Shadow Note Translation (Fleshy Lump)

Introduced:  Taste of Twilight Related Quests:  Aerbax's Prodigal Shadow Updated:  Dark Materials

Originally dropped by presumably a Shadow and later found in the Orphanage Wing.

Fleshy Lump

A thin, membranous, unidentifiable life form, with script burned into its flesh. The characters appear to be cut off, as if some of the message were missing.

Translator Speech:

You give Bretself the Translator Fleshy Lump.
Bretself the Translator tells you, "Another of these lumps? I just got the slime off my hands from the last one."
Bretself the Translator tells you, "Hm. I confess I don't understand this. Oh, I can translate it well enough, but... You say this was carried on powerful Shadows?"
Bretself the Translator gives you Shadow Note Translation.
Bretself the Translator tells you, "It's nothing like any Shadow missive I've encountered before. Usually they speak almost as we do. This is... like dark poetry. I do not understand what this message's implications are."
