The Dark Prognosticus.
“Though the man in red shall wield formidable powers, one shall stand against him. The man in green shall use the Chaos Heart's power to bring darkness to all.”
Count Bleck quoting from the Dark Prognosticus, Super Paper Mario

The Dark Prognosticus is a book of prophecies that appeared in Super Paper Mario. The author of the book and the source of his knowledge is never revealed in the game, though Carson hints that Dimentio may have been the author. At the beginning of this powerful object is a warning text: anyone who has possessed the book has never found happiness. Count Bleck, the final owner, wants to use this book in hopes of "destroying all worlds". The Light Prognosticus was created to counter this book.

Over the years, many have fought over the Dark Prognosticus. Entire countries fell over the fight for it. Ironically, the fall of these countries were already predicted in the book itself. The reason it is forbidden to speak about the Tribe of Darkness is because they stole this book from the Ancients.

Count Bleck did not originally want Dimentio as his minion. However, the book states that someone close to Dimentio was mentioned in the book, so Bleck took him into minionship. The Dark Prognosticus also states Luigi (simply called the "man in green") is the perfect host for the Chaos Heart.

After the events of Super Paper Mario, the Dark Prognosticus "faded back into history."
