''I apologize for the cryptic nature of my communications, and for any trouble you might have had in tracking me through the notes I have left with my servitor Golems.  This is the best way I could think of to leave a trail for my friends to follow, while shielding my activities from our enemies.  I have taken the strange step of encoding notes in a cipher, using a technique that Prince Borelean employed while he was playing pretend games of Spymaster and Find the Traitor as a young boy.  It is a simple letter-shift cipher.  The key to decode the cipher can be found with Felscuda, the groundskeeper in service to Lady Folthid.  I have written the texts in the Roulean language and alphabet commonly spoken among humans.

''To decode my notes, start with the cipher text I provide here and match each letter, in sequence, against the numbers supplied in my note, "[[Ruminations on Portal Creation]]".  Shift the letter in the cipher text down the alphabet in a number of steps equal to the number it is paired with.  For example, a D matched with 3 should be shifted down three spaces to get the "true text" G.  If a shift takes you down past Z, the last letter in your human alphabet, simply start counting again at the beginning, with A.  So if the letter W is paired with the number 5, count down five steps to the letter B.
