Pick a word or hex, pick a wall/shelf/volume, then hit Anglishize to search for words or parts of them within the otherwise garbled text to see what terms you might find to inspire you further when stuck writing. For example, hex atmaweapon / wall 4 / shelf 2 / vol 20 contains words like "gay" and "bladeism" showing that in any universe, I'm still a gay swordsman.
