Every stat is a checkable fact about the actual book, not a designer's mood. Bars are drawn against the highest value any book reaches.
Why these numbers
The game's own explanation, as a reader sees it in the backpack.
Three books, written to answer the Christians who said his friends were suicides, not saints.
He does not describe the executions gently. He wants the reader as angry as he is.
He was in the room for some of this and heard the rest from men who were.
Written in the middle of the events it describes, without knowing how the decade would end.
Cited for this book
A priest of S. Acisclus named Perfectus, asked his opinion of Muhammad by men who swore not to betray him, gave it — and was betrayed. Eighteenth of April, 850, on the day Córdoba celebrated the end of Ramadan, he was beheaded in front of the crowd. Eulogius began writing down every martyrdom that followed, and every argument made against them by other Christians, so that neither could be forgotten.
Moves learned
By levelling up. A book that develops keeps what it knew and learns the rest on its new schedule.
