Unfortunately the Three Kings of Orion's Belt was incorrect.

Clever, but perhaps you did not read the riddle?
The answer is not correct.

Coffee The asterism on Orion's belt seemed to fit (groan @pun). Dang TEDO's twisty ways. Very busy atm yet....
will look anew later and if an IG enters IRC would anyone post it here for us. THX

EDIT: Except for The Southern Cross and Carina am unfamiliar with the constellations of the Southern Hemisphere where the Phoenix Constellation is visable in the Summer season (http://tinyurl.com/lowfbq). So this far:
Quote:
The hunter ("Orion" is best seen during the summer in the Southern Hemisphere.) sets out near the end of the river("Eridanus"known as the Celestial River is best seen from November through February)


Reckon the answer lies in whichever constellation is ascendant just before Phoenix is:
Quote:
Before the rise of the phoenix he'll find in his prime

Very much like that due to that constellation's proximity to The Phoenix LINK to Photo. THX for the chat logs.

To clear the latest chats up a bit, Binsakne and FeGrelw were talking about how I tried to do the Eter'Tel (Eternity Ritual), the instructions of which were found by amandel in the pegasus picture I recieved from TEDO. I failed to sing the song in the right "way", though, but it seems that Binsakne has gained something from my attempt, which is good

Updates

NEW entry on Tylean's Blog called Prohim Tilean with a link (red text) to a new section on the Zurkpert Site containing

new info inc. a PDF of the attached Music's score/lyrics and a msg from Binsakne for all to read. Also this group email:
Binsakne Abiendamel wrote:
Bilvin,
The journey has not been easy but it is near its end
Wrongs will be mened, and the Book will transcend
The impediments of linear time and thus promote
The restoration of things as before the TEDO smote


Binsakne is now the Tilean Korpatul. He is imo finalizing for the Forbidden Ritual. Opened in Wordpad/Midi Editor it shows:

Here is the text from the PDF:

Quote:

Ma Nestrem Fai; Ma Ne Na

Fe Korpata Profesul tenem

an Korpatul fe prel bel zaqunr
fai Um konsliatrem na
xel! Konsliatrem na xel!
Um na xel
fai Tilean Tnemul!
(Tenor/Bass joins later on, repeating "Konsliatrem na xel!")


Which translates to:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

But [it needs to be?]; But not now
The Book now has a Keeper! Keeper of the Book the [prel] who is wise. And now he is waiting! Now he is waiting! And now he is the Keeper of Time!


What is he waiting for?
Can anyone read music? Very Happy

zaqunr is offline. Messages you send will be delivered when zaqunr comes online.


Yes, it was horrible...
It was in response to my asking for confirmation that Binsakne is telling the truth. Then I thought he was offering to talk. I thought he wanted to tell US something. Well, after long pauses of trying to play along and be a good Traltem, the doorbell went and I left poor Zaqunr hanging for a couple minutes...
He said that we should just try and else talk in our language, but I was stubborn. Laughing

Well, in chat I pretty much gave up trying, because I have to leave soon. But didn't sufficiently communicate to the others that they are not supposed to be Traltem all the time. Embarassed

Chat logs are up on the wiki, can't link it now, must go!

Got this email from the book after telling him I knew I failed the ritual:

Quote:
Ya entend.
Ya kernem kwa bi fe Eter'Tel kontingem.
Ya kernem kwa bitux fe Eter'Tel kontingem.


Quote:
I understand.
I would like that you perform the Eter'Tel
I would like that you all perform the Eter'Tel


(I think Very Happy )

Haha, I see my mistake now...

Look at this:
Quote:

Ya ejert kwa fe Grelw kwn bitux tralt


I interpreted this like "I can speak with you and FeGrelw."...don't ask me why. There is no um. And it makes no sense at all. I had to prepare for leaving later on and misread it.
To be fair, I think it was suppoed to be jienem instead of ejert? Because "I can that FeGrelw talked with you." does not make sense.

That's why I later on said "Do you want to talk with us?". And the book then thought I invited him.

Laughing
