Planescape: Fallout/The story so far/Session ten

With Zahra still twitching, the group continued wandering through the Red Room, slowly figuring out the 'logic' of the place. After Hark threatened some spirits which turned out to probably be dream-projections of some madmen, the group figured out how to use the eye jars to get where they wanted, and found the 'lab in the heart', a place where magic could be crafted without the usual ingredients, where Aescher made some fire-resistance potions and a mystical 'sunscreen' for Zahra, as well as discovering the three metal discs secreted there. With some effort, Indigo, Aescher, and Sejik managed to translate the discs. Their translations (including errors as they appear on the discs) are:

• The second disc:
