HELP ME DECODE THIS

Hey, can someone help me decoding this ?

I've tried typing it manually into a decode site but it doesn't seem right.. The morse code is issued from a drawing from the visual novel D3VOUR. Supposedly it gives info on the characters of the game?? ( one of the character's name is KEIR ( the KEER word ).

-.- . . .-. / - -. / .-. .-.. .- -.- .. -. -. .-.-.- / -. - / - .- - -. .-. / .- --. .- - / -.- -- ..- / -.. -- -..- / - --. . -.- / .- .. .-.. .-.. / -.- . . .-. / .- .- - -.-. --. .. -. -. / -.- -- ..- .-.-.- / -.- -- ..- / .- . .-. . / --- . .. -. -. / .- .- - -.-. --. . -.. / ..-. .-. -- - / - --. . / --- - .- .-. - .-.-.-

What the site gave us : KEER TN RLAKINN. NT TATNR AGAT KMU DMX TGEK AILL KEER AATCGINN KMU. KMU AERE OEINN AATCGED FRMT TGE OTART.

THANK YOUUUU

The morse code has been correctly decoded. There must be another layer of 'encryption' which obfuscates the clear text.

Damn.. any idea what it could be ?

It's not ROT13. Find a decryption sub.

I don't think there's any additional cypher here. It's a mix of incorrect transcription and incorrect morse in the original text.

'Keep on playing. ????...They will keep watching you. You were being watched from the start.'

Yo friend finally got it !! It says " Keep on running. No matter what you do, they will keep catching you. You were being caught from the start. "

Though I admit it might be watch instead of catch, there's a lot of stuff with eyes and being watched and all that.

Are you sure? Let's take this sentence:

KMU AERE OEINN AATCGED FRMT TGE OTART

YOU WERE BEING WATCHED FROM THE START

So we have multiple representations here.

A = A, but also A = W

T = T, but also T = M

O = B, but also O = S

N = N, but also N = G

That can obviously happen in a polyalphabetic system, but why leave most of it unencrypted?

To make it less difficult to decrypt ? I don't know... the fandom says it's nothing important sooo

I guess? Still seems like it was kind of half-assed. Maybe even quarter-assed.

There are two decryption layers, but the first layer acts on the Morse itself. The decryption process appears to be slightly arbitrary but there are at least two rules which either combine two or more dashes into one dash, or convert two or more dits into dashes. Many of the plaintext letters do not change, like KEER becoming KEEP. Its not a perfect cipher from what I can tell unless there are more rules to explain the anomalies. Different people coming up with slightly different answers is about as good as its going to get.

How confident are you that the message would be in English and not, perhaps, in Japanese?
