I should hope so!
I think nobody else is fool enough to detest gold.

Greetings one and all,
as the title suggests, I wish to buy a Wind Dragon.
It has to be maxed and, very important, with NO tokens.
I'm offering 111 gold coins.
Exactly, one hundred eleven.

I'd suggest to have Ledah replace the elf he killed.
All we need is a nice costume and a proper make-up, I bet Confused Santa won't notice the difference. 😄

A few months ago I tried to repair the balloon as well.
If I remember correctly, there was an issue related to paper (being labelled "item" instead of "resource", or was it the other way around...).
Long story short, the amount was not showing correctly, but I was assured the balloon would get the right amount and work as intended (I think Fyrd mentioned that).
Anyway, should you feel stuck, keep in mind there is another way to leave the island and reach the mainland.
Best of luck.

Those of you that i upvote (currently Aelis and Iashtal) , please see if you can provide instructions to replicate your creations, so i can reward you a wp for them. Its valid for future creations of others too. If you can't provide instructions its alright, there will still be rewards for cool creations such as these (just not wp)
It seems easier to me to let shapes emerge rather than draw them directly.
Each new "push" to the flow seem to dilute the previous ones so I'm trying to toy with non-conflicting streams and let them work until they gather a sufficient amount of "sediments". Thicker sediments can be moved later for details.
One-eyed Whatever can be replicated by drawing a clockwise circle (obviously imprecise) over and over again. In time, this creates the outer form. Once it looks stable enough you draw a smaller, counterclockwise circle inside of it. It's important that the inner flow doesn't interfere with the outer flow.
I'm trying a similar approach to obtain a tree:

Please welcome the allmighty One-eyed Whatever!

I wonder if the answer would be the same for (double AND reverse) and (double OR reverse). If it's double AND reverse, I think raising to the power of 2 would provide a good solution:
A² = AA = -A-A = (-A)²
Symbolically, I think this would equate to raising (doubling?) a degree of complexity (for instance: l is a line, l² is square, so on and so forth). This would also fit nicely with Mur's 8-fold balance: A -> AA (A²) -> A²A² (A⁴) -> A⁴A⁴ (A⁸)
That makes a lot of sense.
Years ago when I was discussing this with Azull he mentioned the square, but I probably didn't get what he meant back then. Now it seems clearer!

All good things come to an end... 🤪

Have you checked the "creature" branch of your inventory?
It should be created in there.

Thanks a lot Aelis, this is very interesting.
I wanted to throw in some more candies for the mind but it seems I lost access to some parts of the forums. Therefore, I can only share the crumbs I noted down in my docs, with no links for validation.
Sadly, I can't always discriminate what's been taken from official sources and my speculations around them.
1 hour ago, Aelis said:In the AL we see the Traveler split into two shapes in two occasions.
The traveler is a "reverser", I don't have a better name for it yet but there are symbols that counter another and a third type of symbols that can double or reverse an other, thats the traveler, not shade, not angien, yet causes the apparition of a tainted angien. Some of you provided essential explanations to the key question I asked, but the mystery is still open. Question was: "what do you add to something to obtain its opposite?" (I'm pretty sure this comes from Mur)
At first I thought the answer to this last question was the 0 point, the gap that opens a circle (see attachment) and might create two different directions/poles.
From a mathematical point of view, the answer would be different. The question can be put as:
A (something) + X = -A (opposite of A)
Therefore, X = -2A
Which symbol can double AND reverse?
1 hour ago, Aelis said:These two beings already carry a lot of symbolic power by themselves, but when they collide we get the orb that is "all the cubes at the same time", a mirror of every possibility
This is a very strong image.
I had it noted down with a couple of considerations that enhance its "timeless" connotation:
A prism divides light into colors and narrow their number to those we can perceive.
A cube (our mind) divides existence into a series of temporal actions.
For an insignificant moment in time the sphere was the shades view on the movement of all cubes.2 hours ago, Aelis said:duality (a feature associated with Angiens)
The Angiens have a religious feeling. [...] The Angiens are the answer, but the fun part is that the Angiens are actually the QUESTION. (Again, I think this comes from Mur)
In a religious system, the untouchable answer (God) is fueled by the constantly moving herd of worshippers (the question). Angiens seems to be both in AND out of MD, in and out of duality.
The one opening MD box can be seen like the 3rd observer, the one outside duality, the gap in the circle... God? Our Demon of the East in Angien's disguise?
One last thought that haunts me: compare the research clues about Angiens ("burning ability" in particular) and "page 5: a deadly secret", from Chronicles of a Shade killer. 🙃

You can send messages to people on your Friends list, by clicking on it (below the chat) and clicking on the name.
With the new graphic interface I can't access my friend list anymore. When I click on "Friends" nothing pops up anywhere. When I right-click on "Friends" to open it in another window I can't use it to write messages.
On 5/6/2021 at 4:41 PM, Fyrd Argentus said:if you have already established communications, you can either reply to a message in your INBOX that they sent you
Many times I get "You cannot send a message back because the PM is too old"
Sending PMs in game is a true pain as of late.

The quest has been launched 2 weeks ago, 2 weeks of break from my patrolling duty.
As soon as day 174 starts, I'll resume my usual activity.
If you are inside Necrovion for "A recurrent nightmare" quest, contact me and we'll come to a deal.
Otherwise you'll be killed on sight.
Thanks for your understanding.

I recently used a WP to "Unlock deeper clues. Research depth: 8"
Now I can unlock level 8 clues, but I can't unlock level 5.
(I suppose 4,5,6,7 since I have achieved the Third Research Depth - Quester).
Is it supposed to be that way? Only level 8 and not the ones below?
I bet it's not.
Thank you.

If you're encoutering a refresh issue while on "Recurrent nightmare" quest, please consider what I wrote in that thread:
If you feel you lost part of the story / clues, please message me (either here or in game) and explain what you were doing. I'll resume any piece of information you might have lost.
Thanks for your patience and for your understanding.

Firstly it should be noted the quest is based inside of Necro

2 hours ago, Blackshade Rider said:this basically puts a target on your head to be killed basically for doing a quest
Do you really think I would waste months of work (mine and Fyrd's) just to kill a few more people?
People just have to contact me and we'll come to a deal, it's part of the quest.
I've run a spell-doc quest for 6 years now. It's based in Necrovion. Nobody has been killed or harmed.
Ever.

2 hours ago, Blackshade Rider said:AP is consumed on every single step, while this is nothing new to Necro recently it causes the issue that if you have to click that reset button then you basically wasted and entire day or more depending on the step your on.
It took me years to deal with this nightmare and I got no wishpoint... 🤪
Seriously, if you want to get a wishpoint you have to spend some time / effort into it.
It's not an easy quest, that's for sure. I hope it's entertaining.

About resources, tools, wiiya... It takes time, it takes dedication, it takes helps from others, it uses some mechanics that were forgotten or simply not used in a long while.
Most people farm and train creatures for stats. You can train grasans to get the resources you need.
As for the correct names for the grasans, just open the announcements page, it's all there.

3 hours ago, Blackshade Rider said:Auto refresh also seems to be an issue, while I had done the solution given to this I was told it's on my end as it shouldn't had refreshed. Well I fail to see how it was on my end when every time I clicked it it auto refreshed but I click anything else no auto refresh happens this includes the bug gardens quest that supposedly has the same refresh issue however I don't experience this issue with the bug gardens quest. This causes clues to disappear [...]
If you feel you lost part of the story / clues, please message me (either here or in game) and explain what you were doing. I'll resume any piece of information you might have lost.
2 hours ago, death ray said:To add to that, I was at a certain location with in NC, and followed through with a series of clickies and got myself killed and am now "dead". Now I didn't know any better and I assumed it was a part of the quest and followed through with my actions. Very unfair death to a good man working hard on a near impossible quest.
That scene has nothing to do with my quest.
If you assumed it was you either rushed and didn't read carefully or you misunderstood some part.
To everybody: Trail of Agony is a deadly place, actually one of the two within Necrovion(-ish).
Be careful, Necrovion is a dangerous place (even with death patrols on vacation!).

I don't think it's possible to get Gateway Island affiliation back, unless you have an official role related to it.
But, look on the bright side: you are currently a member of The Dead!

On day 364 year 17, a delegation ventured inside Necrovion for an unprecedented offering to the Shades.
Three individuals (Ledah, Nep and The Puppeteer) were taken to the Eternal Toiler, where they sacrificed altogether 50 creatures.
111 fenths were created and left for time to erode.
This outstanding sacrifice was awarded with a spell-doc page for each participant.
Below the full log of the event:

[31/12/22 12:21] Ledah:Only the best

[31/12/22 12:23] Ledah:Each of them have their own stories, decades of experience and even more years in potential... but I can share a fragment whilst they are... processed.

[31/12/22 12:31] Ledah:Now this one I won in a game of cards, poker if I recall correctly.
[31/12/22 12:32] :Ledah sacrificed Angien Sentinel IV
[31/12/22 12:32] lashtal:A game of bluff... May the Shades feast and dance in its wings.

[31/12/22 12:37] Ledah:Well, that is a lot of heat off my shoulders.
[31/12/22 12:37] lashtal:All of them were even older than myself... I must say I'm truly impressed.
[31/12/22 12:37] :The Puppeteer watches at the display of forces amased
[31/12/22 12:38] lashtal:They were like... 12 year-old creatures?
[31/12/22 12:38] Ledah:13... From back when the Shrine was opened.
[31/12/22 12:38] Ledah:Good times.
[31/12/22 12:39] Ledah:I do have quite a few lesser sacrifices, if it pleases.
[31/12/22 12:40] lashtal: *considers all the fenths...* The more, the merrier...
[31/12/22 12:40] Ledah:Excellent! These are young, less than a year... but a Drachorn first...
[31/12/22 12:41] :Ledah sacrificed Rustgold Madhorn
[31/12/22 12:41] lashtal:Nice, a Rustgold Drachorn is like the cherry on top...
[31/12/22 12:42] Ledah:Next... an Aramor, Joker, and Tree... just to round out the colours.
[31/12/22 12:42] :Ledah sacrificed Reanimated Roots
[31/12/22 12:42] :Ledah sacrificed Imperial Aramor Assassin
[31/12/22 12:42] :Ledah sacrificed Master of Puppets
[31/12/22 12:43] lashtal:And thus, all lands represented.
[31/12/22 12:43] Ledah:Quite! Hmm... these Grasans are not very pretty, but should go through all the same.

[31/12/22 12:50] Nep:Very nice
[31/12/22 12:51] lashtal:100 fenths... I don't remember anything like this in the past.
[31/12/22 12:51] The Puppeteer:Amazing
[31/12/22 12:51] The Puppeteer:The level of devotion is intoxicating
[31/12/22 12:52] Ledah:Only the best sacrifices for the Shades.
[31/12/22 12:53] lashtal:Regarding fenths...
[31/12/22 12:53] lashtal:Of course you all can harvest them, if so you wish. Otherwise time will consume them. One last tribute to the principle of Entropy.
[31/12/22 12:54] Ledah:I've got a couple of tools to hand if anyone does want to.
[31/12/22 12:54] Nep:I already have one
[31/12/22 12:55] Nep:But actually, let me throw in some critters of my own first
[31/12/22 12:56] lashtal:Very well, this is going to break all records...

[31/12/22 12:58] The Puppeteer:I would also like to make a sacrifice for the Shades. I do not have much, all is black and white...
[31/12/22 12:59] lashtal:The world itself is black and white. Everything is valuable.
[31/12/22 12:59] The Puppeteer:But I have the creature granted by the Christmas tree that is, for me, a very important one from Loreroot, I should not have been able to get it because of the guards
[31/12/22 13:00] The Puppeteer:I also want to mention that this is my very first ever sacrifice that is made, interestingly, to the Shades
[31/12/22 13:00] :The Puppeteer sacrificed Animated Tree III
[31/12/22 13:01] Ledah:Very nice... a real sacrifice, as it were.
[31/12/22 13:01] Nep:111 fenths, a fine number
[31/12/22 13:01] :The Puppeteer bows
[31/12/22 13:01] lashtal:Very fitting for 3 individuals...
[31/12/22 13:02] lashtal:And as a token of gratitude for all this, allow me to give you a taste of...
[31/12/22 13:02] lashtal:Well, technically not proper liquid dust...
[31/12/22 13:02] lashtal:But something closely related to...
[31/12/22 13:03] lashtal:Come close Ledah, open your mouth wide.

[31/12/22 13:04] lashtal:Try not to throw up... force it down.
[31/12/22 13:04] :Ledah chokes it down
[31/12/22 13:04] Ledah:Now that... is most welcome. Thank you.
[31/12/22 13:04] lashtal:My pleasure.
[31/12/22 13:04] lashtal:Come close Nep, open your mouth wide.
[31/12/22 13:04] :Nep steps forward

[31/12/22 13:05] Nep:Bleh...

[31/12/22 13:06] :The Puppeteer swallows the liquid
[31/12/22 13:08] lashtal:So be it. May the Shades accept this offer and all of you walk safely.
[31/12/22 13:08] lashtal:You can roam freely as you see fit.
[31/12/22 13:09] Nep:Time limit?
[31/12/22 13:09] Ledah:Thank you all for your time today... and for not killing me lash.
[31/12/22 13:09] lashtal:At midnight we'll head back outside Necrovion.
[31/12/22 13:09] Nep:Very well
[31/12/22 13:09] lashtal:Wherever you are, you'll be summoned outside.
[31/12/22 13:10] lashtal:Even if you are stuck in some swamp...
[31/12/22 13:10] :The Puppeteer bows and wanders off in the dust
[31/12/22 13:10] Ledah:Useful... I'll be heading off now, but look forward to seeing you all later.
[31/12/22 13:10] lashtal:Safe travels, thank you all once again.

Sorry for being a pain...
But this recent change in interface makes MD barely playable for me.
Everything looks bigger, from fonts to windows, some backgrounds are blank, the trigger box overlaps the - + d r s buttons so I can't reshape anything anymore.
p.s. I haven't activated anything experimental, just trying to act normal 😜
Edit: my issues vanished during the last few hours. I don't know what caused them but since they're gone please ignore what I wrote.

This is an attempt to have all boxes arranged in a way I like.
Besides a minor glitch in upper left corner, I only have issues with the trigger box.
As jakubhi mentioned already, that box looks bugged: it's impossible to move it and fix it in another place (it keeps following the mouse/touchpad movements), and you can't pin/unpin it anymore.
I tried using Firefox and Safari, with similar results.
Edit: despite having saved, once I logged out I lost all the changes I made.

Same issue for me.
Quester achievement does work though.
Edit: Aksel says Quester achievement is bugged too. It says you need 3 WPs but then error shows saying you don't have 8 WPs. Having spent more than 8 WPs I haven't seen this.

Perhaps I went too deep...
Considering 231 / 666 came from power-ups, I think I collected 8700 bones over the years.
Is this eligible for the mark of the beast?

Can I get the mark of the beast?
