It was a long shot anyway, just a first gut feeling. I'll hit the books and do some thinking. (I've been out of the Trivia threads for too long :P)

Hmm...my guess would be the Ayleid Reference Text. It just seems to fit, somehow.

If not that then...ABCs for Barbarians :lol:

Is it the Pocket Guide to the Empire?

EDIT: How is my answer close to Redguard?

Neither. Don't focus on Redguard. It was close in another aspect.

A Scholar's Guide to Nymphs? O_O I'm stumped...unless it's a Brief History of the Empire.

If it's not related to Redguard, but Dlarsh was a bit warmer, then that makes me think it has to do with either the Empire (clever, eh?) or similar things shipped out with collector's editions.

I scanned through the book names list for about 40 minutes and I have nothing. Stumped.

The Art of Morrowind booklet? It only came with new copies of the Morrowind GotY Edition, but is now available in scanned format on the Imperial Library.

It's a person, no? A trainer? Someone ancient? Perhaps an Altmer?
Or I'm just totally misinterpreting this...
