In Last Hope, the lore associated with one of the statues is titled "All Hail King Toknor the Brace!"

One line of description for Acid Blood: At level 3 it will also reduce armour by 5for 5 turns...

Needs space bar at 5for...
Why can't TOME 4 has a secret room where you can represent game bugs as, well, enemies you can crush like in Divine Divinity? That would be cool...

"You brought back the diamond and athame to Tannen who asked you to check contact Zemekkys to ask some delicate questions."

Delete the bolded check.

The "Huge Lose Rock" which blocks the entrance to the special vaults in the Old Forest should be a "Huge Loose Rock".

In tutorial mode, when you walk over the first infusion, it tells you that you can pick up items with the ',' key. This should be 'g'.

For me it's ',' :P Ideally it should show what you currently have assigned, instead of being hard text.

The description for the new race has "they SPEND many centuries" instead of "they SPENT many centuries"
<DarkGod> lets say it's intended

when you first enter the temple of creation, "you should be crushed by the pressure but strangely you feel no disconfort."
coma before "but" and disconfort should be discomfort.

"Temporal devourer" description -- "stubly" should be "stubbly", and "It's" should be "its".

When walking on a staircase, you get a message saying "there is a next level here". This should probably be "there is a way to the next level here".

The Lecture on Archmage Linaniil has had three changes in the first paragraph, which I assume were well-meaning, but I'm not sure of their intention. Changes that were made (and should be reversed from my perspective):

"inwith" -> "within"
"wilst" -> "whilst" (two occurences)

If the intention is to modernise the language used then "wilst" should instead be "will".

In fact, it's not a typo, it's simply the way looking at features work. It will simply say: "there is a (feature name) here". Then some features should simply be renamed.

"Whilst" is the archaic form of "while", not of "will". The second person singular conjugation of will (in the same dialect) is "wilt", as in "thou wilt".

The text in question, I believe, is this:
Linaniil wrote: It were some years now since twain of our brightest students left Angolwen, sullied by our veil of secrecy and our silent duty. It still lies heavy on mine heart to think of what they could accomplish within our private circle. I but hope that one day they whilst return, and they whilst understand the reasons behind our solemn mission.
In this case, neither "whilst" nor "wilt" is correct. You'd need the third person plural conjugation of "will", which to the best of my knowledge is... "will". Assuming the goal is correctness. I'm not sure that's the goal of this particular text. Linaniil has always struck me as a sort of Yoda-like character, with unique speech (or in this case writing) style.
