Ashen Tomes

Ashen Tomes are a type of Bilge Rats Treasure in Sea of Thieves. Ashen Tomes come in various versions and chapters and are only found inside Ashen Chests that need to be unlocked with Ashen Keys. All Ashen Tomes can be sold to the Bilge Rats at any Tavern for 10 Doubloons. Alternatively, they can be sold to the Reaper's Bones for Doubloons and Reputation instead.

Selling all individual Ashen Tomes for the first time, and completing each set of tomes will unlock Ashen Dragon Set Cosmetics for purchase at Outpost Shops.
