Does the script have to be completed?

Exactly what the title says. Can anyone confirm whether the Romeo and Juliet script has to be completed to use in the blacksmithing?

Yes. I think this deserves a facepalm.

I'm not sure if you actually confirmed it or not... I realize it would make sense that the script should be finished before being able to use it, but at the same time it's still considered "Romeo and Juliet script" when it's blank and when it's completed. So, uh...please confirm?

There are {# of versions} versions of the item "Romeo and Juliet Script". Each version is represented by how many pages have been completed within the script. Each time the version is changed, it is a different item. Once the Script is complete, it is changed to a form where it is tradable & usable for creation of the Shield of Avon.

I've finally finished G14, so now I can confirm the Scripts need to be completed before they're usable.
