Hello!
I have started FotR again, and today I found something that made me wonder:
When the Felloship was in Khazad-dûm, they entered the chamber of Mazarbul, Balin's tomb. There they found a book of records: The Book of Mazarbul, that spoke of the quest to reclaim Khazad-dûm. Gandalf gave the book to Gimli and to give it back to Dáin, if he ever got the chance.
So what happened to it? To my recollection there was no further mention of it, but maybe I just missed it.
If anyone knows, please let me know! Are there any theories?
