Oww!! Me head!

Glass #1.... updating as I go.......
From the vaults of Elrarad
I have managed to translate
the second set of the
researchers notes I found
within the vaults. After
reading through this
account of what was very
likely a turning point
in the history of my people,
I am compelled (to) see if
there is still more to this
story.
I am increasingly
convinced that getting this
information out to the people
of Norrath is important for
many reasons, not the least of
which is to discover the truth
of what became of the
Erudites lost ancesteal home.
As much as I would like to
deliver this information
personally, I have already
fallen under scrutiny and I
fear that leaving here might
prove a fatal mistake. Thus
I have been forced to put the
translated tome within a stasis
pocket, a teleportation tear
for lack of a better term, that
should anyone should be able
to access if they have the key.
Wow.... getting better. was able to get the last paragraph done before leaving work.

Working on the third (shattered) piece now.
Updating this line-by-line (ISH) as I go.
I HAVE BROKEN THE KEY UP INTO
FOUR PARTS SO THAT HOPEFULLY
MY HOSTS HERE IN THE VAULT WILL
NOT BE ABLE TO EASILY UNLOCK
THE TEAR AND RECOVER THE BOOK
.
.
.

I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A CRYSTAL
OR STONE OF SOME KIND
BUT THE ACTUAL LOCATION
IS A MYSTERY


**UPDATE:FIRST SET DONE**
**UPDATE2: LAST SET DONE, TIME FOR THE TOUGHER MIDDLE**

Also, is it bad that I'm starting to think of some of the runes as little guys in sombreros?

Glass #2 Line's 1-3 are:
THE ONLY CLUE I CAN OFFER IS
THIS WHATEVER THIS OBJECT IS
I WAS ABLE TO SCRY ITS FREQUENCY
WITH RELATIVE EASE BECAUSE
THE RESONATION SIGNATURE WAS








* I think I am starting to be able to read Erudian /cry

Working on the first tablet, here's what i got so far

From the vaults of elarad

i have managed to translate

the second set of the

researchers notes i found

within the vaults after

reading through this

ok, I have the end 2 sections and about half of the middle section of hte shattered one translated. I'm headed home shortly, I'll finish it up there and post the full middle section.

Haven't seen anyone else post all the seperate shards yet...

I HAVE BROKEN THE KEY UP INTO
FOUR PARTS SO THAT HOPEFULLY
MY HOSTS HERE IN THE VAULT WILL
NOT BE ABLE TO EASILY UNLOCK
THE TEAR AND RECOVER THE BOOK

HOWEVER THE PIECES MUST BE RECOVERED BEFORE
THE KEY WILL FUNCTION SINCE I AM UNABLE TO
LEAVE I HAVE SENT THESE FOUR PIECES TO FOUR
TELEPORT LOCATIONS THE LARGEST OF THE SPIRES
WHERE THEY SHOULD LIE DORMANT UNTIL THE
LARGEST PIECE IS BROUGHT NEAR
THEY WILL REACT TO THIS CENTER PIECE BY FLOWING ALLOWING THE HOLDER
OF THE CENTER PART OF THE KEY TO IDENTIFY THE
SMALLER PARTS THE TEAR ITSELF MIGHT BE MORE
DIFFICULT TO LOCATE BUT I BELIEVE I WAS ABLE
TO ANCHOR II TO A SPECIFIC OBJECTS RESONATION
FREQUENCE

I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A CRYSTAL OR STONE OF
SOME KIND BUT THE ACTUAL LOCATION IS A MYSTERY

If you don't mind, can you please post them as links instead of images? Images really make the thread unnecessarily long.

Ok i am working on this slowly and this is what i have decifered so far I h a v e b r o k e n t h e k e y u p

Thanks for posting them all! Apropos of Lore tidbits, the art on those tablets/shards is just astounding.

Looks like I was right to return to the Vaults earlier today. I didn't take too big a look around though, but I'll return later. Just to make sure I cover all my tracks, I'm taking the Glowing Black Stone with me.

Based on what I've translated so far, it's not in the Vaults that we should start looking.

It could be a shopping list for all I can read it, but it is beautiful.

So far we've found four pieces of the key, through help from everyone in voice and the translation of the broken tablet. They are in:
Teren's Grasp a jewelry box in the Halls of Conviction, then once you have this one;
Antonica, Commonlands, Enchanted Lands and Greater Faydark glowing red shinies near the wizard spires.

The next step according to the translation is to find the tear the book is hidden in:
THE TEAR ITSELF MIGHT BE MORE DIFFICULT TO LOCATE BUT I BELIEVE I WAS ABLE TO ANCHOR IT TO A SPECIFIC OBJECTS RESONATION FREQUENCY

1st glass reads as follows:

this is verbatim
2nd paragraph should probably say "the erudites lost..." but dosen't
"should" is in the last sentence of the last paragraph twice i think the 1st one got overlooked in proofreading.

First glass line by line translation. Punctuation mine.

Yeah, the third thing talks about the spires (and specifically finding the largest portion of the key at the largest spires -- the TG spires). I'm back at home now, I'll try and finish the full translation and post it.

Any updates for those of us still at work on what/where the "resonating object" might be?
