Attempting to decipher the spells on the scrolls proves fruitless before casting Read Magic, but afterwards, the meaning becomes clear.

The scroll written in the blocky language proves to contain some spells for priests; Cure Light Wounds and Bless are both found on the scroll. The rest of the writing is still undecipherable to you.

The scroll written in Draconic is more interesting. It has the spell Burning Hands on it, but it also contains a considerable amount of research written in Draconic. It seems that the shaman had been attempting to create a new, more powerful version of the Burning Hands spell. He must have been working on it for years, and he believed he was nearing a breakthrough.
