So glad you enjoyed it! And hope you didn't run into too many errors in the decoding of it, I found at least one...my talents lie more in making the things up, not in executing them.
I've had Ori crack the code, not quite sure how he did it. I picture him as a learnèd and clever fellow, so I suppose he could have known something about these matters.
Thanks for your comment, I've learned about Vigenère ciphers today! Cryptography is actually a subject I know precious little about officially, though I have the proper sort of inclinations to make codes up. I think I did one a long time back.
And I am very impressed with your writing and encrypting in Quenya. =D And trying to recall the ciphering instance in Mirages, thinking it was in the Númenor bit?
Ah not to worry, I doubt motley!Sauron is going anywhere. My brain is pinging around a bunch of ideas anyway, and I should probably purge a couple before it overloads.
