After the first few days things are starting to pick up, and you wander from stall to brightly colored stall looking for something new. Just as something catches your eye, a massive gale sweeps the plain, nearly knocking you over! Shortly afterwards a flustered looking spiral approaches you.

I may be a light dragon, but I deliver with the best of them! I have a perfect record! Or I did... I'm sure you felt that bit of breeze just now. Caught me off guard and ripped my satchel right off my back! Everything flew out, but I think I got most of it back. Problem is all the papers have been torn to shreds! Maybe you can help me get things together so I can finish my run!

How This Works


Help blunder keep her perfect record! Throughout the festival, Blunder will bring more scraps to sort through. Find which papers go with which to form a message, then put them back together so that she can return them to their proper recipients!

But beware, all of the letters are in Ursegal! They'll need to be translated in order to organize them. Here are some resources you can use:

The Usegal Conlang Thread
Common Draconic General Dictionary
Ursegal Script Guide
The Ursegal Alphabet
The first version grammar guide
The first grammar update
You can also ask me anything you like (though you may not like my answer)

To submit, send a PM to @Llanai with the following
Quote:
Letter Sender:
Letter Recipient:
Scrap Numbers Used (in order):

Translation of message:


At the end of the week entries will be judged on proper sender/recipient, correct slips used, and correct translation. The closest to the original message wins!

Sign up for the pinglist here to be notified when Blunder finds more papers!

@Saraceaser @argylion @phooka @Katsuokai @kirkfan2255 @sadrain @LaraAelric @Nighttyger @fabro Just for clarification's sake: These letters are fairly long and it will be a few days before you'll have one in its entirety. You will start to be able to get the main idea of what's going on sooner than that depending on how willing you are to make assumptions. Feel free to include these assumptions in an early submission. Who knows, you may be right! ------------------------------------------- Blunder has been busy it seems! Today she flew in a few more stacks of paper. Some of it was blank and some of it was obviously not from any kind of correspondence. Here's what you were able to sort out as possibly useful.

@Llanai
So do the different ink colors indicate different authors? I mean, it would be weird for a dragon to suddenly switch their ink in the middle of a letter.

@myrese

That would be odd wouldn't it, switching colors in the middle of writing... Unless, of course, one ran out of ink, then it would be entirely reasonable...

@CatsAndMaths

There's a pinglist form right here! Best of luck!
