The scribblings of a madman that came with Secret of Evermore are a map of the Nobilia Marketplace; you can pick up some rare items/equipment there, but it's essentially a side quest that involves running around bartering with a whole list of marketplace-exclusive trade items among like a dozen different merchants... These pages of diagrams appear to detail which merchants will trade for which items and in what quantities, how and where to trade-up for the rarer trade items, and where to turn those rarer trade items in for the best items/equipment that you can actually use on your journey...
@estarland Nah, I wish I had so many boxed games to trade-in...! Secret of Evermore was one of my favorite games growing up... I really dug the vibe/setting and gameplay (Didn't get a chance to play Mana until years later, so it was my first experience with that style)... That market, for whatever reason, is always one of the locales that stand out most in my mind...
Wasn't just the market place, the first map was the Dark Forest in act three/Gothica. Still have troubles to this day on it when I do replay. And the Yellow one was perhaps the dog maze.
@@Kreshrin ha! Was wondering why it would have taken like 3 or 4 pieces of paper just for the market... I must replay this game sometime soon; I wonder if any stores have a copy of it... 🤔
Noticing a lack of Quest 64...good pickup still.
It'll arrive here on it's quest some day 😅

Wow thank you for all the insight! Was this your trade-in, or just a big fan of the games? 😁

The notes and maps from back in the day will someday add a bit of value. Not that you’ll be collecting by then.
Looks like Circuit City price tags for the sealed games?
Good eye! I forgot all about Circuit City... 🔎
