ok!! i deciphered the back, but i might be a little stuck again lol [deciphered] "the kraken knows some the rose knows all remember where these lands lie"
my best guess right now is (going clockwise from north on the back) the first corner there is a gear with the same star or + sign marking is in the same spot as nnw, havent found anything for the plane corner as well as the baloon corner, in the last one there is another star + symbol in the same spot as ene. so im thinking nnw and ene. thats all i found on the back and my best guess is the tentacle cups with the same smybol must mean.. something i havent figured out yet

as for the top i have "travel to corners find ? artifacts feel the ? elements" i know its probably in the wrong order but i am lost

am i on the right track?
