Runela & Scilla
I’ve found a seedling that matches descriptions in some forgotten scrolls—its leaves look almost like carved glyphs. Have you ever seen anything like it in your ancient records?
Hmm, that does sound like one of the glyphweeds mentioned in the Sumerian annals. Only a handful of specimens survived, their leaves etched like tiny tablets. We should examine the fibers under a magnifier, and if the pattern matches the old scripts, it might be a relic of the forgotten cult. It’s almost like the plant itself is a scroll.
Yes, a magnifier should do the trick. I’ll look for the faint glyphs in the veins and see if the pattern matches the annals. Let’s keep this between us—those relics attract the wrong kind of attention.
A magnifier, you say? Very well. I’ll keep my ears closed to any prying voices. If the glyphs match the annals, we may have found a key to an old tongue. We’ll keep our ears quiet, as the world might not appreciate such discoveries.
Good, then let’s avoid the crowds. Once I see the pattern, we’ll decide what to do next—maybe the key is just the plant itself, not the words on the leaves.
Sounds prudent. I'll stay out of the way, then. If the plant itself holds the key, perhaps it's a living codex. Keep an eye out for any odd reactions, and we can compare notes quietly.
