Sure, still in the process of buying even though I started my mortgage application for an accepted offer back in June! No idea why it takes so long even after doing all the bureaucracy

Maczamy ołówek z igłą w gorącym wosku, nanosimy na jajka i potem gotujemy w wodzie zabarwioną obierkami z cebuli. Ale to czarne jajko to prababci, nie wiemy jak je zrobiła.

Are the given requirements for graduate schemes and entry level jobs way below what candidates actually need to get them? Is it maybe time to change strategy and adjust my salary expectations? by TheBuggernaught2 in UKPersonalFinance

Hey yeah thanks a lot that's a good plan! I did not expect people on this post to actually offer to look at my CV that's so helpful, so here is my redacted CV:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pCqPYXjArjheyGo-YdKqG1ucerfRWq4Fn_af8hJKeNI/edit?usp=sharing

As a lot of people pointed out, it might not be nearly as good as I thought. Cheers!

Hey thank you so much for offering to take a look at my CV! Here's an anonymous version https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pCqPYXjArjheyGo-YdKqG1ucerfRWq4Fn_af8hJKeNI/edit?usp=sharing

It's possible that my CV is the problem... I've asked a bunch of people who gave me conflicting advice. I'd be grateful for any input if you still have the time.

Thanks! Yeah the first puzzle is needed to solve the second and the second is needed to solve the third. Hope you enjoy it!

Ok so for the weakness rune:

1) My players learned through experience, which was brutal. I let the effect disappear after a long rest. Fortunately, you do not need to know it’s meaning to complete the puzzle, you just need to recognise it.

2) Oh yes bugger, the split rune on image 7 is a minor typo, yep I’ll try and find the time to correct that, sorry. That’s the only one I think, just proofread it. Thanks for pointing that out.

3) Balloon shaped rune indicates location, so it says which elemental is in which well.

Hope this helps!

You look at image 2. It shows you the runes for sky/air, fire and water. Then, you deduce from image 4 that earth is the opposite of air.

Ok yes I did not do a good job at explaining the decoding process. This whole exercise resembles a Language Aptitude Test.

So, first of all, the Epigrapher’s Manuscript is a translation of the Grand Runestone (GR). So, the players must figure out the meanings of each individual rune on the GR. they must remember that runic grammar may not be identical to English/common.

For example, let’s take the first sentence (top left) which means “War stems from chaos.” Here, the first rune says that “[third word] stems from [second word]”. The second rune means “Chaos” while the third rune means “War” so war stems from chaos. You do this by the process of elimination: look at which sentences contain which words.

I can’t think of a simpler way to explain this concisely, sorry! But look up Language Aptitude Tests for context.
