I watched Fred walk away, and my eyes followed her down the hall. Well parts of her. She was so lovely, all of her. I sighed, and turned my eyes back to the scroll I'd been trying to unravel. It wasn't in the tradition Latin, Summarian, or even a mixture of Sumerian and Tundrian like I first thought.
Instead, it seemed to be a composite of Latin and something else. A demon language to be sure. So far, the words I'd been able to unover were "souls" and "trees". Not much to go on. Something was fortold. Then again, isn't always. Like Fred's eyes, these things can go on forever, a deepening liquid pool of..
What was I doing? Oh yes, the scroll. I scribbled "soul" and "tree" then started trying to invert the language, hoping that perhaps some of it were in a code that used the transposition of lettering.
"kwhazan"
That was what the letters added up to in English, but still, no word that I'd ever seen. It might have been "quwh..." also, those translations can be tricky things. And it didn't matter. Neither were words I had any clue about.
Looking up, it was a quarter to 12. I had bee after this one word for hours.
Didn't know about anyone else, but I needed a break. I picked up the phone, and dialed the lab from memory. Perhaps Fred would fancy a bite out.
