Dear Chris,

Here is something I posted a while back on VN. It shows how my ideas got started.

Thank you.

Okay, here is one of the neat parts I've been showing for five years.
 
It requires a bit of imagination - a downstroke to an EVA = o glyph turning it into an EVA = y glyph. (This was probably omitted to help disguise the third time an important sequence of glyphs would appear on the page - EVA = y ch y k ch y).
 
Starting on You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. at the end of the third line from the bottom of the page, six glyphs in from the end of the line, what now reads -
 
                                           ...9 19h19
891oh19 #K9 #k#9 #o k1oh98
4oh1oy 8e 89 #c9
 
would then read -

                                           ...9 19h19
8919h19 #K9 #k#9 #o k1oh98
4oh1oy 8e 89 #c9
 
and which I phoetically read (using the same glyph/sound alphabet I use for the code attributions) -
 
                                  ...h shesh
ahshesh i(ng)h inih ir nsre(ya)
presr(u/v) at ah ilh
 
or, when cleaned up a bit -
 
hashish, ahashish i(ng/een) in ihirn (iron) Syria preserve at a hill. 
 
Which refers to the Old Man of The Mountains who protected the ahashishieen (his henchmen, the assassins) and the hashish that he fed to them in mountain castles/strongholds in some of Syria's more treacherous hinterland regions.
 
I know it is a leap of faith to get this far, but, then, the page does show a Cannabis plant, from which hashish is produced, so maybe not that long of a leap. And I'm not anagramming anything or making up new ways to produce the phonetic text.
 
Isn't that a fitting end to the page? It produced a whole bunch more of glyph/sounds for the alphabet.

But, finding the first iteration of hshesh on the second line of the page was like finding just the right cartouche, don't you know?
