Team Log

Mission 1

• Decode the ranger code.
• The grid provided on the team log is a modified version of an Elian script cipher.
• Use the handwritten grid on the team log to determine the corresponding letters of the alphabet.
• Write the letter corresponding to its number on the grid. For example, A = 1, B = 2, etc.
• The symbols on the team log comments section then represent one of the letters on the grid.
• For example, the center box looks like a square. Since "e" is the first alphabetical letter in this square, "e" in the code is a square with one dot in it "N" is a square with two dots, and "w" is a square with three dots.

Town Map
