Received in exchange for a Muddy Tome.
You
give Fanzen San the Translator Muddy Tome.
Fanzen San the Translator tells you, "This book
appears to be a text regarding the eating habits of the Moarsmen and some
creature call [sic] the Moars. I am unfamiliar with what the Moar are
exactly, but it seems there is some relation between them and the Moarsmen."
Fanzen San the Translator tells you, "Unfortunately, the text is in horrible
condition and I am unable to translate it completely. The best I can do is
create a summary of the bits I understand."
Fanzen San the Translator tells you, "Since you have helped me further my
understanding of the Moarsman and the Falatacot, I will help you."
Fanzen San the Translator gives you Eating Habits of
the Moars.

In the past I have been fortunate enough to
translate relatively well-preserved tomes. Unfortunately, this tome is so
old and damaged that translation is difficult. This scribing is as close to
a summary as I can manage given the original condition of the book.

It seems that, much like the Sclavus, the Moarsmen were originally from
another world. The text describes the two shapes the Moarsmen took, both
before and after their interaction with the Falatacot Priestess of ages
past. This piece of literature looks to be an account of the eating habits
of both the beings known as the Moar as well as what we know as Moarsmen.
The first type of creature, the Moar, is described as a small yet voracious
beast. The best I can relate the description to is the Carenzi found
commonly on Marae Lassel. The text claims that these small creatures had no
specific in their choice of food. The author mentions that their diet was
varied, ranging from hunting small frog-like creatures to forming packs to
hunt much larger amphibians, as well as scavenging offal and rarely
consuming plant material.
The larger version, the one I assume we commonly know as the Moarsmen, was
an aggressive hunter. The notes state that the Falatacot would take the
Moarsmen with them on outings, similar to the use of hunting hounds in the
Aluvian Highlands. However, unlike the wild, smaller Moar, the Moarsman was
easily tamable through its stomach. This led to it not being terribly
particular about its meals. The note mentions that the Moarsman was more
interested in the killing of competition as opposed to eating it.
This face could attribute to the lack of any significant predators on the
Vesayen Island.
