A Geersha prophecy - help break the code!

[SilverHood]

he hasn't finished it all either

but very good anyway

, will update my piece then

From the deepest and most sacred bowels of the earth, up to the world above
burnt every day by the fire in the sky, she gave us weapons forged against the upright people, and every night all stomachs are filled with the flesh of our enemies.

With your first arrival , you brought us your strength, and united our banners under your command. We worshipped your avatar after the first trial.

With your second arrival, you brought us your vengeance, and freed our people oppressed by the offspring of the usurper. Praised be the black hand of vengeance of your Daughter, body of your spirit, who has made the blood of the throne-stealers flow!"

 

[Cap'n Sissyfoo]

It all looks good apart from 'whatever'. It just doesn't fit with the rest of the message.

sorted now

 

[Cap'n Sissyfoo]

So...when do we get our prize?

I still think

apagahst=upright is wrong... sounds "bad" but I can´t think of anything better, excpet maybe if they mean upright in a sense of righteous..

 

[SilverHood]

yeah, in the righteous way I guess it makes sense

or, upright could mean walking on 2 feet, rather than 4?

 

[Sharma]

Well considering the geershas mortal enemies are the people of albion and they are hunched so they look like they walk on all fours i can say, that must be why.

 

[Cap'n Sissyfoo]

Aren't Geershas hunched? Guess it refers to the fact that humans tend to walk 'upright' as opposed to hunched over.

/edit curse you, Sharma.

 

[Sharma]

<Pokes Sissyfoo>

 

[SilverHood]

beat sharma and sissyfoo

/flex

 

[Sharma]

Was adding to your point.

<Sticks tongue out>

 

[Cap'n Sissyfoo]

I was correcting your point about 'walking on four'. They walk on two but drag their knuckles.

apagahst = Up against?

 

[Sharma]

Not read the last few posts?

 

[SilverHood]

what timing!

I just finished my coursework assignment for Uni

up nice and early to hand it tommoro, and I have all day to myself

doing this actually made me redo certain parts of my paper.... good stuff

 

[Cap'n Sissyfoo]

What are you studying at Bournemouth Uni? :-s

 

[SilverHood]

Business IT

the assignment was how the course we're doing relates to the needs of industry

5% research on course, 5% researc on industry, 100% bullshit.

Can't go wrong

 

[Driwen]

but what does it mean? Are we still gonna have to face the 2nd arrival? As its a prophecy, it would be quite pointless if it was all history now. So I guess there will be more fights against the geersha's?

 

[Demolay]

ashbat easier

 

[Graknak]

me stuff again

btw don't think too hard, some parts of the words can be removed. Basically i used Meriam-Webster to translate the odd words. it generally gives the words closest to what they should mean, mostly a list of 5-10 words that look like it, thrust me it's easier then susspected ^^

oh and upright: UPRIGHT implies a strict adherence to moral principles. In other words the brave albs with their Pallies and Clerics etc.

But basically, the whole story is a summary of the event which started in the summer, nothing new about it ^^

where do we send the cracked message?.....

[Graknak]

I agree, i demand Phat Lewt, 20p/pp would suffice ^^ or some sort of fluffy item, like Geersha Dictionairy orso ^^

 

[Cap'n Sissyfoo]

Or our statues erected in Camelot.

 

[Graknak]

Nah would take too much time, a plaque with a clicky on it which lists the names of us ubah translators ^^ Big plaque though, lets say the wall of the church in camelot size, or just on the round table tbh

 

[Flimgoblin]

reading graknaks makes me think:

"Worshipped her avatar after the first trial"

but was there not some wacky tree-thingie in the hib keep on the island?

 

[Graknak]

As i said, mine was partial ^^ and i couldn't remember half what was going one with all the "Gifv me event weapons!!!@2221@!!" spam ><

 

[Marwolaeth]

wathate falage

weapons forged

Can somone explain the translation here please? Or is it a total guess

And the tree/trial translation....can understand traalah having the aa changed to ee since quite alot of the words ending in ah have the vowels changed around however I don't see another instance of ah meaning that a letter is dropped.....unless it is just for pronunciation then the extra L is abit too surplus for my tastes and so the reason that I first read it as trial. Trouble is that tree does make abit more sense...

 

[Brannor McThife]

Ahahaha... just saw this thread... ahahaha...Geersha STILL around... what's that? something like 18 months after they first appeared?

ahahahahaha

Talk about drawn out events...

<pokes a stick at teh Monkhays through the cage and runs away>

it´s a question about comming up with a likely match that will make sense in the english translation, apaghast and upright isn´t exactly alike either.
