[QUOTE="Tokiwong, post: 1463407, member: 961"] [I]Mr. Kaufman, I must apologize, I did recognize those figures right off, but I was quite shocked to see them, at least in the format you showed me. Those symbols, well that alphabet has actually formed the basis of an obsession that has lasted nearly six years, till last night. It was six years ago, that I first found the alphabet in the mountains of the Andes, on some ruins. I could not make heads or tails of it, so I shelved it after nothing came out of it. But I found the script again, while in Egypt working with some Egyptologists, they were found in an unmarked tomb, and it sparked my interest once more. Over the years I have encountered this script, but I have never been able to discern where to start, its structure is not like anything I have encountered. But last night you handed me the keystone, the Rosetta stone as it were. There is both a numeric and symbolic structure to this language, and someone knows how to crack that code, and transcribe the text. I will warn you that my translation is rough at best, if not early, and the wording is cryptic, but here it is as best as I can decipher it: [color=red]Mammon, my master, feed upon my sacrifice and grant me strength.[/color] I am not quite sure what significance this is if any, but the text looks like someone was either trying to learn how to write this alphabet or they were trying to teach someone else, either way, if you come across this script again, I would not mind looking at it for you.
