Pages, a Captain statistic, is the skill of trickery and knowledge. A higher Pages score allows Fragments to be converted to Secrets more quickly.
Effects
The number of Fragments required to obtain a Secret at any given point in a captain's run may be calculated by halving Pages, rounding down, and subtracting this result from 300. Thus, a brand-new, Legacy-free Poet captain would start out needing 275 Fragments per Secret, while any other brand-new captain would start out needing 288 Fragments per Secret. Because it's capped at 200, the minimum Fragments/Secret is also 200 (300-200/2).
Note that since you can turn 77 Fragments into a Secret in the Mangrove College, and because Fragments get quite scarce after you scout the whole map, the main effect of Pages gets virtually irrelevant in the endgame.
Also note that there's no easy way to farm Pages effectively (no easily repeatable event increasing it and no real Officer for this stat; the only consistent way is by repeatedly creating Monstrous Almanacs), its main effect is weak compared with other stats and it's not a very common stat for events; this effectively renders the stat a low-priority one. But despite this all Pages can help you gain Secrets quite easily by killing and dissecting Lorn-Flukes who drop directly three Secrets istead of Fragments on successful challenge.
