I can't be any help translating, but thanks for the pic! I've been looking for both sides of Excalibur for ages! A friend needs it for a cosplay.

Oddly enough, I'd been looking for the "cast me away" side for years too! I only just found it this week! Before that, every promo pic and screen cap with excalibur only ever showed the "take me up" side. I'd almost believed that it was the same on both sides, lol!

That's what we believed, too! She wants to cosplay Excalibur and you just made her day by finding this!

Yeah, they're more than just some silly etchings, eh? Very cool! I like when props have meaning like that.

Very cool! Ironic that it's the Saxon runes....

That second side, with "cast me away" on it, was it from the "promo" pic where they had the sword against a blue background?

Yes it was

Again with the irony! I had seen that on Merlinskeep a few times, and actually ended up using it as a reference for the sword in Arthur's chapter break for Feather's big bang last year, but never translated it!

It's cool that the props people actually put some real thought into this.

I'd like to chalk it up to props people being artists too, and just love to make cool things! ^___^
