callumke Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 On this page http://goo.gl/O4Q4I there is an easter egg hinted by Peter on twitter yesterday. There is a hidden sentance in both the alethi script and steel alphabet. Is says: Big face goes here. No peeking. Exciting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zas678 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Face! That's what it is! I knew Fake didn't make sense! I just just barely did translated the same thing. We'll end up closing one of these. Or merging them. I'll take care of it. Edit- I'll merge them. So as I was looking around today, I saw Peter tweet this: Time for me to change Brandon's Google+ page, and no one has noticed the easter egg yet. So, I went to go investigate. I was pretty sure it wasn't on Brandon's posts, so I checked his about, (nothing), his photos (nothing) And his pictures. When I looked at his pictures there was some fan art, and some stuff he had put up (like the Feruchemical Table), but nothing suprising- All that stuff had gone up on Facebook too. Then I looked at his Banner pic. And I saw Alethi and the Steel Alphabet. (It's covered by Brandon's head in his profile view). So, I started translating. With the help of Harakeke's and My documents, translated the Alethi (with some help from the Steel Alphabet when I realized it was much easier to recognize than Alethi). Are you ready? Here's what it says: "Big Fake Face Goes Here. No Peeking." Yep. That's what's there. It's that cool. (Though I'm not quite sure what the second word is. It seems off to me, but it's the only thing that fit). Fire Arcadia showed me it was Face, not Fake. This whole process reminded me that I need to make a English-to-Alethi document for the Steel Alphabet. Probably using this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterAhlstrom Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Actually, I had totally forgotten what I wrote there, so thanks for translating it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cones For Eyes Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 No Peeking? Does that imply that there indeed some way for us to "peek" at this mysterious big face? Or that merely, at some point that photo will change to include the big face? So many questions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callumke Posted August 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 By the way I have made a crude Steel Alphabet to english alphabet. This is not completely accurate for the Alloy of Law however. In the allow of Law version, there are different symbols meaning E and i, the difference is a moved dot. Also, the letter c is introduced, which is in the place of the ch letter on the attatched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurkistan Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 (edited) Nice find. Remember, though, it's transliteration--not translation--when you just convert alphabets. Diction-Derethi strikes again! Edited September 2, 2012 by Kurkistan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
