The quest starts in Trinsic.
Say Greetings to the Royal Suveyor. She reponds by telling you she is busy.
Next word trigger is BUSY.
Followed by....EpiOlmec Cascajal, Malas, History, Unexplained, clue, theories, translate, translator


During the little conversation the surveyor mentions the city libraries.
Two libraries in Britain..... you want to visit the one named First Library of Britain which is SE of the West (big) bank.
Inside look in the 3rd bookcase. Should be 11 books.

From left to right, starting at the top.......

Natural Phenomena ...... The book leads you to the south Luna wall ...... scroll in the crack with the word ENTRY

Luna Defenses ............. City of Luna, West inside corner wall lights up ...... corner wall with word BEARING

Forestry Findings .......... DOOM .... more specific the room where you get the quest for gold skull ....books with word WORTHY

Life of Natives IV ......... Grimswind Ruins Area ................cornerstone word GUARDS

A Night at the Hostel ... 5 gold boxes with the letters T H O S E ...... GoldBoxes with word THOSE

Islands In Stars .... North of the main mountian range, east mainland where the small floating island is ... Crystal with word TEMPLE

Defeat of the Demons .... White Tree over the South Bridge from Luna to the left of the screen ... Mushrooms word JUDGE

Life of Natives III ....... Camp bottom of the Northern Crags and to the left ..... Fur word SOULS

Life of Natives II ........ small orc fort above and to the left of Luna ...... skull with word SHALL

Life of Natives V ........ The HERMIT.............statue engraved III II III II - And This Shall Guide Thee
Greetings .... Hermit responds with a saying
All other books words .... same responses
EpiOlmec Cascajal ...... Waits for your next word

Life of Natives I ......... Large abandoned fort on the Southern Island of Malas .......Banner on west wall with word HEARTS

Go back to surveyor office say these words to green book
temple guards shall judge those souls bearing entry worthy

We could always start posting words, letters, or coords that we have all tried.
Like all city names, virtue names, compass, sextant, keep an ongoing list of what has been tried.

Roman Numerals III II III II can mean so many things. The 3rd and 2nd native books; the third word second letter; coords; numeral clues are always a pain and have been wrong in the past.

Wonders if this part was player tested............

EpiOlmec Cascajal doesn't need to be case sensitive ... also, how did anyone figure out "translate" as a keyword ... it isn't a word that comes from "theories" or any of the other keywords ... did anyone find the published papers? Maybe that is the answer.

Does anyone know what the book was yelling when it was "captured"?

Several people have said that it was talking. I've asked in gen chat and alliance, if someone knows - even one word it said - can you post here?

Thank you.

No idea. Only that several people have said to me that when the book was "captured" it was saying things. I wasn't there for that part of the event.

Complete walkthrough posted in the original post (1st one labeled SPOILER)

I find it sad that as hard as our EMs try they can't make an event that we can actually complete without resorting to walkthroughs.

I tried for 20 minutes to find the stupid book mentioned by the surveyor in both Moonglow and Brit. No luck, came here. [Edit: finally found the books... I didn't even know that library was there!]

Thinking about giving up on the books entirely and using the rest of the spoiler post to get to the end, because this is ridiculous. We shouldn't have to waste our time searching through a million copies of "Talking to Wisps" to find a clue!

The big problem with a quest like this is not everyone has played for 13 years, and do not understand the clues. And even if you get them all and make it to the end, unless you have a player that can make it through the last hallway, your all done!

I feel really sorry for folks who got SCREWED like that, and could not even get a rez at the end..because someone (cough em) was being so ANAL!!!!!!!

That'd be me... I even took my stealther in, because I thought she'd have a chance. No luck. When you get auto-targeted as soon as you res at an ankh, what are your chances, exactly? I guess this is yet another "quest" that you can only do as a group of 7xGM'd fighters. Boo on the EMs for designing yet another quest that the rest of us casual players don't have the resources or give-a-damn to complete!

Except maybe a crafter, you can do that quest with any character. Simply go kill demons for 45 mins or so and work honor up to the first level. Then, just before you go through the hall, honor yourself and run like crazy.
