2nd page translation has been finished and cross referenced with the commentaries! Page 1 is also translated, once I figure out how the pieces go together I should be pretty close to done.
THIS MOTHERFUCKING THING:
IS DRIVING ME NUTS!!! Like a third of these look like characters I recognize, half of them seem to be upside down, and some of them are just straight up not daedric characters as far as I can tell??? Or Martin’s handwriting is just atrocious I suppose that’s technically possible. Theres only like 20 characters and YET i sit here and struggle.
Anyway the reason I threw the actual ritual into my translation queue is that I’ve decided to just go balls to the wall and design my own pages of the xarxes instead of trying to reference the eso ones, so I need all the reference material I can get. The eso ones are….fine… but they just arent as punchy as the ones we see in oblivion and I don’t think they carry over the aesthetic well. And god damn it I’m an artist if I can’t design two convincing pages of an evil spooky book thats a skill issue lmao.
