A Letter From Skelly Manor

A very formal looking envelope arrives at your door. It is made of thick, hand-folded parchment and sealed with wax. As you carefully open the envelope, you notice the wax seal is emblazoned with an ornate pumpkin motif.

Dear Sir or Madam,

It is the formal request of Lord Jaxon Skelly and Master Ian Asmodeus that you attend at Skelly Manor as early as is convenient. Your assistance is requested and appreciated for a complicated matter of some privacy and delicacy. Sturdy, waterproof footwear is suggested.

Yours Faithfully,
Lord Jaxon Skelly

You make plans to visit Skelly Manor as soon as possible.

Note: This is a narrative-heavy plot, and relies on knowledge from the previous Morostide Plot. Click here for a recap!

@Foolkillersfancy Once your in the shadowglen click the opening in the wooded area to the right and down from where Skelly Manor is. There is a link that will say "Into the Woods..." and it'll take you were you need to go. Or maybe this link will work for that part: https://subeta.net/explore/morostide2018/

I’m so thirsty for a plot that I would have happily accepted anything by now, but the fact that we're revisiting this old plot made my happy squeal ♥️ ♥️

Foolkillersfancy 10/20/18 3:48 pm

Okay.. I got as far as leaving for the family crypt.. then back out to shadowglen. Did I do something wrong? I had no challenger or puzzle(unless the gauge watch and click correctly was a puzzle? ) HELP!!! Thank you!

Oh, I somehow skipped and I didn't see the confirmation box come up. Or did it just skirt me by because I failed too many times (didn't get past the third dial but i wanted to keep trying)? I don't understand what's going on. :|

Bug 10/20/18 3:38 pm

@Szarwas We have pushed a fix, so you can continue using Firefox :)

FWIW It was not browser related, rather it did not correctly redirect you back to the Manor. So people could still proceed by going back to the Manor directly.

I'm stuck after(?) the gauge puzzle. I just have a blank page. :(
I don't want to fight that puzzle again.

Lirikai 10/20/18 3:20 pm

@~~Didi~~
Usually there are a few days' worth of steps/plot related puzzles and other site-based activities, and they often get spread out, so yeah, there will be more plot coming later. We're not done yet!
