Dear Homins.

Being unable to log into game for the past two (and oncoming two) weeks I have devoted some time to research on Atysian lore.

My attention was driven to the zorai pictograms. Are they just a fancy ornamentation, or an alphabet with a deep spiritual meaning? Certainly such famed mystics and philosophers as Zorai are known to be could not have decorated their homes with ornamental gibberish...

I collected all samples of zorai pictograms that I could get my hands on (screenshots, banners, interiors and exteriors of buildings, weapons and armor) and after a systematic analysis I managed to raise the shroud of mystery over
their meaning.

They proved to be not an alphabet but complex encoded messages where every part of the pictogram has a separate meaning and these "small" meanings put together produce the greater understanding of what this or that pictogram stands for.

Mates, I was truly amazed!

However my research is not over and some things need to be polished and looked deeper into so i will not post the whole thing here. But soon, oh so soon when I finish my studies I will be presenting you with "Zorai pictographic writing".

Here is a sample of what I deciphered:

This is a pictogram from a high q zorai 2h sword. It can be found inside guildhalls and at the entrance gates of certain cities aswell.


Well it's just a preview but so far I have decyphered over 10 pictograms and put together a set of rules as to how they are being made.

OOC: Mates IRL I have some experience with decyphering the maya pictograms and working with their writing. These systems seem similar in many ways. So trust me, I know what I am doing

But I would be really thankful if you could give me a bit of a hand in this: I need pictograms from male and female LA skirt (large pls )and from zorai shields and ranged weapons as well (have only rifle). I have never been inside a zorai apartment... maybe they have something special there too? I have only one screenie of a zorai GH (main hall) but maybe there is something else?

Thanks in advance
And keep an eye out for more

Heh cool!

I look forward to more

Hehe, maybe you could explain it to the devs !
And they can write something about you on a sword lol

Holy Secretcodewordpuzzle Batman... Oô !!

Man Kommisar, my deepest respect for that.
You realy got too much time on your hands atm, eh?

Respect!!

I have already talked to the GMs and head of support about this. In short thay said it is a very good thing that I am doing, that I should keep on with it and that I almost got it right lol

They said they will add it in Atys chronicles as part of lore even

To Acridiel: In fact I got so little time I can't play the game I just brought my two babies from Siberia and spend all my time lvling them But guess what I was doing on a train (4days) on my way there and back That's where I found time And this is the same man whom you have been calling a "troll" the other day Harharhar

hmmm, can you decipher something about an invasion, maybe next week sometime...

Now that would be awsome Good work Komi.

P.S. You are crazy(in a good way tho).

Have you found the one thats says
"The pale ones from the forrest will never truly understand.." yet?

Hehe Nice Idea Komi.. keep em coming

So far it was kinda hard for me to understand why all banners in all cities and all shops in those cities as well as all exits from buildings have the same set of pictoghrams

But I managed that too

and hey I have a zorai alt

Oooh,Ooooh, I know what those say:

"If you can read this, you´ve got to much time on your hands!"
