This is the translation of the paper found in the wood (Wildwood? Wet forest? Idk) when fighting the balrog-like-thingies. It's in a lot of pieces, not all of which we have, so it's probably not in order. I tried to be faithful with the capitalization and punctuation, but it's always possible I missed something. Page lettering and side numbering is mostly to keep different pages and sides distinct, and is probably not an accurate indication of what order it's actually meant to be read in.
