Well, that was quick. Barely hours after Game Informer‘s spartan-yet-intriguing cover art reveal for The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, intrepid fans have already gone and t𒊎ranslated the mysterious text at the back of the mag.
Of course, the fact that Game Informer itself key for the text on their website helped matters, but still, it’s nice to see that did what I and doubtless other gamers were too busy or lazy to do themselves.
Check out the text and translations, unaltered.
