[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

Spoiler

Sounds like the majority would prefer to stick together for now, so I'll hold off on posting the Floor B1 stuff until everyone's ready.

------------------------

Randolph combs the ground floor of Snowpoint Temple for anything 'interesting'.

*rolls*

The most 'interesting' thing that Randolph finds here is the statue.  Being a craftsman, he has a fine eye for detail, so he notices that the statue's features and decorations, while generally vague, still have a pattern to them.  Two particularly long strings of these patterened dots are engraved at the base of the statue.

In addition, on the wall next to the ice in the upper left corner is another series of lines of the patterned dots.

Some of the patterns of dots are definitely identical between the two.

Being the well studied and scholarly individual as he was (hard as that was to believe, at times), Ran would recognize these string of dots on the statue/walls as Braille, which would certainly pique his interest. However....

"Bah, can't understanding a sodding bit of this!"

....Just because he knows what's he reading doesn't mean he comprehends it. His area of expertise lay lay mainly in blacksmithing and general crafting, not symbolic languages, so all the Braille he was reading was just gibberish to him.

Still, he dutifully records every bit of it in his personal notes, as while he couldn't understand it now doesn't mean he couldn't has out a translation of it later. After that, he returns/rounds up the group, and simply says: "Alright, finished me investigation of this floor. Let's move on to the next."
