Went to the statue and typed in all the names of the symbols on my tablet with no spaces... nothing
figured I'd try that again with spaces and hope for the best.
then I'll try it putting the symbols in reverse order.
Any other ideas? We need to do something with these tablets...but what??
C'mon people... reach... even if it seems unlikely... give it a shot!
Ok, Here's my thoughts on this.
I'm convinced the tablet is a cypher (for example Fer="A", Ank="J" or whatever"). I've tried matching 4-letter words to the different symbols on my tablet but can't make a match so either I've missed something or it's not 4-letter words. If it's not 4-letter words then either one of the symbols represents a space or all the words run together (which would be VERY hard to decipher).
Or, as someone said earlier, it's a cypher with a code somewhere which tells us what letters (or words?) each symbol represents (i.e. a rosetta stone). That's why I wanted to see the image from the trap room but that looks like gibberish to me.
That all fits in with what the fortune teller is saying and with the pictures at the end of chapter 10.
I'm quite certain that the symbols don't translate to the phrase we were given on completing the tablet.
That's as far as I got but I'd lov to hear comments or other ideas - the more the better.
