Strange inscription on wall in skeleton mine (screenshots)
   

There is a small mine full of skeletons and zombies that is located near Dexter's bandit camp. (Take the narrow path near the cliff edge behind the lighthouse to reach it)

There are 2 doors in the mine: an outer one to enter it and another one after you're inside a bit.

If you open the second door and look to your right, there will be a strange insignia/inscription on the wall. It looks like a circle that contains a diamond and around the diamond are strange symbols. It seems like this is perhaps some kind of easter egg or tribute left in by the devs.

Have any of you seen this and recognized the symbol? It looks like it could be the crest or logo for some real world club, fraternity, organization, who knows... Actually the sybmols look sort of arcane...

Yes, I saw it. At first I thought that maybe I need to push it or do something to it, you know, like the switch-kinda thingy But nope, no interaction of any kind with it, so I just left it.

Whatever it is, its certainly not a big part of the game or anything...

it also may contain something valuable i mean has anybody opened the world with some kind of editor and checked if behind that wall was something ? or near the area I have seen in some games that sometimes devs like to make theyr own hiding places. I mean a virtual secret places maybe nothing for us players but for them its like a observ room not that they have placed some spybots or sth behind there but a room if anyone is interested open it in some kind of editor and see if there is something behind ehe

Well, what have we here,

Hehe, hehe, hehe, elkston, Whailor, Hagen, Daedalus & bTb,

This sounds like a straight forward question, hehe, but you's dont fool me,
hehe hehe, this could be a "set-up" hehe, because those of us who have been
in here will know that if you stand exactly faceing the marker, hehe, then you
will be direct in line for a bulls-eye "ice-block" from the skeleton mage, hehe.

It is is an "enticer" for the unwary, hehe, nice one, hehe.
