I don't want to get into another debate about this, but I will just say a few things about this issue.
In the original hold - you could always use restore to find and read the scrolls. The only issue was that the Spider cave could only actually be accessed once a couple of things had be done

×Hold mastered, and Mother-Son quest performed. The latter required hold completion and going between two rooms in the Tuenan Coast hub
If you restored to before the latter of these two requirements was achieved, the game recognised this as unachieved (true for most variables in DROD, with the exception of challenge completion and mastery).
Also, the colour of the scrolls made no difference, since there were no additional scrolls in the hold to confuse things.
In the current version, I am pretty sure that neither of those conditions in the secret text above is required, and now scrolls have to be coloured as there are a lot of new ones (e.g. challenges).
