Crisis Correspondence

Start of stack of letters.

Letter From Vella to Renna:
While working on the Lutilanic Ruins Site Project. We discovered several completely intact phrases in Innaru. While your Lexicon is excellent tool, I don't have the skills to use it appropriately along with all of my staff here. Could you please translate the texts we have found. I have requested that Octavain redirect your work to us, so we can get direct translations, but I have listed a few here we have recorded.
Shum Aulus,
Librarian Vella

Letter From Renna to the Lutilanic Ruins Site:
Snio Muv,
  I have translated the following texts for you. I have written the instructions on how to properly use the lexicon for this set. However, there seems to be a mistake within some of the wording, or at the least the translation would appear to give something bizarre. Can you confirm the lettering of the words listed below. If these are correct then the translations should be accurate, whatever they mean.
  ngeʘeyu, ʘětho, and lhubu
    Shum Aulus,
Archivist Renna

Report from the Lutilanic Ruins Site to the Crown:
Please examine the following texts provided. I have given the proper translations in this letter provided by our best expert in the Innaru Blank Speech.
ngeʘeyu ɵ̤xu tulu lhubu ro ɵ̤ʘa xo oʘo rělo
xuɵ̤ ringa ngexě ʘětho xuɵ̤ ʘětho i rɵ̤ra lhubu
oʘi ɵ̤ʘa i ʘorɵ̤ba oʘo a lhileyo i ngele
The End is coming, I'm certain of it. If what this passage says is true then we need to begin preparations. I would like to press for a task force. This may be the crisis we all have feared even before the founding of the Imperium. While such a text would suggest it to be a mere rumor at that. I would highly advise that this culture was not known to put stock in fiction. Their magical prowess was much higher then before our time. Please consider our request.
Shum Aulus,
Librarian Vella

Letter from the Imperium Ravens to Imperium Archives:
Head Archivist,
We request you pool your resources into examining the situation at the Lutilanic Ruins. Your librarian's evidence needs to be confirmed. The already discovered evidence about such an event has suggested that it would be impossible for it to occur again. Please examine her work.
Shum Aulus,
Prurnáám

Letter from Octavian to Renna:   Archivist Renna,   You are being reassigned from the Lutilanic Ruins project. I am changing up the assignments of the other Archivists to fit better with our new directive. You will be tasked with translating all of our major texts into a new language discovered through the Dreamscape. While your assistance in the translation of the Innaru texts was useful, the Crown deems this to be a priority. If you have any further questions please turn them towards Irven Corus who has headed this for sometime.     Shum Aulus,   Ellus Octavian  
Letter from Octavian to Vizmir   Old Friend,   ngeʘeyu ɵ̤xu tulu lhubu ro ɵ̤ʘa xo oʘo rělo   You were correct. I have gotten word to keep this classified, but your assistance is required dealing with the aftermath. Please clean up the holes among our friends. I am tied up dealing with the Bloodline to finish it myself.   Shum Aulus,   Ellus Octavian  
Letter from Renna to Corus:   Assistants Corus,   You are to be reassigned to work on a series of texts provided by Vella. I want you to cross reference these statements with that of our records on the Circle. Please examine the words oʘi and lhila when you do. I will be taking over the Anvil Translations completely.   Shum Aulus,   Archivist Renna    
Letter from ███████ to F:   F,   I am taking a big risk sending you this letter. The language you found in the sanctuary matches the ones found in the ruins. What you fear is coming. I would say we only have twenty years before it will come to pass. You need to speed up your search and act quickly. The Court might be able to help deal with some of the "issues" I have found. Send aid soon.   Your Friend,   Mouse  
Letter from: Eurrusius to Trysia   Trysia,   I request your audience in Pentanna when you are able. I plan to be there for the next few months dealing with some paperwork. As the Gryphor representative I need your advice on an ongoing situation with the Imperium. Please bring anything you know about lhila and her connection to the Dreamscape. I need to make a decision that will have vast repercussions. You have always been a good friend when I have needed it.   Sincerely,   Your Best Friend.  
Letter from ███████ to Vella:   V,   Listen to the following instructions. We both know what you found and what you have kept quiet about. We know who she is and why you seek to be relocated to the Carawands. If you leave on that ship you will not make it there. Instead travel west stop at the edge of the Grand Roadway. Speak with a man named ████. He will take you there safely. Do not trust ████████████ ███████.   Your Friend,   ███████  
Report from Imperium Archives to Imperium Ravens:   We have reviewed the findings and found them inconclusive. The task force as requested is not needed and the reports have been classified. There is no danger and there is nothing that we should worry about. The Imperium has lasted for centuries and has not fallen under any threat if one existed. A final report will be sent in the next few days.   Zov ipop má prirvi

This was mysterious and interesting! Cool way of handling the challenge! Are you going to add translations or linked language (I think they are required for the competition?)   I found a couple of small typos: "Could you please translated" " I have requested that Octavain send you too us to direct translations" "The already proven evidence about such an event has suggested that it would be impossible for such an event to happen again." ^This has such an event two times
