Summary of Receipt
New Guy mentions that he is definitely a human and not at all a demon and not at all from a certain plane of hell with a lot of water (Mayda) and definitely unable to read High Demon (he can, but barely), which is a language hidden in the Grimoire. He warns the CaD not to say the transliterated words since they may be a spell.

Hello associates!! I have been very busy, yes very busy indeed in trying to learn the language in the book. Well, ok, well, let me rephrase that. I already know how to read French and Latin, which is what most of the text is in, ok. But there is some other language hidden deeper in the text. It looks like, ok, so I think it looks like High Demon. Or it looks like what I think High Demon probably looks like.
Which, you know, as a human, that would be pretty hard for me to read. And even if, and this is a purely hypothetical if, if I were to be from the Otherside, well, ok, I would not be a High Demon. I would probably be considered, well, ok, if I had to think of what I would be considered, this is what I would be considered, I would be called a Lower Demon. If this were the case, of course. Though then again, if I were to be any sort of demon at all, ok, I would probably be from a plane with lots of water. I do enjoy the splishing and splashing fun of wetness. But, ok, but, so, that watery plane is not like the other planes in that there isn’t the same hierarchy. I do not know if there even is a demon from that plane who could read this gibberish language.
Ok, well, perhaps gibberish is too mean a word. It is not gibberish. It is just hard to read with my eyes. I’ve been staring at it for a few hours, and still, I can barely understand what it says. But, ok, but do not worry!! I am still a very useful human boy because I can translate it into more legible characters, ok, but of course, it is still mostly gibberish to me. DO NOT SPEAK THESE WORDS!! I DO NOT KNOW IF THEY ARE A SPELL!!! Usually, it’s not a good idea to speak high demon anyway if you don’t know what you’re saying. Or any language for that matter, ok? You could say something rude, and that would be, well, that would be very unfortunate. Anyway, this is what I think it roughly translates to in Englishish.
Oh Ty Rip Atnamrod Al Ed Noi No Nia Te Sack Al Usack Lam. Odd Nom Retni Yougee Vom Jack Null Kick Al Um Reflam.
I recognize some of those words from some spells that Jeri says. He says “al ed” a lot in his spells. Yes, ok, so what does “al ed” mean? Ok, I’m glad you asked. It means, I think, it might mean a sort of like a calling like an invocation. So this is, and again I am mostly just guessing, ok? I think this is mostly...
...Atnamrod of the Noinonia Sack of Usack... Jack null kick of reflam.
Which, ok, that does seem like a spell to me. But I will either need more time or need someone who can actually read this language.
