One of the few remaining traces of the ancient [[Alezan|Alezians]] are the few writings they left behind. Though numerous scholars, [[Occultologists]] and researchers have tried through the ages to descipher this strange language, none have been successful to this date.

The cript itself was recorded by etching it into plates of glass-like crystal. By pouring sand on the plates so they filled the grooves, the text appeared. The only reason some of the plates have survived through the years is the fact that the crystal is much more solid than it appears, and can withstand surprisingly harsh treatment before finally shattering. In recent years, the [[theoalchemy|theoalchemist]] [[Harv Gretborn]] managed to replicate the strange material, enabling damaged plates to be copied. The process is extremely expensive, however, so mass-production of Alezan script replicas is not possible at this time. Nonetheless, some researchers are quite willing to pay handsomely for copies of the ancient plates, in the vain hope that they will be the ones to deschipher them at last.

-MAny have wondered why it is so important to record the script on the plates. Why can't one simply copy them on the standard luminous pages we use in our day to day businesses? The answer is that the script was recorded on a transparent medium for a purpose. Six years ago, the esteemed researcher [[Wilhelmina Corinne Bardway]] revealed that is two or more plates are stacked on top of each other, new patches of text appeared as the different lines and curves joined each other. Simply put, the pages can be superimposed to reveal hidden massages and chapters. Later, she also revealed that in some cases the crystal itself fractured the light so that some of the letters and circles changed places, thereby changing the entire meaning of the text. So the only way to copy the script as it was originally written is to copy it on the original material, since it holds more information than normal paper can record. It has also been revealed that the crystal can perform [[Superluminescent radiance storage]], which raises a whole lot of questions which are beyond the scope of this article.
+Many have wondered why it was so important to record the script onto plates. Why can't one simply copy them on the standard luminous pages, or an ancient equivalent, we use in our day-to-day business? The answer is simply by design. Six years ago, in -5 [[EC]], the esteemed researcher [[Wilhelmina Corinne Bardway]] revealed that if two or more plates are stacked on top of each other, new patches of text appeared as the different lines and curves joined each other. Simply put, the pages can be superimposed to reveal hidden massages and chapters. Later she also revealed that, in some cases, the crystal itself fractured the light so that some of the letters and circles changed places, thereby changing the entire meaning of the text. Thus, the only way to copy the script as it was originally written is to copy it on the original material, since it can hold far more information than normal paper can record. It has since been revealed that the crystal can perform [[superluminescent radiance storage]], which raises a whole lot of questions beyond the scope of this article.
-These new facts reveal quite a lot about the ancient [[Alezan|Alezians]]. Firstly, that they were well versed in the properties of crystals. Secondly, they were highly intelligent, and felt that much of what they wrote had to be kept secret and encoded. Lastly, it shows that the [[Alezan|Alezians]] were just as fascinated by light and its properties as we are today, since they seem to have studied it so thoroughly. Many [[AuroAnthropology| AuroAnthropologists]] find this extremely interesting, and point to it as proof that we have more in common with the ancient race than previously believed. They claim that anyone with so much knowledge couldn't have been all that bad. This doesn't exactly help their reputation, given the feelings towards [[Alezan|Alezians]] in the common populace.

-It should also be noted that even though [[Hack And The Jacks|Hackleford “Hack” Vermeer]], founder of the [[NeoAlezanians]] claim that they alone have deschipered the scriptures, one should not take his word for it. The [[NeoAlezanians]] blatantly claim that their ancient rituals and teachings are genuine and collected from the translated plates, but since there is no proof whatsoever one cannot seriously consider them. We must only assume that the Alezan Script is as much of a mystery to them as it is to us. And some wish it would stay that way, considering what sort of people the [[Alezan|Alezians]] probably were. Who knows what's actually written down on thaose plates...
