The Desert Trout - Ship's Log is a book found by searching the book table in the small ruined building in the centre of the Ruins of Unkah.

Written by Taiman, the log contains daily entries of the ship's activities. After the crew's encounter with Tempoross, most of the pages have been soaked and are too smudged to be read by the player.

Transcript

The following text is transcluded from Transcript:The desert trout - ship's log.

Day 1 - Embarked on our fortnightly fishing excursion from Al Kharid to the west. Crew consists of Taiman (skipper), Koanee, Timallus and Lauretta. All in order.

Day 2 - Smooth sailing to deeper waters. Caught three nets of manta rays.

Day 3 - Fished some more. Not sure why we have to do these...

Day 4 - Sailed further towards the Karamjan coast in search of sharks. Passed more debris than usual. Must've been a storm recently.

Day 5 - Distinct lack of fish. It's almost eerie.

Day 6 (am) - A storm has been spotted on the horizon. Adjusted course away from it.

Day 6 (pm) - Wind suddenly changed, storm heading in our direction.

Day 6 (pm) - Can't outrun and too dangerous to anchor. Will have to weather it.

Day 6 - Huge waves. Thick fog.

6 - Strongest ever. Dark.
Lightning.
Sails. Bad shape.
Fish glowing
Eyes
Twisted face

The rest of the pages have been soaked and are too smudged to read.
