[QUOTE="StevenAC, post: 6318599, member: 12319"] I'm loving the slow piecing together of the language -- another really elegant construction from Fajitas, which is also presenting an interesting challenge as I'm assembling the next chapter of the collected Story Hour... :D I'm guessing that the 'triple wavy line' glyph, which appears three times on the map, is actually a composite symbol. Like the 'animal' symbol (a wavy line combined with the Ehktian X) and the symbol that seems to indicate the dragon (a wavy line combined with the Sedellan spiral -- the whole thing meaning 'hazard', perhaps?), this one is a wavy line combined (or in this case, surmounted) with the [I]two[/I] wavy lines that signify Alirria. If I'm right, this symbol would signify a whole new class of map feature ('plant', perhaps?), that can be modified by adjectives just as the others can (two of the three on the map are Alirrian, the other one is Kettenite). That only leaves one anomalous symbol -- the small Sedellan spiral at the lower right that has the horizontal line below the spiral rather than above. I've no idea what this could mean, but I'm sure the party won't be able to resist going over there for much longer... :) [/QUOTE]
