The commands I've listed below are also on the Quill's description in game.
Notes:
- Use the quill upon the object you will be editting. Syntax for the commands follow.
- Placing editted items on your ox pack will wipe your changes.
- You only need to use the quill once, it works the same as the language ears, requiring a voice.
- You can use the ~ on any channel.
- You can not ever repeat the same command, the system will not "hear" a repeated command.

Writing In Other Languages
To write in a language other than common, you must possess the ear for the language you wish to scribe in. Activate the ear, then activate the quill, dip the quill in the ink you plan to use, and use the quill on the parchment you are writing on. You can then write in that language by bracketing the text with square brackets.
Command: ~[text]
Description: Scribes in a language if done after activating an ear
Usage: ~[The elven tongue is far superior to the other languages.]
Would Display: Anira acelal anelvya ela oilm laytyameem ane anira calalaam cillvyilva.
Note: Scribed language texts cannot be wiped out using the undo command. The text that appears on the parchment will disappear but the translation will persist when translated back into common.
Command: ~~translate
Description: Translates text written in a language using an ear, if the translator possesses the same ear.
Usage: ~~translate
Note: This only translates text written using the ~[] command using a proper ear. It will not translate any other kind of text. For example, scribing ~Nicce or ~Iracce for "Hello" will not translate, but scribing ~[Hello] using either ear will translate.
Have fun!
