Another email from Ore, with more Nimpik hints. I will compile this on the wiki in a moment. Smile

More nimpik help:

"Moragom stone tree, literally what does that sound like?"

We knew that "moragom" was "stone tree" a while back from someone's communications with Ore (sorry, can't remember who) and I remember that he mentioned its "sound" back then, too.

I can't for the life of me think what "stone tree" could be (suggestions from the IRC have included "tower" and "bridge", neither of which make sounds... Unless you include the dude who shouted from the tower) so I have emailed Ore asking for hints. Maybe he'll be feeling even more generous than he has been ;D

Fact: 2h of Nimpik = headache. Especially when the major breakthroughs happen after 1am.

Couple of tweets from Will before he went to bed.

Quote:
@WillJakobsen Any more questions for me? Going to sleep soon.

@Green How's your dog? No word on Lizzy either?

@WillJakobsen Still have Cali, no Sabrina. :/ Lizzy's still missing. Alex and Elizabeth don't know anything either. Out of everything I think that part hits me the most, the lost dog/friend. Don't know how Sabrina fits into all of this.

@Green It's tough to lose a friend. There is no "replacing" animals. Maybe she'll still come back? Lizzy, too. I hope so.

@WillJakobsen I hope so too. There wasn't any trace of where she could have gone -- it looked like she just...disappeared. No sign she even left. At least that's what her parents said.


Don't think this helps us at all, but every little bit fleshes out the world Smile

Okay so tiny little thought.
What if Borja, Horja, and Sorja relate to the elements?
As far as nimpik goes as a suffix ja is related to the environment hypothetically right?
Maybe Bor,Hor, and Sor are the suffix or the piece that dictate what environment or elements.

Woah, I am gonna have to start changing my sleep patterns so I don't keep missing the big breakthroughs Razz

I have a friend who has just emailed the church, so we may have a fifth in a while, and hopefully a sixth for you Dalek Smile

Oh and DZombar, we think they do. I asked if they related to the pillars like the other three and the church replied with:

Quote:
Indeed.


Helpful as usual Razz If we can extract another riddle from them that would be helpful, but we may need to wait until the second of the second generation has names. And do we know the order of the names? Because they do fit into patterns with other names of the same number.

I don't know if anyone came to this conclusion last night, but I bet a Stone Tree is a PILLAR! I was trying to think of things that are tall and thin like a tree, but made of stone.

In that case, we know how many stone trees there should be... does that fit with the text?

I'd check, but I'm already late for work... I just needed to stop and share what I thought of in the shower!

The other thing that came to me is that if there are three fates/prophecies, there's likely a Prophecy of Life, a Prophecy of Joy, and a Prophecy of Purity. Mayhaps we could ask Ore which of those three is his, it might get us further than just asking "what was your prophecy?" (Since he didn't answer that one.)

Maybe all together they make one larger prophecy? Since combining the colours gives us a fourth pillar.

Okay, random thoughts done, gotta run to the office!!!!!!!!!!

This makes sense, because each of the pillars has an element, doesn't it?

Now that, is inspired Smile I will be sure to ask him, though knowing Ore I will just get shot down Razz

But, it is a good hypothesis.

Morning all!

On the new ideas posted here, let's see if I can help any:

- It's Borja, Sorja, and Horja, in this order.
We know -ja refers to an environment.
We believe that Kora, Mora and Fora are fire, earth and water.
We also believe Koj is heart, Romnetora is sickness, and Toj is soul.

Following the pillars, we'd have:

Joy: Red, Kora, Koj, and Now Borja
Purity: Green, Mora, Romnetora, and now Sorja
Life: Blue, Fora, Toj, and now Horja

***

Stone Tree, Ore has confirmed it to be Tower! Very Happy The Tower has been all across the journey to earn the pillars. It's very important somehow.

***

On the Fates, I'd bet mine (Blue's) is Life and Lizzie's (Mora's) is Purity. This leaves ore with either Joy (red) or white, which is where he's at now.

EDIT: what if Borja, Sorja and Horja are places?


Hope this helps.

I'm trying to convince my guy to play, but he'd never heard of an ARG until yesterday and I'm not sure he's convinced yet. Wink
