From 3025e055791a0a282c3dac2ea12fef5f96ce70b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Meyer Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2023 12:30:50 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Copyedit PYEC encyclopedia entry I initially went in here to change the description of "unreadable" text on the card, since it has been possible to read it in-game since commit 870b124 in 2015. Then I also ended up making some edits to stylistic issues I noticed, primarily varying vocabulary to eliminate the repetition/reuse of words in phrases like "an /ancient/ artifact... inscribed with /ancient/ runes" and "when /carried/, it grants the one who /carries/ it ESP, and reduces all spell damage done to the /carrier/". The result is a little bit tighter and I think reads somehwat better. --- dat/data.base | 11 +++++------ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/dat/data.base b/dat/data.base index 625047472..e2ad92530 100644 --- a/dat/data.base +++ b/dat/data.base @@ -4240,12 +4240,11 @@ pit fiend domains. platinum yendorian express card This is an ancient artifact made of an unknown material.
