The last weeks have been very exciting, and we’ve learned so much about what happened to the Storm Island people. An important Chartagonian artefact is the letters that are mentioned in Traces (on the card “Box with letter”). We’ve incidentally got hold of a photocopy of the letters and while the copy was quite poor we have now made a reconstruction. Enjoy!
We recognize the header, and think it was written on Storm Island itself, at the end of April. The final phrase is also written on common elder Chartagonian, and is signed by the Constructor, but the main text is using a different phrasing that we cannot recognize. Still, we think that the Chartagonian language is very beautiful in itself, and some words just make us happy. Sigh. We wish that we could speak it fluently.
The next steps would be to decipher the text. We just don’t have a clue on how to do this, so let’s hope for a Rosetta stone sometime soon.
