Wood - Elm - 1940

Sterling, having a hard time focusing on any single aspect of magic, unintentionally spent much of his time finding correlations and creating inter-disciplinary textual works.
In his short work on Leestrium, he found that the wood from those trees most prized by flusters also worked best for creating books on runes. An excerpt from Runes: Classification and Usage says, “I conjecture that Leestrium, leaving behind particles of absorbed minerals, the incorporated said minerals become fused to the very new growth fibres during a tree’s growth process.” In his chapter on writing runes, he adds that ‘scribing’ the runes onto the Leestrium infused paper before using a quill to ink them led to runes that were more prone to protection from weathering and stayed indelible longer.”
For your 3rd task, you must find the place where the books are kept. It is marked by a silver beacon on the landscape. Below lies a finger length piece of rosewood scribed with three Elder Futhark runes, your final code that will transform your prize! Decipher the runes to find the letters they represent, then like the other codes, add them to this address to access your final page.
