''By Hyacinthia ys’Andalis, Planeswalker & Knight of the Order of the Raven in Flight''

'''Author’s Prelude'''

Greetings, Seeker! Again, perhaps? You hold in your hand an invaluable resource, for this is the second volume of a guide to Arelith’s greatest hidden treasure: The Astrolabe, the Door with many Keys. If you’ve been lucky, you may perhaps have already come across the first volume of the work. If not, do not fret! You may begin in the middle just as surely as at the beginning.

The first step is to Attune yourself to the Glorag Stone, high in the Skull Crags. After that, you will need the correct Keys, clues to which I have left in the three volumes of this Codex. Once you pass through the Door, the rest is up to you.

This volume concerns the Upper Planes of the Great Wheel, those otherworldly realms of the Outer Planes which are aligned towards Good.
----'''Second Riddle of Keys'''

Four shining demesnes

Await the traveler

Arms open in welcome.

For Arvandor, ever-green,

Turn to the wild:

This Key is given freely.

Elysium, so tranquil and serene,

Makes addicts of us all.

The Key: One drug traded for another.

To gaze upon the Mount Celestial,

Simply offer up a blessed Key,

And it shall flow home.

And Mechanus, the last of all,

Its Key in perfect order bound:

A clockwork man turns within the lock.
----[The final page of the book bears a simple design: A star, ringed by two layers of circles - six compose the inner layer and a further sixteen make up the outer layer.]
