Luna’s Journal - Gauntlet

Chapter 5 - The Marked Stormforth - 10/22/2022

With progress made on everything, Latentmoths came into play at the perfect time to solve some of the loose threads we had left. He was able to solve quite a few fragments, which gave us a huge boost in confidence!

We now have 3 fragments solved. A I M

I was able to hit another Scholar roll and got part of the Morse code in “You cannot have him” translated.

2-4 - Morse Code from “You cannot have him” - Partial

You cannot have him
You cannot keep him
You cannot stop me
I am unbeaten

I also used my scholar on a certain phrase of red text in OROBAS SEERE AMDUSIAS and hit again! 3 for 3, let’s GO! With that solved, we have the entire video complete!

2-3 - OROBAS SEERE AMDUSIAS - Various ciphers

I REACH BETWEEN THE
Worlds to mark you you you
POISONED by my PEN
We'll mix our blood together and you'll be my pawn again
A pact I made with my own self
And nobody knows the fourth key!

This unlocked yet another video.

Also Archaicjinn hit yet another Necromancer roll, reviving Chris, our presumed BALANCED BLADE, a role we still have no idea what it does.

Gem, our Seer, got something else to show us from 2-1. It’s an image of blue flames. I used my Scholar on part of the ciphertext and hit yet again! 4 FOR 4! Mind you, these are 70% hit rates, so I have to miss eventually… right?

2-1 - Partial Cipher Text

In Here Is Our Secret
Our Secret Will Stay In Here

Around this time, I decided to use two lifelines since they would expire at 10pm to send two other puzzles to our friends with hopes they would help solve it. And then I made the mistake of telling everyone that I had been keeping an eye on the Lifeline, which caused me to get SILENCED. Little old me getting silenced? I’m starting to think I might be a threat. GOOD. I WANT THAT.

As soon as I was unsilenced, I waited for my cooldown and got the rest of 3-2 translated so we could move forward. It was the remainder of 3-2 too!

3-2 - Chinese / Trithemius Cipher

Song of Divination, Luo Zhihai

Wind blowing to Sichuan Province, the Patio Spring Raining in the Lijiang River, Song of Divination How do the bee and grasshopper know the dragon and phoenix's hearts How can a pheasant understand a large swan's ambition

Victoria must sing into the voice chat the first seven notes appearing in the poem above to gain the voice of the Oracle. If her voice is true, The Oracle's Power of divination is yours. If she can not or will not sing, there may be another way.

Now we just need to find the notes within the Song of Divination. A note in this case refers to A B C D E F G.

We also unlock another video!
