Yes... The remaining three gave VI (one vowel) JNO (another one!) and S. Still too few...

On a side note, I also tried the 'hard' approach: take every number between 1 and 26 from any glyph, and build the 5^3*4*3 corresponding words (few of them...). I did not obtain nothing remarkable, so perhaps the decoded letters for every glyph should come out in another manner...

I am... That may be the problem, together with a bad knowledge of english (who did not help me in understanding some of the subtleties of Chelsea: could we have an esperanto translation?): I'm looking for things which may be complicated, and to twisted patterns (the easier was for G4, but it did not seem to be the right one...)

Let's try, then...
