Did a little searching but wasn’t able to find another one in the shape of an actual leaf like this one is. I used the google translate app (that allows you to point your camera and translate) and while it wasn’t too clear, some of the keywords that came up were: tragic explosion/blast, good luck/unlucky/misfortune, falling/descending, before coming, entering &amp; leaving, shaking, scatter, sad/sorrow/mourning, army, fierce, extinct, product: evil</p><p>So it does indeed appear to a warning leaflet as we were told, but beyond that we don’t know too much. Any other info on this, or a clearer translation, would be greatly appreciated!
