(It's a paper slip, upon which are written tiny letters.)

(The only thing that stands out is "RM-12b.")

(It's rumoured that Perento, the fortress commander of Heiron, is good at decoding encrypted messages.)

• "I'll need Heiron to figure this out."

While fighting with a Pretor, you found a paper slip on which strange letters were written. Ask Fortress Commander Perento, a decryption expert, about it.

Yes, what is it? This text will not decipher itself.

Do you see this arrangement here...and here? Simply fascinating.

Speak, child. And make haste. What brings you here?

• "I found this, and thought you might be interested...."

RM-12b? You thought this was encrypted? It's no code, it's a name tag.

We see these sometimes attached to Lepharist test subjects. RM, RM...that's the base in Poya Jungle! And "12" must mean that it was subject number 12...but "b?"

Congratulations. You've managed to bring me something more interesting than these codes. Leave this with me--I want to have a closer look. And take this for your troubles.

While fighting with a Pretor, you found a paper slip. "RM-12b" was written on it, so you took it to Fortress Commander Perento to find out its exact meaning.

Perento said that it's not an encrypted text but the label of a test subject created by Lepharist Revolutionaries, and asked you to give it to him for further study.
