Book of the Dead Pages

Book of the Dead Pages

Find forty Book of the Dead pages that have been scattered about the realms and return them to the demonic merchant, Vulgrim. He’ll reward you with a special key for every ten pages that you return to him—these keys unlock special areas known as Death Tombs, which house vast amounts of treasure. See the “Secrets and Extras” chapter for details on what you’ll find within each tomb.
