Ode'n Silistyl
ODE'N SILISTYL
Overview
The Ode have their own text, named Ode'n Silistyl, which can be seen obscuring the name of undiscovered Locations in the Journal as well as elsewhere throughout Soulframe. It is the standard Latin alphabet, with a font / cipher:
| A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J |
| A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J |
| K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T |
| K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T |
| U | V | W | X | Y | Z | ||||
| U | V | W | X | Y | Z | ||||
| 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
| 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
Whilst this text at first obscures the name of undiscovered locations - signifying the Ode's attempts to erase the histories of Alca's people - by collecting the related History Motes, an Envoy may reveal a location's original name.
