Three months later and the QUEST IS COMPLETE!! [size="7"]Congratulations[/size] to [size="7"]PAZUR[/size] who answered the correct answer to puzzle on his second try! the only person to do so. (having recieved so many incorrect answers i began to believe it was a fault of my own...and in a way i know i have made many mistakes with the quest as a whole) However that cannot tak away the logic and calculation displayed to Pazur. This will now bring this long quest to an end. NO ONE else got anywhere close when it came to the puzzle, over 10 promising entries or so! The only person to respond to the Interim quest was Blackwood Forest who shall receve a prize also.(for reading my papers and submitting an answer to the question that was there for roughly 3 months...) Thank you all for your participation, even though i have not allways been 100% active. Till the next time! (edited to mention about clarifying an award some point in the very near future.) [size="6"]CORRECT ANSWERS[/size] Thank you for your kind words. It was my pleasure to take part in your quest *laughs* I'm not surprised you haven't seen me before. I haven't been on much lately due to being beautifully busy in rl *slaps forehead* Bob! of course... Z makes a lot of sense. I was only thinking of LR. When I first started I saw Z by Bob all the time Your hint on the last riddle helped me a lot. I am guessing each line yields 1 letter: Before the comma gives possibilities of letters, and after tells which of those possibilities they can't be For instance: Trapped in the source, sealed off from choice or reason Looking for a letter within the word 'source' neither s nor e because the letter is trapped Now for after the comma, the letter can't be in either 'choice' or 'reason' Leaving the letter u There are a few combinations, but I'm guessing the following: soul *laughs* you got the juices flowing in my mind. I'll be thinking up crazy ideas for hours now! Thank you for this Pazur [size="2"](Gargant style puzzles, which first clue began displayed at the bottom of my hate page.)[/size] If ye seek me out, look for something small I can be quirky and robust, I can be strong and tall Im something you can trust, a friend of the jays Im a king, im a maiden, decidedly useful for all http://www.wiipicross.com/play.php?upid=11824 small oak tree plant – activation answer = raven Text to be displayed here = Climb up high and look in here, you might see your face Or else you’ll see others within, but remember to not leave a trace. Unknown hands with unknown plans must visit her at night, A looking glass upon wisdom and farce, is what you will greet in this place. http://www.wiipicross.com/play.php?upid=11825 MDA window – activation answer = ailith the tainted Text to be displayed here = Nice and easy take it slow, follow the trail for the place to go, Through thorny bushes and arches of ash, Search for the treasure, where I’ve hidden my stash To the place that you seek there’s more than one path Its here that it happened, where they unleashed their wrath. Past the lush green meadow and down from the gate, Where at the hands of Necrovia, they did meet their fate, http://www.wiipicross.com/play.php?upid=11834 clash of ages – activation answer = snail Text to be displayed here = These three riddles you have passed with ease, but I have one more test for you if you please, Like the tree which stands there silent and strong, a defender of the nation keeping people from wrong, A snail of sorts who doesn’t move quick, but lies back and observes, laughing hard at the thick. This shall give you one name, but two names you shall say, and this riddle below shall guide you, the rest of the way. I am a wisdom, which the wizard will not know A force full of horror, that dwells not in real hell Trapped in the source, sealed off from choice or reason And pure like an Angel, that exists not in god’s heaven (Please entitle you response as Asterdai’s dream quest part 2 or something similar when you submit your two final answers) PRIZES Pazur - Aged angien(sponsered by Shoeps if we can find him..), 5 silver and a pimped grasan Blackwood Forest - 3 silver

i know not terribly relevant, but i thinkthis shows great respect fro the rules and a great idea to get new quests into the game from people who cant afford and award. Bravo!

i would like t buy a TS, i will be willing to buy 3 TS for 2 silver each, or more, please message me in forum. if none of the other creatures are sold, due to their age i will be willing to pay 1 silver, please tell me via forum. this is due to rewards for quests.

i wish to say about my feelings regarding Awiiya He has allways been there in game to help me if i asked, Someone who When active holds a great intellectual conversation. i did not require him as an LHO but i believe it is a great loss to the team, as the values he holds strong are important indeed! i feel, when interacting with him, that he gives enough information whilst still holding a lot of mystery back, furthering peoples interest in MD in a whole, a very hard thing to do! and i certainly appreciate it! Very intellectual! friendly opinionated these are the things i value most from Awiiya, and i feel will be missed from the LHO team. Asterdai

5 silver for the oldest TS, beat THAT sagey

[quote name='Burns' date='27 March 2010 - 01:04 PM' timestamp='1269695078' post='56985'] def-rits have that pretty big | DEF in that one column if you look closer... I think that's enough, ain't it? And try to use names that help you remember what's in the rit, and that are of very different lenghts, e.g. 'def', 'Drachornkilling' and 'remains' are some of my common names, hard to mix those up, even at just one glance^^ [/quote] thanks for you comment, good point i still think that different colours would help distinguish certain rites from others, if you have a long list of rites the names can get confusing. it would be a nice addition, containing Echo's of How colours can be linked to certain actions, and certain feelings

when you set your attack to Defence, have it appear in a different colour for easy viewing, Or have the ability to set your Rites to differing colours. Possibly buyable in the MD shop. this will help me a LOT i apologise if someone has come up with this idea before.

12 silver for both.

i will buy both for 5 silver.

i will buy the TS for 2 silver

Gave MasterB 3 silver coins, because he was active in the paper cabin when i logged in, he replied when i ask a question, good to see LHO are there

Despite its evilness, the shoulder looks pretty slim, (lol!!)

Great fun, congratulations Tarquinius, Z, Blackwood and Kyuu (of course loved yours the most Tarquinius no bias what so ever lol) Asterdai

i selected puzzle and teaching quests. Magic!! wooot! and the elusive knowledge of the principles...

so.. an "official" bodyguard/ body double... how intruiging!

Reports of an imposter have spread like wildfire within the capital, though it is clear they are unconfirmed. [IMG]http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/zz93/Asterdai/lifelineimposter.jpg[/IMG] With the secret items of Mur on the loose, unknown items of unknown power and imposter kings bearing royal seals, the people in the land of MD grow uneasy, you should be wary of strange occurences, lest you yourself get caught up within them.. keep an eye out, and trust no one, not even no one. It is surely a sign of our times, a sign of things to come.

wow what great responces!! i love the story yoshi, its really magical and such a good reason for the stone to be in the box.. with regards to the principles you mentioned and how they affected the stone, i was looking for something a bit more like this i guess. (not the principles involved in the moment but in the actual object.) Principle of Enthropy: the stone flicking accross the water altered its structure. the stone on the beach shaped by the rolling of the sands around it.(linked like you said with transposition x) Principle of Imagination: the stone "holds" the moment when the girl gave it to him, a vessel which encapulates the love felt in that moment (you mentioned something similer in your story which was just great) Time Principle: like you said time stood still when they kissed. When he holds the stone.. time would stand still for him maybe "transporting" him to that time in his mind. Who knows how time is altered for him when he holds the stone? Transposition Principle: as an object, it "holds" this memory so strong. the object is imbued with the love and the memorys so strong for him. How this may affect him and also her, is unknown but it is an extremely powerful force. but you made a great effort, thanks for spending so much time on this. And Particlezen i LOVE your responce regarding the shell, i think you understand its place in nature, and what it can show us much more than me! From within came the music of the spheres, the sound of a fractal universe spiralling into infinity, forever bound in its golden ratio - is beautiful as well as imformative. sacred pattern of all that is, a single thought, and yet still he was the mind of all things, dreaming worlds into being. this is great. how knowing and understanding something so "simple" as the creation of a shell affects all things in the universe. i think you understand very well how the principles "work" all together to create the universe. I like the fact that you wrote anything is possible in understanding these things, indeed it is, thats what this game is about. Anything is possible as long as you can work out how. (sorry about the lack of clarity here, its hard for me to talk about as well, you did a MUCH better job in your responce.) i suppose i should wait a week to see if anyone else has anything to say about any of the other objects before we can continue to explore different things x (thanks so much you guys!! youve made it worth doing something like this already with your responces x)

in no particular order... Pamplemousse - my first friend here, a special person who at the time when i arrived, had time for everyone, not just me, interested in story writing (and very particular on spelling mistakes!!) and offering rewards for people who helped others with their papers. Havent really experienced her Citrusy wrath only the sweet scent of her grapefruity goodness. Leader of Team Citrus, truely deserving of Best Protector, who spent an AWFUL lot of time and patience with all her adepts not just me. The first person i RP'd with and made me feel warm and welcome in MD, helping me spread my wings for myself x Ailith - When i had problems with people in MD i didnt know who to turn to. Ailith helped me with my problems (i dont know what she said...but it worked..thankfully.. or i wouldnt be here) friends with everyone and a big ear and even bigger heart. I dont know if it pained her to become tainted, im sure it was probably nessercey for her character to develop. I didnt like the change at first, and i believe she must sometimes miss being the person she once was, but change is nessercery for everyone, and to me, she will allways be the same x Zleiphneir - Being lost and not "feeling" the love in MD for a few reasons, feeling alone i didnt have anywhere to turn. There was one person that was i knew would be there to talk with, whether he liked it or not!! he didnt have a choice to leave.. i could come and go when i pleased, and sometimes i felt rather selfish.. but you know we all have different friends..it would be impossible to keep in touch with all of them ALL the time. Taught me simple rules about hwat i should or shouldnt think about doing when RPing and helping me create a character i enjoyed playing, this is probably the person i felt most attached to when i first began the game. though a bit annoying and defensive when asking him a question (i call him a brick wall ) often asking a cryptic one back, one of the only people who made me look deeper into different parts of the game. Peace - if i ever felt in an Intelligent mood, i would search to find Peace. Her understandng about principles and the ways and workings of Necrovian were an inspiration for me. Often she didnt say anything, and helped me think for myself. Annoying yet thoughtful stories/morals that she got from her father, still perplex me to this day, and to be honest make me feel a little stupid, because i cant understand them. She helped guide me to an answer i waqs satisfied with, talking with me for hours and hours at times, and i really really apriecated her time, and the way she went about "leading" me to an answer. Ladytwin - Not knowing much about this perplexing character.. it doesnt matter. Friendly to everyone she is an inspiration for me. The time she has spent on this game and helping people, and just seeing her wave fury (her hair) around is just amusing and makes me smile. Constantly searching for something, allways a woman on a mission, yet having a LOT of time for people in the paper cabin, an LHO without being named as one. One of the people who has RP'd from the start and im sure will continue to do so. (special mentions, people mean a lot to me personally : innocence, kouros, windy, Rhah de la rey) (please post your TOP 5! if you cant say nice things about people you admire in game, tell them what you really feel, then try on here)

The boy sat on his window sill. He looked around his room and sighed, all the things he had collected, all the things people had bought for him, did they really make him happy? He opened his box of collected things, things of nothing and everything. A dried delicate maple leaf A pen A knife Some scrappy letters from a pen pal in France a slightly uneven but almost circuler smooth jet black stone a spiraled shell the silver wrapping from a chocolate that he managed to remove and flatten smooth All provided him with memories, but why did he keep them, why were they important, and more importantly what did they represent? (take one item and describe in words why they might be important for him, or write a story about it, give examples of principles shown in that item, or explain what it might represent for him. the story will continue soon with something else to think about, rewards for this quest will be given for interesting answers,) (this section of the story is open-ended, please feel free to describe an item that you would like to be in the box also, and why you think it should be there x, hard for me to explain, and for you to understand what exactly you need to do, but be creative and inventive, mentioning at least one principle in every answer you give. Repitition is not a problem in discussing the different items, they could all be the same, just an idea to get people thinking about principles)
