The Book of Promises is an Aenilian holy book, different from other works in that it appears to have been intended for reading by the Aenil themselves, rather than men. This has made the book the cause of considerable issue, with most mortal readers having been driven into at best temporary madness upon reading the most scanty of fragments.

Since the time where the display of a large plaque on the temple with but a single verse caused a popular riot in Idapur, information on the Book of Promises has been limited to very short snippets and vague descriptions of the content, to prevent such events from occurring should a greater amount of the work become known. Only two humans have read the work in its entirety, the Archangela Arella (hypothesised to have accelerated her descent into heresy, madness and eventual death), and the Prophet Orphaea Imperium (Orphen Vincent), head of the faith.
