Random fantasy worldbuilding idea: translation spells are necessarily sentient, which means their own alien concerns tend to leak through into the result. Choose comic, sinister, or both according to your preference. (References to treasure changed to “fat white grubs”; proper names always appear as “the blood and skin of”; occasional references to five points of the compass.)
