What do you see? Have you ever heard of “shift” in any kind of cipher? I heard that Ceasar was famous for using this.

If you have a code and use something called a Caesar cipher, you shift the alphabet over a few spaces to get new letters. Make sure to open both notebooks first before proceeding.

eodgh for example, shift it back. “B” plus 3 digits = E. “L” plus 3 digits = O. So keep “unshifting” the letters. Just use the alphabet and rewind each digit by 3. Z for example would be W. So eodgh would be “blade”. Keep rewinding until you get the following…
