It translates to four letters.
And it's older than any of the runes you're looking at.

no wait... Window Hook Window Arm
Its Phoenician!
translating to EYEL in crilic,
or EUEL, EVEL, EWEL, or EUEJ, EVEJ, EWEJ, EUEJ.
most likley you mean EVEL, wich probably stands for EVIL because there is no "I" in Phoenician.

Jesus Prime,

It looks at a quick glance to be Hieratic, Enchorial, or Demotic. Possibly some variant of coptic?

I'll have to dig through some history books.
"I saw no city spread below, and no friendly lights gleaming from remembered streets, but only the blackness of space illimitable; unimagined space alive with motion and music, and having no semblance of anything on earth."
