Wonderful! Congrats and thanks to nagi! Looks like this chapter talks about voyaging between words, using an omphalos.

Any idea why the clue came with a warning?

Now on to Brest...

Thanks, mr.judkins and Elizabeth, I'll pass your words to nagi.

Ch.23 Multiversa Vojaĝado (1/2)

Devus esti neeble endormiĝi en unu versio de realeco kaj vekiĝi en alia.

Devus esti neeble, sed ne estas.

Kiel vi probable deduktis el via propra aktuala malfacilaĵo, estas eble vekiĝi en stranga mondo kaj koni neniun, posedi preskau nenion, kaj memori ec nakoku-ĉui ĉar vi neniam ekzistis antaue en ĉi tiu mondo.

Ni ses autoroj de ĉi tiu kodekso vekiĝis en ĉi tiu mondo, sub precize tiaj kondiĉoj. Kaj ni imagas ke la sama estas vera por vi.

Se vi legas ĉi tiun kodekson, vi plejeble alvenis tien ĉi memorante tiom malmulte pri vi mem aŭ via celo kiel ni. Tamen unu el la unuaj memoraĵoj estas ĉi tio: ke vi havas hejmon, kaj vi volas reiri tien.

Vi bezonas scii ĉi tion: Multiversa (blank) vojaĝado estas treege rara. Kaj ĝi bezonas kunordigitajn strebojn je planeda skalo.

Post jaroj da pormomentaj (blank?) kunordigoj kun niaj hejmaj mondoj, ni rehavigis plejparte niajn memorojn. Kaj kiel montras la paĝoj de ĉi tiu kodekso, ni rehavigis plejparte nian komprenon pri kiel funkcias la multiverso.

Vojaĝado inter mondoj, tamen, estis la plej malfacile rehavigebla scio.

Post jardekoj de malsukcesoj, ni kredas ke ni fine rekreis la specifajn kaj tre malfacilajn kondiĉojn per kiuj multiversa (blank) vojaĝado povas okazi.

Ni kredas, ke post cirkaunavigi la globon, kaj post vizitado al ĉiu kontinento, ni finfine rekonstruis la kondiĉojn necesajn por nia vojaĝo hejmen.

Jen tio, kion vi bezonas scii.

Homa vojaĝado tra la pordoj necesigas eksterordinaran gradon de kunordiĝo kaj sinkronigado, multe preter tiu, kiun ordinaraj personaj aŭ ate atletaj kunordigoj povas subteni.

Ni kredas ke pro tio, multiversa (blank) vojaĝado nur povas okazi dum la jaroj de la Olimpiado, la tempo de plej granda multiversal kunordigo. Do konsciu, ke vi nur havos unu ŝancon reiri hejmen ĉiuj kvar jaroj. Vi devas plene preni avantaĝon de la ŝanco kiam ĝi venas. Vi ne havos alian dum tre longa tempo.

Vi devas ankaŭ konstati, ke neniu ordinara omphalos kaj neniu ordinara labirinto kapablas subteni la bezonaĵojn por la multiversa (blank) vojaĝado.

Ch.23 Multiversa Vojaĝado (2/2)

Kiel vi scias, la desegno de ordinara omphalos estas malkomplika.

unu roko
kovrita per reto
kun almenaŭ 27 nodoj.

Sed se la nuraj omphaloi kiujn vi vidis estas la malgrandaj skulptaĵoj ĉe la temploj, tiam la grandeco de penado bezonata por konstrui vojaĝan omphalos estos sendube preter iu kiun vi povus imagi.

Por trairi la grandajn distancojn de la multiverso (blank), vi devas krei omphalos lau la skalo de la multiverso mem. Kaj por nodi la nodojn, vi devos krei almenau 27 labirintojn je la sama skalo kiel la vojaĝa (blank). Vojaĝante tra la labirintaj cirkvitoj aktivigos la cirkvitojn de la (blank left for omphaloi), permesante multiversan (blank?) komunikadon - kaj multiversan vojaĝadon.

Memoru:

uni roko

unu reto

almenaŭ 27 nodoj.

only page 2 is on the Wiki at the moment?

You know that the design of the ordinary omphalos is not complicated.

one rock
covered with a net
with at least 27 knots

But if the only omphali that you see are the small sculptures at the temples, then the size of the effort necessary to construct a passage omphalos undoubtedly would be beyond what one would be able to imagine.

In order to pass through the great distances of the multiverse . . . , you have to create an omphalos on the scale of the multiverse itself. And to knot the knots, you have to create at least 27 labyrinths of the same scale that the passage . . . . Passing through the labyrinths circuit will activate the circuit of the . . . , allowing multiversal communication- and multiversal passage.

Remember:
one rock
one net
at least 27 knots.

now a bunch more from the first page

(I'm very doubtful of this- just doing it for practice)
Multiversal Travel

It should be impossible to go to sleep with one version of reality and wake up inside another.

It should be impossible, but it isn't.

As you probably gather from your own current difficulties, it may be to wake up in a strange world and to know nobody, to have almost nothing, and to recall (ec nakoku-cxui) since you never extsted formerly here in that world.

We six authors of this codex awoke in this world in exactly that condition. And we imagine that it is the same for you.

If you read this codex, you probably arrived here remembering not that much about yourself or your purpose like us.
However, one of the first memories is this: you have a home and you want to return there.

You need to know this: Multiversal travel is extremely rare. And it requires co-ordinated effort on platentary scale.

After years of momentary co-ordination with our home worlds, we have mostly recovered our memories, and as shown the pages of this codex, we have mostly recovered our sense of how the multiverse operates.

Travel between worlds, however, was the most dificult knowledge to recover.

After decades of failure, we believe that we finally recreated the specific and the very difficult conditions for whch multiversal (blank space) travel is possible to occur.

We believe that after circling the globe, and after visiting every continent, we at long last reconstructed the conditions necessary for us to go home.

Here is that, which you need to know.

Human travel through the doors makes necessary extraordinary size of coordination and synchronization, much beyond that, which ordinary personal or athletic coordinations could sustain.

We believe that because of that, multiversal travel only could occur during the year of the Olympics, the time of the large multiversal coordination. Therefore, be aware, that you only have one chance to go home every four years. You should fully take advantage of the chance when it comes. You don't have another for a very long time.

You should also take note that neither ordinary omphalos and neither ordinary labyrinth able to support what is necessary for multiversal travel.

Kay, I got the Esperanto transcription of both pages onto the wiki.
Now we just need it in English...

I think Jasper's translation is quite good. (Thanks, Jasper!) We just need an Esperanto speaker to verify a couple of phrases he had questions on.

That's excellent Jasper. Thank you so much!

I think "Post jaroj da pormomentaj kunordigoj" translates as "After years of momentary co-ordination".

"kunordigitajn strebojn" means "co-ordinated effort".

"vojagxado" means "travel".

I can't work out "kaj memori ec nakoku-ĉui" either. I think "ec" is lacking a circumflex which would make it "ecx", meaning "even".

I've finished correction of typos in the Esperanto version.

Um, 11 edits later Mr. Green

The corrections can be seen by using "history" at the wiki.

I can't work it out, either, although I investigated it in several ways.

EDIT: 12th edit, marking so many blanks.
