Veltan
Being a worshipper of Sheogorath, I like to come up with riddles in my spare time. This one uses the map of Vvardenfell, and the clues refer to town in the game. Connect the towns in order, and a shape should emerge. I'll check back tomorrow to see if anyone has got it.
Veltan
Start where civilization meets madness
and old gods rise,
Then go to the passageway to ice, then east,
To where the hive mind has fallen.
North, to the end of the world, and back again,
then continue east,
to the headless tribe.
Then south, to the centre of disease,
then east, yet again, to the magical centre.
Up, to the healer and helper,
the back to disease.
South, to the gods, then back to the beginning.
String them together, then see if it fits;
Tell me, what does a N'wah get?
jonajosa
wow...... Im gonna have to find a map!
Soulseeker3.0
ok, i don't have a map right now but i will guess a sword.
Veltan
Not quite, right track though. It's a rather rude expression.
Veltan
Doesn't anyone want to figure it out?
darkcootie
here is a guess spear

edit:this doesnt include the bloodmoon map does it
Veltan
nope. The image goes about as low as Balmora.
Hint: madness=corprus
Channler
Veltan you should check about see'ing if you can get your riddles into that mod there talking about.. look on the Fan Fic forum, there should be a thread there about it telling you everything.. its a really awsome idea
Veltan
That's an interesting idea. If I can find the rest of my riddles, I'll take a shot at it.
minque
Hm Iīve got the map in front of me, and I figure the start could be Ghostgate, then the second Khuul, the third...hmmm donīt really know..have to think more.... wink.gif
Veltan
Ghostgate is a really good guess, and khuul is right. The beginning is near the coast. (hint- main quest)
minque
ok..so ghostgate was not correct? near the coast you said...could it be Andasreth then?

the hive mind? what is "hive"

the end of the world ....Ald Redaynia?

headless tribe...Ahemmusa?
center of disease ..corprusarium..Tel Fyr?
magical center..Sadrith Mora?
healer and helper...must be Aryon!
back to disease....tel fyr again?


ohhh help me am I on the right path? :lickinglips2:
Veltan
You're really close, only Andasareth and Ald Redaynia are wrong.
1. I forget where Andasareth is, but try looking in the bitter coast region.
2. It's a few islands east of Ald redaynia.
3. scribs smile.gif

I hope this helps you figure it out.
minque
hehe...yayy

Bitter Coast.....Hlormaren?

East of Ald Redaynia......ok so Dagon Fell or Ald Daedroth


did you say hive=scribs?? hmmm

when I have the places right Iīll se which figure it is.....


hehe this was fun! :goodjob:

minque
hmm Veltan said in an earlier post that there shouldnīt be anything south of Balmora...so why Vivec? try something else!
Pinehead

Most stuff south of Tel Fyr is south of Balmora... Maybe Tel Fyr is wrong. Where's Veltan?

What the hell is that
minque
[quote=Pinehead]What the hell is that[/quote]


looks like an insect...... biggrin.gif
Veltan
haha... I messed up.
I was in school when I did this, so I didn;t have the map directly in front of me I didn't realize that Tel Vos was so far west or that the Shrine of Azura was so far south.
To make it look sort of right,
1) go to Indoranyon instead of Tel Vos and
2) Forget the part about the Shrine of Azura, and go back to the beginning from Tel Fyr.
I'm sorry if I messed people up or made them mad because of my mistakes, but hopefully this helps you quite a bit.
And oh ya- The hive mind makes a perfect out-of-the-way base:)
Pinehead
Well, you tried...and I think it was a very good idea.
Still don't get what this is though...
Veltan
The "hive mind" isn't Dagoth Ur, it's a bit North.
Pinehead
[quote=Veltan]The "hive mind" isn't Dagoth Ur, it's a bit North.[/quote]
Like uh...Kogoruhn?
Veltan
It's a dwemer ruin
minque
Well I liked this.....someone make a new one! :goodjob:
Veltan
It's not quite over yet... What is the image?
Sinder Velvin
[quote=Veltan]It's a dwemer ruin[/quote]

Bthuand, I presume.
Veltan
Yep
minque
oh? ok so I thought the image should be a dwemer ruin.....well hmm my map is missing at the time so yhe boys have to do it
Veltan
This is the answer, I hope it works...

minque
biggrin.gif oh you nasty padawan..... wink.gif
the punishment is that you come up with another one
Veltan

P.S., To find out what I listen to when I came up with this idea, visit http://www.funpic.hu/swf/numanuma.html
Alexander
part of the rules of the forums, when you signed up here, was that you cannot post possibly offensive contents, I'd say this is bordering on it.

now I hate to be mean and such, but I strongly suggest keeping things here a little more serious then this, because otherwise I will be forced to close this thread down.


meaning that middle fingers and such are out.
Veltan
oops, sorry. I promise when I do another riddle it won't be rude. If i'm allowed sad.gif
