Description summary:
The success description varies based on the Placeholder Bookseller Airs.

Airs	Description
0 - ?	[...] diary entries, poems, love letters with the names blacked out. The anonymous author seems to be the lady-in-waiting of a princess [...] she writes very little about said princess – scattered notes about 'mirrored feathers' and 'the sound of grinding glass'.
