The following document was compiled by various individuals primarily working under Mander of Trebizond.

Iron Script is Ferrum's equivalent of the English alphabet. The NPCs refer to English as "Common," so Iron Script is just the Common alphabet. Their spoken language is almost exactly the same as ours, so writing in Iron Script is surprisingly simple once you figure out. Iron Script is phonetic, however, so it isn't an exact one-to-one translation. We're going to have to get used to different letters for the "A" in cat, father, and share. Asterisks are placed in words to separate syllables.

One last thing: Blood Script luckily uses the standard Arabic numerals we're used to, so we won't have to learn how to count again.

The following cipher will have to be handwritten. We will upload images to the BloodNet for ease of use.
