First study of Janet the Enlightened's journal
- To anyone that follows, I make a note of words that are difficult to understand with {parenthesis}
- I think that I can surmise that the Oughough was some form of travelling {vehicle} (subnote - transliterated simultaneously to cart, raft and giant metal box), if it can be believed big enough to hold thousands,. It had brought people described as {Johns} (subnote: simultaneously transliterated to villagers, sleepers and wastrels) by the {Daves} (subnote - transliterated simultaneously to facilitators, herdsmen or leaders).
- The intention of the Daves was to create some form of colony only it seems that their vehicle, which was designed to break apart into {sections} that {landed} close to each other encountered something unexpected that caused the various parts to {land} separately.
- It seems that each part of the vehicle had some sort of purpose and several contained Johns in a {village or graveyard} (subnote - spurious dichotomous transliteration?)
- Fragmentary notes later suggest that the magic that we take for granted was something unknown to the Daves and that their own magic ceased to function outside of their vehicle.
- As the settlement did not occur in an anticipated way and due to the loss of {shouted conversation with} other parts of the {vehicle} and the loss of usage of their own {tools} the initial period was one of very difficult times.
- There are page fragments discussing {stopping} or {healing} a deadly pervasive parasitic {mushroom}
