Remove Curse use in Szarr Palace

Okay, first post ever, please be kind. I'll try to avoid spoilers as much as possible.

I'm in the Szarr Palace for the umpteenth time and going to get the dictionary from its resting place. While in the room I read the diary that says one of the spawn cursed the dictionary's receptacle. Something clicked in my head.

I examine the receptacle. It says it is indeed cursed. I whip out my handy-dandy Remove Curse scrolls that I stocked for a certain house.

Nearly 2000 hours in. At least 9 fully complete playthroughs. And I never knew you could remove the necrotic curse to safely grab the dictionary and all the other loot in that room.

Damn, I love this game.
