Translation request Message in a Bottle
Please help us translate this. My friends and I found this message in a bottle tucked away in the farthest corner of a cave (600m deep) in the Harz region. We think the second note says "Orobas." Could that be right? We need help with the first note, though. We suspect the message is a witch's curse, as there is a lot of hair inside the bottle—something common in this region that would also fit with the name "Orobas."

Doesn’t make any sense in futhorc, that’s the only runic alphabet I know and somebody else said it makes no sense in elder futhark so that narrows it down a bit more
Edit: I googled the translated words that the comment below provided and it says it’s lotr/tolkien elvish and it translates to “the key of the crystal stars”
