// TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES
[REGARDING THE MEDIUM-- The pages transcribed for this entry were recovered by AUN-326, whose report indicates they were found in a disused campsite located in a cave in the region of Rathmore Chaos on Europa. (see REP #326-EUR-0247-1105)
The papers are of standard journal stock, as commonly used by Warlocks of various guilds and factions. Analysis indicates trace amounts of radiolarian culture and alkane spores in the paper, while the ink shows similar trace amounts of phaseglass and relic iron. However, the analysis also indicates that the trace elements are from within the last three months, well after the worlds and moons from which the elements originated were consumed by the Darkness with the arrival of the Black Fleet.
Additionally, there were further stains, burn marks, and other damage on the pages. Dense writing scrawl, some of which overwrote characters on the media, also affected transcription. I have done the best I can to transcribe what I could.
REGARDING THE CONTENT-- As always, I am presenting the content of the media given to me without commentary. Analysis of the content's meaning is for someone else to determine.
Along with the writing in standard Common, there are passages which were in cipher, determined during transcription to be a combination of a caesarian shift cipher, further obscured with a set of conlang lettering. I presume the conlang lettering was created by the author for their own purposes, to obfuscate her journal from prying eyes, and was caesarian shifted to further hide its contents. To my eye, the conlang lettering was adapted from a form of Reefborn Awoken writing.
I have provided additional annotations throughout, where relevant.
REGARDING TRANSCRIPT CODE: Text included in "{ }" has been translated from cipher. -MIL-921]
