There doesn't seem to be enough vowels to make one (or more than one) word :/ Ran in through an anagram script and it couldn't find 1 (using all the letters that is)

I ROTed the missing letters and came up with precisely nothing. I also tried a vigenere with different keys and came up with a whole lot more nothing.

ARGs always use guessable passwords, not some random letter combo.

Sayings of Gyvann - sounds like 'Given'.
Note also the difference between 'Sayings of' and "the words of Gyvann" .

Ive tried many letter strings, with the alphabet and the actual words of wisdom themselves:

BIJMPQUVXZ ( You lot got this earlier)


M I I I I IS B I MUS B U


KFHY

Probobly total rubbish but I thought somebody might ust make sense of it.


Another thought. all the words have an E in except Work and Fly. Mabie every letter is in more than one of the words apart from a few.

Sorry for the double post

Looking at my theory above, Work is the only word which dosent share any of its letters.

All of the non repeated letters are SCWORKNGT

I am still leaning to a simple word association. Here are my most likely guesses
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
off, up, out, or maybe even faith


I used this to jog my mind
