Edit: Question for the mods -- how does the spoiler policy affect this thread? Should we make a separate post in the spoiler board, or can we keep talking about glyphs here as long as we don't spoil the actual book?

You can make a separate topic on the OB spoiler board and have it moved later OR you can update THIS topic with [OB] in the title and request that it be moved to the OB spoiler board.

Please don't post plot spoilers though.

Spoilers-safe content: Let's go back to WoK for a while, more precisely – to its back cover. I straightened the Void "essence" glyphs from the voidbinding svg some good soul made (I just run it throught polar coordinates filter + vectorization to make them prettier). They turned out to look very much like normal glyphs.

 

I wonder, can we somehow read those or match them to something (the Unmade, maybe?).
