I forgot what the tome is called in d&d, but here is the function.

You write the info inside of the book; the info must only be known by as few people as possible, should the page of the book be torn out or destroyed, you and the selected few will forget that info ever existed. The reason why as few as possible is because of the Mandela effect when the page is destroyed.

Anyone knows the name of this artifact?

Also, is it possible to remove any trace of the info, like even the physical aspect of the info like an object or person?

Seems useless, until you realize how really fucking bad things can get. I mean you could write important medical knowledge, spread that info, then tear the page and boom. That knowledge is gone. Could set you back a hundred years or more.

Yeah, and I plan to write my story based on the thing. But I wanted to check the actual item in D&D on whether does it actually also erase the physical aspect of the knowledge.

For example, you bring electricity to medieval type of place, then as everyone is using that shit, you erase the info of electricity.

Or in most fantasy works, deities require people to know and remember them to get the power of faith to sustain themselves, now picture a mad man who decides that gods must die and erase all the knowledge of them.

The physical aspect would out you in the dark ages. Also, if it erased the tech itself...I mean, imagine if a person erased Cars. Or airplanes. Think of how much damage and confusion that would cause.

I would just stick with the knowledge part. It's easier to write
