The Skedhu
The pharmacist said that it would be ready in about 15 minutes, so you are killing time, absently perusing the aisles, when you come across a selection of greeting cards and magazines. You think of the Dungarde, alone in the crypt - would it like something to read? Can it read? And on another note that strikes you as hilariously absurdist, what kind of thing would a deathless guardian creature like to read?
You gather a selection of magazines for a wide range of interests; In the stack, you have fashion, cars, outdoorsman, cooking, and even a bridal magazine. You top the pile with a monthly anthology of short stories just as Ian's name is called for pickup.
Time to go back to Skelly Manor!

Has anyone figured out the new blueprint genetech combos that were visible when you explored the house?

@Persika a valid Peg Solitaire move goes from the peg you choose over another peg and then into an empty hole. The very first move you make, the ending hole, this is not a surprise. There's only one destination! Nevertheless you need to tell the game that's where you want to move one of the four pegs you can move. So your first red square you pick, this is a peg, the second red square is a hole you mean it to jump another peg towards.

The peg solitaire game is not working or I'm doing it wrong. Lol. I click on a piece and nothing happens but a red box appears around it. When I click on another piece, the box moves, but that's it. I'm not sure what I'm doing;;

Memo to self: Next year, train pets hardcore in order to actually make a dent on the plot opponents XD
((I know it wasn't mandatory to battle, but still...I'd like to be able to fight those 1000HP+ opponents without going "Welp that's us out :'D" all the time lol))
I do like the Dungarde though; his interactions with us are adorable...but still sinister in its hintings towards Jaxon and Ian.
I love plots that are interactive like this, thank you to the Staff for creating and planning such an immersive one for 2018 <3

You know, this whole Skedhu/mirror thing may be related in some way to this year's Cash Shop opponents. I mean, what if the Skedhu reflects and manifests your worst fear? Just a thought.

I was wondering if I was the only one pondering (while in stitches of laughter) the magazine dilemma, I'm glad to know I was not alone and all you fellow TOT-ies were thinking along the same lines. Now as long as our new "meet my little friend" doesn't turn on us and use the culinary mag to our 'disadvantage'.

Buying the Dungarde reading materials is such a good idea. I'm so glad "I" thought of it. :P

You are welcome.
I'm thinking the interior design ones will allow the escaped Dungarde to create a new temple to Merana out of those suspicious crystals that were in Saherimos and the Omens.

I wonder which of the magazines he will enjoy reading? Maybe he'll be inspired by those interior design ones and use the tomb that he's used to for inspiration for some crazy crystal-infused living space?

Also, you should only have 3 reliquaries (despite 4 plot steps so far) because there was no puzzle in the 1st plot step (except the gauge thingy, but that doesn't really count as a puzzle). So we'll get the 4th reliquary in the next step (Monday I presume). :D

Not sure. Bug mentioned that "if you delete or lose the item, that won't affect your ability to progress in the plot" (also that you can file a ticket if you somehow accidentally delete/lose the item) but I'd keep them and lock them in my inventory just in case (besides, they make a great a great addition to a gallery/TC). :D
I guess they could just be some kind of trophies, but then that makes me think why they'd make them account-bound for the duration of the plot.

@ankou in the normal course of Subetan events, humans don't fight pets do (and humans don't eat but pets do). So what has happened to NPC Ian Asmodeus' rreign Curie?
Me I think the reliquaries are for depositions of new body parts.

@Allaconna my headcanon is darker than yours. I think normally a family dungarde takes a piece of the firstborn's heart. This plot is body-parts heavy after all. But there will be no first-born with Jaxon and Ian which is why it doesn't like him.

@ankou only the very first weakest Challenger was site-event-necessary. But if you beat up the other Challengers you get sP and EXP and fifth win loot drop. I also am guessing that it's likely there will be a prize associated with beating the Challenger for each pet that does beat it based on past site event awards and the way that the BAs think.

Okay, A, curse you, slider puzzle! I got it but dang that was annoying! B... Whyyyy am I being filled with a great sense of foreboding over this. Ian's going to have a major choice to make? And why does this thing make me think maybe it's the Skedhu? I mean, Skedhu means mirror, Jaxon said.. Or worse yet, that BAD STUFF IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO IAN? Nuuuuuuu...

@Jena if it refuses to let you click more, either something's up with flash or you've made a mistake. you're not supposed to let the path cross the black circles.
@beinagrind it requires a pretty involved solution to solve "right", aka with the marble in the middle, but my advice [other than 'look up a peg solitaire guide'] is to start with jumping the leftmost moveable marble into the center and make sure not to leave any too far from the center.

@Ankou You'll be fine. The only mandatory challenger was the first one that was easy enough for everyone to get at least one win on it.

@Bliss I skipped it and still got the day 4 achievement and a plushie. I'm not sure if there's additional prizes if you do the puzzle. The SKIP pop-up said I won't be able to go back to the puzzle; didn't say anything about missing out on achievements/prizes. Maybe it depends on the day (?) I wish I had a solid answer for you!

Yes, Jaxon is, but Connor isn't. And Skelly blood runs through his body. And from what I understand the guardian can't be set free until the bloodline has died out. But I hope I'm wrong.

All I'm envisioning now is the Dungarde deciding to stick around so it can be a wedding planner.
I don't plan to get married, Dungarde, but I'll pay you to plan out a delightfully creepy wedding anyway!
I'm getting a rather ominous feeling about all this now. *squints at Subeta*

@Allaconna of course it's gonna end badly. But Jaxon is already dead.
@Dice I also use Chrome it sounds like a Flash permissions thing. You may need to click the lock or symbol to the left of any Subeta URL and it will open out a small box with Site Settings as one of the three choices. Scroll down to Flash permissions. For Neopets I have Flash as always on, but for Subeta choosing Ask worksmost of the time. Try changing it to always on, or change it to Ask if you like to shut Flash down entirely (and who would blame you).

Oh please Subeta let us be able to do all the puzzles by the end of the event! *excited* I'm glad there's an option for people to skip them though if people aren't too keen on them. Not everyone's a puzzle-enthusiast! But personally I'm having so much fun on them. :'D I grew up with Zelda as my childhood, so puzzles like these always have a sense of nostalgia and fun to me! Delightful! Bless whichever one of you staff member(s) came up with these, they're great! :'D

@Solsticesprite It's the second board I'm stuck on. "Failing" doesn't take me back to the first board. I've tried every iteration I can think of (it's not a difficult board, I'm not trying anything obtuse). I've tried using the solution in the spoilers. Nothing.

Solsticesprite
@Dice your solution might not be one of the ones the puzzle setters thought of? If you fail at any board it starts you over and you have to create five more lines without mistake. If it's giving you the same board it may be setting you the exact same puzzle five times? In that case, keep on keeping on. Try one of the solutions given in the spoiler thread in the Morostide forum
@Bordeaux you are welcome.

I can't get past the second stage of Thomasin's puzzle. I link it all together and the skull lights up but when I click check, it just gives me the same board again no matter how many times I do it.

@Bordeaux there are some black circles on the map with extremely low contrast to the rest of the puzzle. You can't make a path through them, you have to go around.
I found it helped to make the game screen as big as possible and even then I had to memorize certain boards. And yes, you need to start over to make five paths if you fail, so you will get the chance to memorize where those doddrodded black circles are.

Is there some sort of trick to the Thomasin puzzle? I selected the first piece and now it won't let me select the next one. It's like they aren't clickable anymore. Am I doing something wrong?
