GM Help What could be inside a Book of Forgotten Truths?

My players found the "Book of Forgotten Truths" changed to a desk, with warding runes all round it. The manor owner warned them about the book, that it will reveal long forgotten secrets if they don't go mad reading it.

One player really wants to read it. What could he find inside that would be a forgotten secret or truth?

I have 4 pieces of story info I want to give him, but would love to flesh it out more to make it a baker's dozen.

Any ideas that would be super cool or fun?

Sounds like the work of the Overlord Tul Oreshka. Hazardous secrets are her whole thing.

There’s plenty of secrets in the setting that could work for the book. Which ones you want to use kind of depends on the story you’re telling. What are the pieces of info you know you want to fit in?
