The Sefirot Script

This singular block of petrified wood bears the earliest written language in the known world of Vaale. While it has been supposed other languages might have existed before this, none survive to the present era with any written form. This writing system, which is agreed upon to be the basis for the Sefirot language and the root of Common within the entirety of the world, is kept within the Temple of Handarul and preserved through both magical and natural means, there to be studied by scholars and those seeking enlightenment, it being associated with the earliest form of spiritual awakening known to mortalkind as well.
The text itself is a written set of letters and glyphs which are the ancestral forebears of common and included is the inscription:

I speak with verity

Zealously do I Go

Bequeathing to the Six

Freedom and Justice

This text, written out by an anonymous hand through the carving of the text using a rudimentary tool of some kind. The meaning of the text has eluded scholars and it has been considered everything from a riddle to a philosophical statement to a religious command--some have dismissed it as mere nonsense (and have been rightfully scorned for their casual disregard). Many pilgrims come to view the Script and the text it bears, meditating upon its meaning. The bulk of these pilgrims are adherents to Jubiloch, the Light-Giver and first of the gods, but others of a less lofty spiritualism also seek it out for its historical value and weightiness.
The block itself is not terribly large, being approximately three feet tall and two feet wide with a depth of four inches. The wood itself is unknown but its petrification and preservation is remarked upon as being exquisite and almost alien, leading to the belief that it is itself not of this plane.
