Hey guys!
Thanks for sharing with me the manuscript you found. It's truly amazing!!! For the first time, we have a key to read some inscriptions from the Precursors:

l sorhwlàd vras chnàkôdi de
nsm huchràs réyzdéràæ chaz zàwomsi
But wait, it gets even better! I immediately saw some suspicious similarities with ancient languages. So not that I could decipher the glyphs, I dug into our Precursor archives for more sources. I had to sort through the many different types of writings we found on Precursor sites to find some similar to that inscription. It's quite puzzling how many seemingly unrelated writing systems they had! Maybe the Precursors were not a monolithic a civilization as we think? Anyway, after more in-depth comparative work, the conclusion is unequivocal: this language is related to ancient languages from the Indo-European family, maybe even others. In fact, given the corpus I have studied, I would say that is is probable an ancestor to them. Or at least had a significant influence on them. This is truly fascinating!
With that comparative work, I was able to partially understand some of the inscriptions! The one above reads:
When the destruction and death threatens before us
And the solar flare is reaching
To the calculator of futures we run
I put my findings in this shared file folder in case they can be of use to you.
Keep me posted if you find anything else!
Antony

SecureShare were notes documented by the linguist Antony Henry for Layla Hassan in 2020. After Layla found Isu writings in Canterbury while exploring the genetic memories of the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir, her team sent the data to Antony. Through his studies, he discovered a way to translate one of the Isu dialects into English, and took it upon himself to share translations of other samples found across the world as well as any thoughts on their meanings.[1]

This is the first part of the manuscript you found in Canterbury. It uses a cursive version of the alphabet that appears to be the same as the one used in the Voynich manuscript. Although the handwriting is clearly different.

A message from the Council.
For the labor we cannot do ourselves, we require animals of great strength but limited sense, freedom of action but not of thought.
To guarantee full control over their behavior, they must be credulous in matters of imagination.
They must be suspicious in matters of fact.
They must see patterns where there are none.
They must doubt correlations that go against their desires.
In all, they must be thought of as our instruments, not our children.
They will build for us, toil for us.
On land, in the sea, in the sky.
They shall be tools to be used, not creatures to be coddled.
Our current father Yaldabaoth has given the order to start production.
Our current mother Saklas has compiled and presented the designs.
Our current voice Samael has gathered the required talent.
Creation begins now.

Is this an order sheet for... humanity?
I can't believe it. Where did Fulke get this? Did the Order have knowledge to read this language? Try to find out more if you can Layala, this is big. This is really big. I have informed Grand Master Miles.
I tried to transcribe pages of the Voynich manuscript, by the way, but it's still gibberish. It must use some sort of encryption that Precursor boxes can decode.
Here are transliterations and translations for the two inscriptions you found in the vault you found beneath Stonehenge:
zrhogwusôd wnhæôdkwat oænos oænos sízwrid
hazàæ huchàæ chàyzæs
mnrhngwardachs Lug
In war and in love there is only one goal
The search for a better future
– Lug the Polymath
zérhúàæ hrá læsrs trás hàgwrmæchá hnomndi
hrá mlrs trás savyàs huchàch rhngwarndi
Mórígan
Fate is what the weak name their cowardice
The strong craft their own future
– Mórrígan
Not sure what to make of these. Do they relate to things you've seen on-site?
This tablet was found in Qobustan, Azerbaijan.
Translation:
Announced on this day 6, 2194 IE
The workers from the construction site are reassigned to the sanitation of the lake.
Effective now.
I'm not sure what lake this refers to. Given the evidence found, we're pretty sure there must be a Precursor vault there, and this message seems to confirm it. Unfortunately, we haven't found it yet. Maybe this will help?
This piece of ceramic was found in Jerusalem.
Translation:
This sun shone warmly inside, a burning sight
Now I sooth the wound in a lake of tears
An example of Precursor poetry! And a pretty sad one at that. Note that the original text follows a meter of 16 morae per verse.
This plate was found in the Serengeti, Tanzania.
Translation:
What was true is untrue
What was done is undone
It is a war, not a rebellion
All are summoned to fight
This tablet was found in Xi'an, China.
Translation:
2,800 shovels for shoveling
1,750 axes for cutting
880 plows for plowing
Lock or hide them.
I suspect theft from inside
Shovels, axes, and plows? Why would the Precursors use such rudimentary tools given their advanced technology? Or did they keep their technology away from their human slaves? So many things we don't know about them...
