Text

An asura named Xakk postulates in this modern scholarly thesis that if an Elder Dragon were to die, its magic would be released back into Tyria, starting at the moment of death.

Read on.

He further suggests, however, that this will allow the remaining dragons to become even more powerful as they begin consuming the released magic as well.

Put it back.

Notes

Bug:

The object is named Vekk's Thesis, but the asura mentioned (originally Vekk, but changed due to a lore inconsistency) is Xakk. The name was changed because Vekk's theory about the Elder Dragons' ability to consume magic was actually developed by Professor Gorr in A Meeting of the Minds centuries later in 1325 AE.
