 10, 20 or roll a linguistics check to see how well/long it takes you to write down the essay.
