Posted October 4, 2018 Here's more information on the one I found: [22:56:37] Within this ring of stones may the fate of kings and heroes be decided. Ql: 99.0, Dam: 0.0. Location on Chaos map: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's an updated screenshot: The white rectangle north of The Shroud is the HoTS duelling ring. The white box with the dot in the center, south of The Shroud, is the misplaced duelling ring (Sigil?) marker I found. It's entirely possible this has nothing to do with the Wurmiversary, but I'm hopeful its another clue to solving this puzzle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 4, 2018 I started mapping the movement of the moons; seems like Enki comes on and screams Eclipse everytime there is one on... So I think the crossing path of 2 moons at that time is where we would find some clues... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 5, 2018 Yep, I've shared that with a few people. We know exactly when Seris and Valrei eclipse. What we can do with that information...remains to be seen Are the "Sigils" on Chaos red? That could confirm that they're a completely different, related things. The dueling rings have white models. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 6, 2018 Those 2 dueling ring boundary markers are 8 years old so it was probably from when I was marking off the original HoTS dueling area before moving it north of The Shroud. I have removed the errant boundary markers. It's not impossible there are more in that area, but they are just remnants and not related to The Knights of Seris. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which would mean that the 'rogue' sigils people have come across on Freedom servers are related, otherwise I expect all errant markers would have been removed It's a confirmation of sorts.

Posted November 15, 2018 (edited) Found Lady Bell's tombstone today on Release, in an effort to share information please forgive the extra link, I have more luck in finding things than I do knowledge in how to post up the pic. Spoiler https://imgur.com/aBT8bs0 I did the obvious investigation and digging (from her quote about the digsite) with no direct results yet. Neglected to post the location, up on the top of the cliff at L25. It is now currently in a hole from my need for dirt on the project and curiosity if digging there would help so look closely. Good luck treasure hunters. Edited November 16, 2018 by Uisge_Beatha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck treasure hunters. This is a "Playfair" cipher... Been working on decoding it to no avail yet. I'm not sure what the key to the 5x5 square is, but I think it might be related to the "Do dragons play fair"... followed by the rest of alphabet letters. Solving this seems to not give me a sentence that makes sense, or a single word. I need help! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Other decoded messages have been posted in this thread and it (can be) a cooperative effort, I’m sure it’s fine. Was it just a playfair? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2018 Decoded it too, seems there is one typo in the encrypted text tho. the decrypted text however is rather cryptic on itself... studying the map, to see where to go... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was always up to those who find the clues to share or not share their findings. I spent well over an hour designing this quest to make sure that really pretty much anyone with the knowledge to install and play Wurm Online had a chance to participate, in fact I may have even spent as much as 68 minutes making sure it was a well balanced long term challenge. So yah, its ok to share findings Decoded Playfair Cipher: I am the archaeologist my sigil is the ram unlock my sigil by using your tracking ability on the top of the left horn my aurelian sigil must be unlocked before the artisan of x fine jewelry but after the jester The X should probably be an A Edited November 21, 2018 by MacOofer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2018 So people found sigils that are based on signs of the zodiac. Seems to me that the goal is to perform a tracking action on the top of the left horn of the sigil which depicts the ram (Aries). However these sigils must be done in a particular order, as in the sigil related to the artisan needs the action performed there before the archeaologist and the sigil related to the jester needs the action performed after. So what are the other clues from the tombs? Does anyone have the clue for the artisan or the clue for the jester? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2018 The "Artisan" is referring to someting a Jewelsmith would have crafted... In this case, it could be an object, like an altar. If you look at the description from a slightly different angle.. Before the artisan but after the Jester, could refer to a location, : Before you reach the jewelsmiths object (say altar) but a bit further then the Jester (food providing NPC at a startertown) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 21, 2018 Hard to say without seeing the other clues from the tombs. But I suspect that there is a theme here of actions to be done to sigils which have to be performed in a specific order as outlined in the clues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 22, 2018 Interesting about that 'X' in that. It was not there when I encrypted it. Might have been added by the encryption tool I used for unknown reasons. Do ignore the 'X' in that clue. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 'X' is placed when 2 of the same letters are adjacent to each other when de-ciphering 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
