Translated information regarding Flamela's squad, Part one

Decided to go through the pages on Flamela's squad from the complete adventurer's bible and translate them myself, since the ones I've seen floating around looked dubious at best. I've included transcriptions of (most of) the original text for anyone who would like to analyze it themselves. It's incredibly long, so I'm putting it under the cut.

Part two here.

Flamela

Name: Flamela of the house of Sorn Birthday/Age: September 23, 170 years old. Race/Gender: Elf, Female Family: Father, Mother, Younger brother Physique: Height approximately 140cm, BMI 22 Favorite food: Dumplings Dislikes: Roe Cause of first death: Poisoned by a basilisk

”真の王族の証”とされている、黒曜石の肌と銀髪をもつカナリアの副部長。女王の遠い血縁関係にあたるが、女王の養子となった双子の姉を亡くしていることもあり女王を一方的に嫌っている。引退したミルシルの後任としてカナリア隊の副長となるも、女王と血縁関係にある危険な現場からはそれとなく遠ざけられている。何かと沸点が低めで、とくに自分の身の回りの世話すらままならないミスルンが、カナリアの隊長に据えられていることには憤りを隠さない。

The vice-captain of the Canaries with obsidian skin and silver hair that is considered to be "proof of true royalty". While she is a distant blood relative to the queen, she has a one-sided hatred for the queen, as she lost (through death) her older twin sister, who was adopted by the queen*. She succeeded the retired Milsiril as vice-captain, but is obliquely kept away from dangerous sites due to her relation to the queen. She has a short temper**, and especially doesn't hide her resentment for the fact that Mithrun, who is unable to even take care of his daily needs, was assigned the position of Captain.

*this part was somewhat difficult to translate, just due to sentence structure being awkward for english. not entirely confident that i got the exact nuance down. feel free to send any corrections in my ask box if i got anything wrong! **this is just my best guess. let me know if it's inaccurate!

Erique and Misyl

フラメラの部隊に所属する隊員。エリケはフラメラの相棒を務める、刑期を終えた元囚人。カナリア隊が看守不足のため、スカウトされて看守になった。ミーシルはエリケが担当する囚人。たいした悪さはしていないが、隊員不足で採用される。自身も罪の意識は薄い。

Members of Flamela's squad. Erique, an ex-convict who finished* her prison term, serves as Flamela's partner. Because the canaries were short on wardens, she was scouted and made a warden. Misyl is the prisoner Erique is responsible for. She hasn't done anything particularly bad, but she was enlisted because the canaries were understaffed. Even she herself doesn't have much awareness of what she did wrong.

TL I've seen floating around says "she has no sense of guilt" in the last sentence, but there's a も in that sentence that wouldn't make much sense with a statement like that, as well as 罪 referring to "crime", rather than guilt. *The term translated as "finished" can also mean "to graduate" (in the non-academic sense), and considering Erique was pardoned, I think the intended meaning may be closer to the latter, but you also wouldn't say someone "graduated" a prison term, so I worded accordingly.

Organization structure

EDITOR'S NOTE 島の冒険者が畏怖を抱く存在、カナリア隊。その一端が垣間見える資料を公開。

EDITOR'S NOTE Feared* by the adventurers of the Island, the Canaries. This document that reveals a glimpse into its inner-workings is now revealed to the public.**

*could also be interpreted as "awe inspiring", but just based on context i'm guessing it's fear. **really an approximation of the general idea of this sentence, it doesn't translate very well.

*this originally was 草, and the only logical translation i came across was that it's an archaic term for "ninja", but In this case i feel like "spy" was a more apt translation. I could be totally off the mark though.

Guys I need someone who can read Japanese to help

I already mentioned this before, but since Rennala's hair is brown and not black, does that mean that the said gift was altering her appearance just a bit through Rune of Unborn? It can not only rebirth people, but also simply change the appearance (doesn't require Larval Tear either)

^ I wondered if maybe lighting was weird on her model but she already was brown-haired in the concept, so I think this IS the implication for the character and we're not wrong here

So she didn't cut her own hair as parting gift so it was attached to the helmet Ciaran-style, but...... idk altered Rellana's appearance to fit Messmer's tastes better I guess or whatever? fhshdsdf This is the only explanation I am seeing? So I tried to find the Japanese description:

カーリア王家の長であったレナラは 家を捨て、メスメルを追った妹に 艶やかな、長い黒髪を贈ったという

(From here ( x ))

I need to contact someone who can read Japanese, but like, I decided to check via Google Translator just in case for the heck of it, and it instantly went with: "Renara, head of the Carian royal family, gave her lustrous, long, black hair to her sister, who abandoned her home and pursued Mesmer." Google can only be so reliable, however if you remember Ranni's ending localisation fiasco, there was a similar mistake where the order of words was interpreted the wrong way and that changed the meaning! I could imagine something similar being here.

Unlike with Bloodborne, in Elden Ring there is no one or nothing I can reliably consult, so if anyone shared an info about this let me know! If this is true that it IS Rennala's hair, then I guess we can assume either her hair became brighter in color over stress, or they backpedaled on the decision to give Rennala's brown hair because aesthetically Rellana looked better with black fdjsfdj

Please let me know if you know anything about this, Japanese script is the only thing that could confirm whether Rennala simply cut her own hair or not

UPDATE JULY 22TH: We resolved the confusion! Check within the reblogs. Rennala did give her own hair!

The simpler explanation to the brown hair than a retcon would be strong sunlight exposure; she spends a lot of time clinging to the Amber Egg now, and strong sunlight exposure can make black hair brown! Gold/Erdtree/etc do have connection with the sunlight. Maybe her hair under the crown is still black, even, and only hair that sticks out became brown!

Legends and myths about trees

Legendary tree deities (19)

Samodiva – ‘Wild alone’, the Slavic tree nymph

The samodiva, samovila or vila, are woodland fairies or nymphs found in South and West Slavic folklore.

Thought they are predominantly associated with Balkan, specifically Bulgarian, folklore. Yet as there still Slavic, they can't be even semi friendly to people. It's the Slavic way. Samodivas are humanlike creatures, usually wearing a white cloak or dress and armed with a bow and arrow used to catch their human prey. The name ‘samodiva’ is formed by combining two separate words, ‘samo’ and ‘diva’. The former means ‘alone’, whilst the latter ‘wild’, or ‘divine’, hence the name literally means ‘wild alone’. The first part of the creature’s name signifies its avoidance of human beings, whereas the second indicates their wild or divine nature.

Samodivas are commonly depicted as ethereal maidens with long, loose hair, and in some cases, wings. They are typically dressed in free-flowing, feathered white gowns, which give them the power of flight. Samodivas are often described as having blonde or red hair, tall, slender women with pale, glowing skin and fiery eyes.

Sometimes, they are described as having a veil which could hold all their power. If they get deprived of their veil, they lose all their power. If they get deprived of their veil, they lose all their power.

The samodivi dwell in mountainous areas, and their favorite haunts include the Pirin, Vitosha, Rila, and Stara Planina Mountains. They enjoy riding on deer and use twisted snakes as reins. They are extremely protective of their mounts and would cast a spell on anyone who killed their deer, even if it was by accident. The spell would result in the person’s death. Most thair stories involving them are like that, though they enjoy dancing they often entice mortals to dance with them until said mortal die of exhaustion.

But, they are not always the bad, and sometimes they appear like normal working women and help with the harvest. They would especially help women with children and if a man did something good for a samodiva, she becomes his patron or a sworn sister. Sometimes, a samodiva can fall in love with a human and bear him children, who grow up to be great heroes. As they are forest creatures they know a lot about herbs and forest plant yet as they are not so keen on sharing their knowledge, you have to eavesdrop on their gatherings.

木にまつわる伝説・神話

伝説の樹木の神々 (19)

サモディーヴァ 〜 「野生で一人」、スラブの木の精

サモディーヴァ、サモビラ、ビラは、南・西スラブ民話に登場する森の妖精またはニンフである。

バルカン半島、特にブルガリアの民話に多く登場する。しかし、スラブ人である以上、半端に人に好意的であるはずがない。それがスラブ人のやり方なのだ。サモディーヴァは人間に似た生き物で、通常は白いマントやドレスを身にまとい、人間の獲物を捕らえるための弓矢で武装している。「サモディーヴァ」という名前は、「サモ」と「ディーヴァ」という2つの別々の単語を組み合わせて作られたものである。前者は「一人」、後者は「野生の」「神聖な」という意味であり、文字通り「野生で一人」という意味である。前者は人間を避け、後者は野性的、あるいは神々しいという意味である。

サモディーヴァは、長く緩やかな髪と、場合によっては翼を持つ、幽玄な乙女として描かれるのが一般的だ。サモディーヴァは、しばしば金髪か赤毛で、背が高く細身の女性で、青白く輝く肌と燃えるような目を持っていると表現さ れる。

時には、彼女たちのすべての力を秘めたベールを持っていると表現されることもある。もし、そのベールを奪われたら、すべての力を失ってしまう。

サモディーヴァは山岳地帯に生息し、ピリン、ヴィトシャ、リラ、スタラプラニナなどの山々を好む。彼らは鹿に乗るのが好きで、ねじれた蛇を手綱として使う。馬を非常に大切にし、たとえそれが偶然であったとしても、鹿を殺した者には呪文を唱える。その結果、その人は死んでしまう。ダンスが好きで、人間を誘い、その人間が疲れ果てて死んでしまうまで一緒に踊ることもある。

しかし、彼らは常に悪者ではない。時には、普通の働く女性のように現れて、収穫を手伝うこともある。特に子供のいる女性を助けることが多く、もし男性がサモディーヴァに何か良いことをすれば、彼女は彼の支持者や誓いの妹になる。時には、サモディーヴァが人間と恋に落ち、子供を産み、その子供が偉大な英雄に成長することもある。森の生き物である彼らは、ハーブや森の植物について多くのことを知っているが、その知識を共有することにあまり熱心ではないので、彼らの集まりを盗み聞きする必要がある。

Gresenheller’s dean. Apparently, his hair often changes colour. “I worry about Layton, but I worry more about my granddaughter. The puzzles she comes up with are tricky…” (Note: he doesn’t specify granddaughter, he just says grandchild)

Other than being known for his geological surveys, he also has skills in the trade business. He is the mayor of Misthallery and a strict father. (Note: yes, the bit about being Misthallery’s mayor is present tense) “The new instruments can be difficult. It’s a lot of work each time they break.”

The loud hum of the instrument is strangely captivating.

Research delay due to equipment fault

There are concerns regarding the delay of research after a newly installed analytical instrument was broken at Gressenheller University. “Even Professor Layton, who has a stockpile of unsubmitted work, is falling behind on his research, isn’t he?” said one person on the campus. It appears that Professor Layton was also caught completely unawares.

忘れてください (Please forget about it)- ヨルシカ (JPN->ENG)

Yorushika dropped a new single and you know I've already listened to it 500,000 times

僕に心を　君に花束を

揺れる髪だけ靡くままにして

A heart for me, a bouquet for you

Swaying hair, left fluttering in the wind

箱の中の小さい家の

二人で並んだキッチンの

小窓のカーテンの先の思い出の庭に

春の日差しを一つ埋めて

たまには少し水をやって

小さな枇杷が生ったとき忘れてください

Please forget about the time

the loquat we watered a little once in a while

that sat soaking up a single ray of spring sunshine

in the garden of my memories

beyond the curtain of the small window

of the kitchen where we once stood side-by-side

in our small house inside a box

bore fruit

僕に　僕に　僕に

For me, for me, for me

僕に心を　君に花束を

揺れる髪だけ靡くままにして

僕に言葉を　君の鼻歌を

長い長い迷路の先に置いて

A heart for me, a bouquet for you

Swaying hair, left fluttering in the wind

Words for me, your humming

Leave them at the end of a long, long maze

一つ一つ数えてみて

あなた自身の人生の

あなたが愛したいものを

何もないのかい？

海の側の小さい駅を

歩いて五分の海岸の

僕と見た翡翠の色も

忘れてください

Try to count one by one

The things in your own life

That you wanted to love

Is there nothing?

Please forget about

The emerald green we saw

a five minute walk along the beach

from that small station by the sea

僕に　僕に　僕に

For me, for me, for me

僕に

For me

僕に

For me

僕に

For me

僕に心を　君に花束を

揺れる髪だけ靡くままにして

僕に言葉を　君の鼻歌を

長い長い迷路の先に置いて

A heart for me, a bouquet for you

Swaying hair, left fluttering in the wind

Words for me, your humming

Leave them at the end of a long, long maze

箱の中の小さい家の

朝の日に揺れるカーテンを

開けた静かな休日の寝起きの君が

寝ぼけ眼で座ったその

朝のタイニングテーブルに

僕の心があったこと忘れてください

Inside our small house inside a box

You awoke and opened the curtains

swaying in the morning sun

on a quiet day off and sat down, still sleepy

I lay bare my heart upon the dining room table that morning

Please forget about it

This one read more like poetry than me to some of the other songs. I felt that entire verses should be taken together rather than line-by-line. As a result, I rearranged a lot of them to sound more natural in English. As always, take with a grain of salt, this is all just for fun :)

The Beginning: Luna Interludes - Post Credit Scene

The Luna Interludes from The Beginning Novelization are so great! You gain so much insight from getting to read in his POV. I got such a kick out of the author (高橋悠也 Takahashi Yuuya) writing out Luna's post credit scene in his last interlude 🤣

Lmao it's so over-the-top and dramatic, it's as if Luna's attempting to hide that he's literally exposed standing unmasked in his Lunatic suit on top of a building (insert RED MOON) through the use of poignant prose (Dramatic Pose With Funny Hand)

私は宵闇の中、ゴシック調の建物の屋根の天辺に立っていた。

空はまるでこの街の終末を憂うかのように赤く染まり、風が我が意志を歓迎、あるいは怖するかのように吹き荒れ、後ろで一つに結んだ私の長い髪をなびかせている。

ふと顔がじりじりと盛く感覚を覚えた。

I am standing on the rooftop of a Gothic building in the dark.

The sky is dyed red as if I was worried about the end of this city, and the wind blows violently, as if it is afraid of carrying out my intentions, while my long hair tied behind me flutters (TN: in the wind). My face slowly, unintentionally, feels the vortex of my memories.

Hi my name is Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way and I have long ebony black hair (that's how I got my name) with purple streaks and red tips that reaches my mid-back and icy blue eyes like limpid tears and a lot of people tell me I look like Amy Lee (AN: if u don't know who she is get da hell out of here!). I'm not related to Gerard Way but I wish I was because he's a major fucking hottie. I'm a vampire but my teeth are straight and white. I have pale white skin. I'm also a witch, and I go to a magic school called Hogwarts in England where I'm in the seventh year (I'm seventeen). I'm a goth (in case you couldn't tell) and I wear mostly black. I love Hot Topic and I buy all my clothes from there. For example today I was wearing a black corset with matching lace around it and a black leather miniskirt, pink fishnets and black combat boots. I was wearing black lipstick, white foundation, black eyeliner and red eye shadow. I was walking outside Hogwarts. It was snowing and raining so there was no sun, which I was very happy about. A lot of preps stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.

"Hey Ebony!" shouted a voice. I looked up. It was... Draco Malfoy!

"What's up Draco?" I asked.

"Nothing." he said shyly.

But then, I heard my friends call me and I had to go away.

次の日、私は寝室で目覚めました。雪が降ってまた雨が降ってきました。私は棺の扉を開け、持っていた瓶から血を飲みました。私の棺は黒い黒檀で、中には端に黒いレースが付いたホットピンクのベルベットがありました。私は棺から出て、パジャマとして使っていた巨大なMCR Tシャツを脱ぎました。代わりに、私は黒い革のドレスを着て、五芒星のネックレス、コンバットブーツ、そして黒い網タイツを着ました。ピアスを4つつけ、髪をボサボサお団子のような形にまとめました。

私の友人のウィロー (AN: レイヴンはあなたです!) が目を覚まし、私に笑いました。彼女は腰まで届く長い漆黒の黒髪をピンクの縞模様で翻し、森のような緑色の目を開いた。彼女はマリリン・マンソンのTシャツを着て、黒のミニパンツを着て、網タイツを履いて、とがったハイヒールのブーツを履いていた。私たちは化粧をします（黒の口紅、白のファンデーション、黒のアイライナー）。

「OMFG、昨日あなたがドラコ・マルフォイと話しているのを見ました！」彼女は興奮して言いました。

「ええ？ それで？」私は顔を赤らめながら言いました。

「ドラコは好きですか？」私たちがスリザリンの談話室を出て大広間に入るとき、彼女は尋ねました。

fun fact i got a strike on my twitch for reading this during a stream. i got to chapter 20 something and i like to think that a member of twitch staff had to suffer through it.

Were you able to read today's name without the romaji? 長島 is read Nagashima, pretty simple!

長 means long, or leader/superior/senior. It's read なが.い, おさ, or チョウ. It's also a radical in characters like 帳 curtain or account book and 張 to stretch/lengthen/spread (both of which share the チョウ on-yomi) and in 髪 hair (which does not).

島 means island, and it's read しま or トウ.

What would happen to them in the rain? For Team Monolith.

It was fun to draw people's reactions when they get wet,

people who change their hairstyles and people who don't change much,

and wrinkles in clothes that soak up water.

Elegessica tries to go out without using an umbrella if it's only a light rain, but she is stopped and given an umbrella.

Rankelm has long hair, so he finds it annoying that it sticks to his face when it gets wet in the rain.

Nebicynoy's hair is frizzy from the rain. He doesn't like getting wet in the rain, so he would like to use an umbrella.

Wlorliya is more worried about the hassle of drying her clothes than about getting wet in the rain.

Hello! Do you by any chance know what the Japanese translation of Rellana's helmet is?

Hi! Yes, thankfully I do! I did find the Japanese text of her helmet itself, and when me and the girls were debating whether it WAS Rennala's hair cut to decorate it or not we did get help with this!

レラーナの兜について 双月の騎士、レラーナの兜 銀鉄で作られた精緻な防具 カーリア王家の長であったレナラは 家を捨て、メスメルを追った妹に 艶やかな、長い黒髪を贈ったという

(From this page ( x ))

My mutual @pyro-madder asked @powerup-the-revolution who speaks Japanese for that confusion about her hair, resolved in this post ( x ):

"What I've got is "It is said that Rennala, leader of the royal family of Caria, gifted her long silky black hair to her sister, who had left her home/family behind to pursue Messmer"

Basically, yes, if this was what you were wondering (English description confused me as fuck too), Rennala gave her own hair as parting gift! Ciaran Darksouls and Rellana Eldenring having their helmets decorated with an attached braid of real hair be like:

Also you can see she didn't "renounce" her home and lineage, just abandoned it! 'Renounce' is just such a different word, it implies breaking affiliation. I do think simply 'leaving behind' this makes more sense anyways since she and Rennala clearly parted on friendly terms and she still took trolls and a Carian Knight with her!

Legends and myths about trees

Forest spirits and natives (2)

Patupaiarehe – Night spirits of the Maori people of New Zealand. Dwell in the darkness deep in the forest.

Patupaiarehe are legendary humanoid cryptids native to New Zealand that hide in forests and are said to have the power to induce a trance and to lure people away. They are supernatural beings (he iwi atua) in Māori mythology that are described as pale to fair skinned with blonde hair or red hair, usually having the same stature as ordinary people, and never tattooed.

They can draw mist to themselves, but tend to be nocturnal or active on misty or foggy days as direct sunlight can be fatal to them. They prefer raw food and have an aversion to steam and fire.

The music of their kōauau and pūtōrino (small flutes), along with their singing of waiata, which songs are sung solo, in unison, or at the octave, occasionally reveals their presence on foggy days. A kōauau is a small flute, ductless and notchless, four to eight inches (ten to twenty centimetres) long, open at both ends and having from three to six fingerholes placed along the pipe.

They could lure people away from safety with the music of their flutes, and had magical powers and special knowledge. Some believe that red-haired Māori are their descendants. Patupaiarehe sometimes taught people magical chants and other skills. They were good at fishing, and one chief spied on them to learn how to make nets.

Patupaiarehe were seldom seen. They were thought to live in several places in the North Island, including in the Waikato, around Rotorua and in the Urewera mountains. They also lived in some places in the South Island.

霧を引き寄せることができるが、直射日光が当たると命に関わるため、夜行性で、霧や霧のかかった日に活動する傾向がある。生ものを好み、蒸気や火を嫌う。

コワウアウとプートゥリーノ (小笛) の音楽と、ソロ、ユニゾン、オクターブで歌われるワイアタの歌は、霧の日に時々彼らの存在を明らかにすることができる。コアウアウは、長さ4～8インチ（10～20センチ）、両端が開き、パイプに沿って3～6個の指穴がある、ダクトもノッチもない小さな笛である。

彼らは笛の音で人々を安��な場所に誘い出し、不思議な力と特別な知識を持っていた。赤毛のマオリ族はその末裔であるという説もある。パトゥパイアレヘは時々、魔法の呪文やその他の技術を人々に教えた。彼らは漁が得意で、ある酋長は網の作り方を学ぶために彼らを見張った。

パトゥパイアレヘはめったに目撃されることはなかった。ワイカトを含む、北島、ロトルア周辺、ウレウェラ山脈など、いくつかの場所に生息していたと考えられている。また、南島のいくつかの場所にも住んでいたようだ。
