March 21st: Secret Event

[ChromiteSwiftpaw]

"Resources outside of the game itself" : like real-life money some are expected to spend to Valar some toons, as it sounds like a 115-only event?

As in translating dwarf runes.

[DwarfMover]

We are on second page. Cant seem to solve this one. We dont know what the word means. No place in google matches it.

[dselden]

1st clue isn't hard if you can find it in Erebor. 2nd clue is tough though. Found the right translation but not really sure what it is referring to.

[DwarfMover]

What you get as translation. we got something like without or gate. Cant get what the second part of it is.

[Wyatt]

Where is the second page? Is it at Mirrormere?

[dselden]

Where is the second page? Is it at Mirrormere?

Yes. Probably best to try not to spoil it though.

[Thurallor]

Yes. Probably best to try not to spoil it though.

I doubt anyone who doesn't want the surprised spoiled would read this thread.

Clue #1: "Find a Page inside Erebor"

Found a page in the south-east corner of Erebor, requires one to climb the eastern ramp around the middle and at the locked door take a right and following the ledge around the forges to the south.



Page is covered in runes.



Looked up the Angerthas in the Return of the King p. 505, translated it to "Kheleduram" which roughly means translates to Glass/Mirror (Kheled), Lake/Pool (Zuaram).

My bet is on the mirrormere.

[Gertes]

It's an community Event so people should work together, so ofc you can spoiler.

[DwarfMover]

It does say on it work with others.

Help me solve Binakhram and be my eternal friend
or until i forget you

[Gertes]

The first part of the word has to do with weaver/spider, if I'm not mistaken

[LightGatherer]

Any idea how long will this last? Will there be quests that are gated behind certain days? Or you can get them all as long as you have earlier quests?

I wish I were 115 now. It sounds like if you don’t join now, but do it later, you will miss the “solve the mystery” part.

[dselden]

I believe it means Without Name. Good luck.

[Aelir]

So it it for 115's only or not? Quest-gated or any level can walk in and interact with items?

Clue #2: "You Should Follow the Clues of the Rune Scraps"

Following the clue Mirrormere, I scoured the edge of the lake to find this out-of-place pillar. It's a new object sitting here on the landscape and sticks out like a sore thumb.



Thought I might have been mistaken as it's not usable, until I saw the side of it's column. MORE RUNES!



Stumped by this one, it's getting a jumble of letters. Might try translating using different versions (hobbit runes instead).

[Knight.]

useful for rune translation

[DwarfMover]

we solved it. But we only got the first two pages, cause we went searching and found the last clue

I feel we missed out on other clues

[Macdui]

I found the first page in The Hall Under the Mountain.

Picking up adds the page to the quest items and shows some writing/numbers however it lets you continue to pickup the page and adds to the page count in the quest log. I'm wonder if I might screw up the quest, i.e. complete without seeing all the different pages...

Clue #2 Update: "It's the light of the last MOON!"




Game hit night mode and this pillar lit up like a christmas tree
I guess the player puts down the page that we found in Erebor as a page appears on top that we get to read,



And behold, more runes.

Using the Hobbit runes, seems like this says Brego.

It's gibberish, turns out the pillar is meant to be used at night time. M O O N R U N E S!

[Temelnosce]

Since nothing is appearing to me, do I take it you have to be VIP to participate?

I think you need the Allegiance starter for Erebor done. My captain has done nothing for new zone and has access to it (but has done mordor). My LM is only 115 and cannot get the quest.
