So there I was, minding my own business, pondering the wonders and mysteries of axes and ale (both of which are amazingly important). If you haven't pondered these, you really should. Anyway, I'm getting off topic. So suddenly, there was this brilliant flash of light, and these things fell on the table in front of me!! I almost spilled my stout, but you can all rest easy - I didn't, the stout is safe. So I found these... I looked at them for a while, but I don't think I can figure them out. What do you guys think? That's the first one. Here's the second. See? I can't read that! Maybe one of you more scholarly types can figure this out. Oh! One more thing. I found this in me beard! Must have fallen there! Almost fell into me stout, which obviously would have been a travesty. I think a few others have appeared in other places, too, from what I am hearing... maybe it's worth looking for all of them? I'd like to help, but as I mentioned before, I'm pretty busy with my musings. I'm interested to hear what you guys find, though! Best of luck! *ponder... ponder... ponder..."
Here's a link to the composite of the shards that we actually discovered so far. I've fixed 9 (it looks like they resized it, it had artifacts and was slightly too small). http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/...iscodshards.jpg I'm still working on putting the "discovered" (note the quotes) shards together with that. Stay tuned.
Loggin in know is this Erudish? They really need and easier way to find the fonts...(I like lore, not good with searching through the EQ2 icons, especially with the all my screen shots dissapearing from the screenshots folder since Yekesha).
Im just treating this like a cryptogram. Might take longer but I got no access to fonts and not sure this is a known one. On glass #1 I got the first line so far as.... FROM THE VAULTS OF ELARAD I HAVE _A_A_ _ _ TO TRANSLATE Will post more as it makes sense but thats a beginning..... if correct at all. I'm just using standard reasoning with characters. EDIT: Man I need glasses with these fonts!
Ladies and Gentlemen of the History and Lore boards... SPOILER: The divided, Reunited! Translators, to you I now entrust this puzzle My work here is done
I do have access to the font, and it's still pretty tough.. Erudish is hard on the eyes. I started to translate the second pannel, and I seem to be getting a lot of gibberish so far.. :/

No problem! Hopefully you all are much faster at this than I am (an hour for four words and some gibberish.. *shakes fist at Erudish*) or we could be here for the next week.
