- FOCUS (Not your bonded songbook) : Opening the songbook, you attempt shuffle through its pages only to find your eyes blurring as you try to read the entries upon existing songs and learned scrolls. You hastily close the colorful songbook and rub at your eyes, coming to the conclusion that another bard is already using it. From the look of the handwriting and hastily-jotted name on the inside cover, you guess that this songbook belongs to <Bard's name>.
- FOCUS (1x) (Unbonds songbook): You flip through your songbook, looking at the familiar notations and well-worn pages with a mixture of fondness and sadness for the memories they bring. Glancing through each page, it occurs to you that you could remove all trace of yourself from the colorful songbook if you were to focus your attention more completely upon it.
- FOCUS (2x): You go back over each of the pages of your songbook, erasing old notations and carefully removing scraps of notes that have accrued over time. When it comes to the sections regarding the songs you have learned you gently remove those leaves from the songbook, making room for someone else to add their own notes. After the last traces of your presence are removed you gently close the cover, trailing your fingers over it with a faint tinge of regret.
