Secrets of Creation and Jailer's Plan Revealed in Zereth Mortis Books (Spoilers)
One of the developing themes of Patch 9.2, currently on the PTR, is secrets. Finding secrets, unlocking secrets, deciphering secrets. With this in mind it should come as no surprise that there is a book collection activity in Zereth Mortis, Firim in Exile.
These books talk about how Firim became an exile in Zereth Mortis, his interaction with the automa of Zereth Mortis, and at the end, talks about the plans the Jailer has. Collecting the parts of Firim's book is required for the achievement Tales of the Exile. This achievement is, in turn, part of the requirement for another achievement Unlocking the Secrets which unlocks flying in Zereth Mortis.
