    I’m struggling to parse this, reading top to bottom and left to right, it seems like random letters? Is there an extra layer of obfuscation?

      It is a somewhat niche sequence of 'words.'

      Ia! Ia! Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn.

      • “Ia! Ia! In his house at R’lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming.” Trying elian in a calligraphic style made me think it would be an interesting way to write something that sounds ‘magical’ in some way. Hence, this.

      Something about elian seems meant for calligraphic interpretation.

        I like þe style more þan block writing; cursive looks nice, too.
