Cover to Cover

[Cover to Cover] Room: 7142555
The narrow stall has been erected with a framework of sturdy wooden shelves, the corners framed in metal-looped swatches of various materials dyed in bright colors. A bookish Ornathian clerk rests behind a map-carved olivewood counter, the elongated surface extending at an odd angle to showcase a velvet-padded chest, the container covered in stylized calligraphy. The faint scent of oud and saffron drift within the enclosed space, the aroma emanating from a peahen-shaped censer.
Obvious paths: out

Prices in silvers.

In the velvet-padded chest you see: a compass-set tanned leather cover, a brass-capped verdigris suede cover, an avian-tooled ebony leather cover, a patchwork suede and silk cover, a wax-speckled scarlet leather cover, a starburst-set ink blue velvet cover, a leather-bound saffron mykal cover, a bamboo-bound tea green suede cover, a sheaf of floriated vellum, a sheaf of sketched vellum, a sheaf of emblem-set vellum, a sheaf of scorched parchment, a sheaf of bloodied parchment, a sheaf of map-drawn parchment, and a sheaf of doodled parchment.

On the olivewood counter you see: a simple book binding press, a neatly lettered note, and a small printed placard.

a neatly lettered note
In the Common language, it reads:
   
I, Qais, can create a custom journal for you.  You need only to select a cover and a sheaf of pages from the bookcase.  (Each completed volume will have twenty pages.)  I can make five types of books (book, notebook, journal, volume, and folio), so be sure to ASK me about the one you are most interested in.  Please note that only I can bind these papers into a cover.  If you buy some, make sure I fix it up for you.  If you leave Ornath before I've worked with them, they will be useless.

a small printed placard
In the Common language, it reads:
   
Some obscure details about my wares:
   
Be aware when writing that the spoken and written word are closely linked.
   
You must have a quill to write, but it need not be a quill purchased here.  Inkpots are not necessary, as the pages have a magical element to them.
   
You may erase what you've written by CLEANing the page.
   
You may TEAR the page to *permanently* remove it from the book.
   
PUSH, TURN, and FLIP will allow you to work with the individual pages.
