Blumella Zanzarah BE not gibberish

It had been a while since I starting digging into this topic and I almost stopped when I was not able to get additional confirmation. This was a case of persistence paying off.

This is part one of the Blumella BE review in the 2002 game Zanzarah.

Oh, I purposely made parts 1 and 2 as uploaded images so that people who are logged in can see the research into this rather obscure BE instance. It has all the ear marks of an Easter Egg, however from what I can tell this may have been an intended mechanic of this game character but it was scraped along with several other side-story elements and other game events as the end of the year deadline approached.

Scattered around the game are some clues that a few of these side-story bits were not fully removed.

Kraban's 2009 work also came to mind when thinking of a BE fairy.
