You're in a small grove of trees off the side of the road. Somehow, their thick leaves muffle all sound from beyond, leaving only faint whispers and echoes at the fringe of your hearing.
A scroll rests on the ground before you, along with a quill pen. As a team, you will need to write a short message (about two sentences) to the other teams on it. (If no one here can write, the pen will respond to your thoughts.)
The scroll the bird just dropped is covered in letters--seemingly random at first, but with some patterns. Even if you cannot read, you understand that there are words to be found here...
Beneath the jumble of letters is a question: "Why would someone betray his beloved?"
The latest scroll has a short message on it, similar to the one you wrote earlier...but not quite. It seems to be another team's message, but somehow jumbled and distorted. It will be your task to try to ascertain what it was originally.

Beneath the jumble of letters is a question: "What is human nature?"

This time, the scroll is a bit more tattered than before. Is that dried blood staining its edges?
A message to the other teams...? Is there any information to go on? What's the point of sending a message to someone without any ability to control who it goes to or apparent relevance to the situation...?
Maybe we should just go with "let's all do our best"?
It seems simple enough, yes. Though I'm somewhat concerned about the lack of direction. We know that it involves miscommunication in some way, but that doesn't actually... say much.
