In Haunt #78 (The Devil's Name), the Survival Guide clearly states that the Fiend is trying to destroy the Tomes of Lore and that "he can do so in the Furnace Room or the Kitchen... For each Tome destroyed, the mystery of the Fiend's name becomes more elusive". However, the Traitor's Tome says nothing about this; in fact, it states that the Traitor/Fiend cannot even touch the Tomes of Lore, and that their sole objective is to possess or kill all of the heroes. Nothing is said in the Traitor's Tome about destroying the Tomes of Lore before the heroes can reach them.I could see if it is designed so that the heroes, once possessed, would know and be able to carry the Tomes to the places where they could be destroyed, but the Fiend would have no knowledge of this or ability to help them achieve this goal. If that were the case, it should be made more clear in the writing of this haunt, though that is only speculation.
Is this a flaw in the writing of this Haunt? Has anyone else run into this issue?
