Objective:

As you venture through the forest of Myrkr, you and your clanmates come across decorative ancient pieces of text inscribed in stone. Each one is written in a different language, almost as if many before you have searched for the fabled object of lore. As you come across them, you’ve brought them back to your camp, in the hopes their translations will help your clan succeed where others have failed. Digital copies are made to preserve them, but some researchers still have a fondness for flimsi.

Your task is to depict what one of these ancient finds looks like, whether inscribed into a datapad or flimsiplast. The message those left behind chose to leave is up to you as is the language you choose. Additionally, these ancient pieces were decorated so do your best to make them look nice with accompanying art. To spur your creativity, these are not the only options, here are a few star wars alphabets that aren’t Aurabesh (that one you should be able to find easily enough).

• Old Jedi
  
• Common Sith
  
• Trade Huttese
  
• Droid
  
• Mando’a
  
• Geonosian
  

How to Submit:

Submit through the site. Formats: .png, .jpg. Include the name of the language you chose to depict. Additionally if you chose a language other than one listed above, then also include a link to a picture of its alphabet in the submission box. Traditional and digital mediums accepted.
