Question:

From the book:

"info_book.evilcraft.second_age.powers_of_blood.text3": "As we all know, &4Blood&0 will dry out after a while when it is in a dry area. Breaking the &1Hardened Blood&0 with a pickaxe or your fists will turn it into regular &4Blood&0 again. Breaking such &1Hardened Blood&0 with &1Flint and Steel&0 will give some &1Hardened Blood Shards&0 which might come in handy later on. It looks like these shards can also be obtained when cooking such a &1Hardened Blood&0 block, if you can obtain it in some way ... maybe a soft touch can help?",

maybe a soft touch can help?",

The "soft touch" here sounds weird to me, as if someone tried to put "silk touch" in English but forgot the original. https://youtu.be/WaUDpdhoBl4?t=1300

I suggest to rephrase it slightly, at the very least something like "maybe a softer touch can help". This still keeps the calembour on the Silk Touch enchant name but appears intentional.

Someone will answer your question soon. In the meantime, you might be able to get help more quickly on our Discord server.

I don't see a problem with a current phrasing tbh, so I'd prefer to keep it as-is.
