The central chamber of Mithalas Cathedral is the strangest one I have seen yet and the most illegible. Makes me think I am making a mistake here but I see no evidence of letters that were once there.

I glanced at it, though not long enough to ruin my work. Though I wonder if that makes my game a bit pointless now.
I will still be updating my main post with ones that I find, in case anyone is interested.

General / Aquaria Language
« on: December 22, 2008, 03:08:22 am »
Hello,
Currently I am embarking on a little project while playing through Aquaria. I really like the language within the game and am working on translating it to english. It seems to be going fairly well so I thought others might be a little interested, if no one has done this before (I'm sure the designers already know it, but don't spoil it for me!). This has less become the game I originally meant it to be and more a chronicle of all the writing within the game. If you know of any that I have missed, please let me know (preferably with screenshots!).
Forgive any errors as I am mostly just guessing from what I can figure out. But I am having fun while doing it!
(Spoilers if anyone wishes to find them and translate it themselves)

Sun Temple - Boss Chamber: Kill me and kill our creator / The transformation is almost done / The pain is becoming unbearable / We believed in reason / For many years we
Sun Temple - Boss Chamber (cont.): worshiped Sun / The Erulian histories are true / I have angered the Creator
*1 - Shelf labels, I believe
*2 - The R in heretics is also the R in eternal
*3 - The god's body was blocking some pictures, for the sake of accuracy I have left speculation up to you.
Merry Christmas,
