The Wächtammer Encryption

A relic of a conflict long since passed, The Wächtammer were an ancient organization of Kinderstärke warriors who fought against the Alvain in The 2nd Immortal War. At the end of the war, a peace treaty was signed with the intent to bind the two species together - an agreement many in Stolzetürm found unacceptable. Refusing to lay down their arms, a group Kinderstärke and their Ironclads broke away from the main Kinderstärke government and swore to continue their war against the Alvain.    After decades of insurgency and war against both Alvantes and Stolzetürm , The Wächtammer were ultimately wiped out, leaving behind far more questions than answers.    Some of the most innovative and fanatical minds of Stolzetürm left to join the Wächtammer, and great efforts were spent to rediscover the technologies and projects they have been developing in their years in exile. To this day, long lost Wächtammer strongholds are found in remote and inhospitable corners of Alwaus, but attempts to break into their steel vaults are rarely successful. What is even more frustrating is the complete lack of intelligble communication or records left by the organization. While the Kinderstärke who formed their ranks spoke Kinderstärke Traditonal, the written records left behind in their destruction were written in some new, completely senseless language known today only as The Wächtammer Encryption. Instead of the traditional Kinderstärke alphabet that was the basis for The Common Language, the encryption instead uses a bizzare form of almost primitive hieroglyphics. To make matters worse, the glyphs tend to waunder over thier surface, changing direction and breaking into branching paths in an abstract pattern that evades even the most studios of Kinderstärke and Alvain linguistic minds.    While some still dream of cracking the Wächtammer Encryption today, it has fallen into an almost folk like reputation, with young [Cornucopian children dreaming of being the ones to crack the encryption and unlock the forbidden power of the Wächtammer.
