Now that I have a new video card, I cannot play TDP or Gold anymore, so I've been playing more Deadly Shadows. I realize that the text (at least the help text) is located in Content/T3/Books/English/HelpText.sch but I was wondering where the rest of the flavor text is located. Or perhaps someone has made a compilation of the flavor text. If not I am certainly interested in doing so.

Thanks much.
