So, "morning" in the plot is 6 PM subeta time (eastern) and I guess THEN we'll see if anything else is happening. Not too much longer now . . .

Uh oh, we released merana...this is what it says when i visit her temple:
Oh No! Merana is no longer bound to the Omen Islands, and she's nowhere to be found

What if we didn't free Marena, but angered the beast of mountains? Yes, Shiwa placed a seal on her, but it only prevent her from leaving. The thing kept her from totally razed the island is the beast...

When I saw that the glow from the stone was gone after we touched it I totally thought the glow flowed into us. It could happen... We have the power?

@flamboyantCuttlefish experiment #404 is there and says, "you can't find merana!". so you know, i thought she was gone.
@Laurey i have access to almost everything else, so that's prolly it.

@pocari If you don't have the map completed, I wouldn't be surprised if you weren't able to access her. I'm still curious though; what /does/ happen when you try to click on her temple?

I went to the temple, clicked and it was all dead in the next page. I got another page after clicking and it was just messages about a volcano and hurry down he mountain

I'm calling it. We've released Godzilla. He's going to rise out of the sea, do a little jig, make the Omen Islands sink into the abyss, then make a beeline to Centropolis and destroy it.
There he is! I see him doing a fresh jig!
And there he is making his way to Centropolis! OH THE HUMANITY!

@pocari You're gonna have to be a lot more specific. You click on her temple, and then what happens? It takes you to a blank page? It takes you to a page that says you can't find Merana? What?

flamboyantCuttlefish
@pocari Er...what do you mean? She's accessible from the village, for me at least.

I think our HA skins are going to slowly be turning Hydrus (like infected human Hydrus) - so something cool that will be happening at some point, but that you may or may not want to stay up for and will still be happening 10 hours from now. o:

I nearly lost it at shrines to Butterface. Good job Blake.
Also, Elwood, thanks for showing you care. /sarcasm

All I can figure is, Shinwa is wrong because she's just as conceited as Maleria, I mean she literally justified destroying her own world to "defeat" Maleria... And so far chalk two children having their lives destroyed via Shinwa's inaction, (MonoRi and Amy) And this we have Merana who sucks more though in this case because you know, human sacrifice. Although I am quite sure she's been attempting to make people her Hydrus slaves or something, like how Maeria could turn her followers into dark matter people.
It sort of sucks that Subeta's pantheon is filled with basically worthless gods and goddesses because what's the point of Shinwa anyhow? She's powerless if she leaves her stinkin temple.
At any rate, the Islanders need to know the truth about that their king did and be given a choice about keeping either one of the brothers on.

xD It's the same definition of "just a few more minutes" that everyone uses when the alarm goes off in the morning, it's still dark and it's cold outside the blanket fort and nobody is waiting with breakfast and coffee. "just a few more minutes" would be around two hours or one if breakfast is included.
I shall go to sleep if we're not going to miss anything. ^^

*thinking positive*
So, now that we've absorbed the crystal, we can all make dinos whenever we want, right?
If that's the case, I might have preferred it(crystal) being added to the Blue Building or something instead, since then the 'special pets' would be available in one place. And, a place that you have to work(?) to get in to.
Oh, and don't forget that Shinwa's only good because she told us she is. I haven't seen her do anything good and a lot of the stories sure don't show her that way... :p
But, why am I thinking about any of that right now? We apparently have days of running out of the jungle to deal with! Hope downhill will be faster, since we didn't all hop in the Van again. Elwood! Your ride's gonna get destroyed!
(Or he left the rest of us behind. haha.)

looked like Merena on the crystal thing, but why don't they end this already? It's dragging to nowhere so far :(

Wait a minute... one of the sentence was "by the morning." Does it mean regular morning time like 6 a.m.-ish, or morning as in once the clock turns from p.m. to a.m. as in 12 midnight?

Laughing out loud at all the gifs.
This place rocks. I willingly admit that events on here are so much more interesting than on that other pet site that has gone so far downhill that it boggles the mind.
Thanks staff. :)

Oh, in case you haven't found it yet, I think they're referring to the mural at the digsite in Saherimos Click for Butterface =)

@Ambition Don't worry, I think there usually isn't any visible surf on the night version of the Omen Islands Village map.

I clicked on the tomb link Blake posted, even refreshed but just saw what I did prior to the boss battle. I shall wait a bit befuddled!

Oooooh I've been thinking that since dialogue mentioned that the island sank some in the past, that we might be raising it up?
Also, having just the dialogue was weird tho. I was like, is there a map here I'm not seeing...

I wouldn't trust Merana any further than I could roll her up into a rubber dodge ball size package and drop kick her

There seems to be something like Tempet in the winds, only it's Merana, free all over Subeta!

From the Merana Subetapedia Article:
"Merana, furious at her banishment and at the Goddess' words, attacked Shinwa with her strongest magic. Shinwa deflected it back onto her, and in that instant Merana was changed into her current serpentine form, her own magic used against her. Before leaving, Shinwa placed a magical seal on the islands to prevent Merana from straying far from the island coasts."
Uh... now I am even more worried...

I wanna sleep, and I want to know what will happen. Oh the struggle.
Please hurry up XD

So when you refresh you get more dialog... and more and more...
You’re making good time on your journey down the mountain. You should arrive in the village by morning.
You’re worried about what is happening in the village, but stay focused on your task: charting a safe path down the steep mountainside as quickly as possible is your main goal.
You try to put worries about the village out of your mind - there are too many hidden stumps, holes, and fronds of toxic plants in the jungle to lose your focus.

Man they keep making references to the sacred lands plot that happened before I joined...
But it always amuses me when they call me by name and I picture them addressing the character who inspired this name... the thought of his reaction to someone saying, "Hey Austria, go explore this abandoned tomb!" is pretty hilarious.

Before you all ask, yes this does seem like a short update. I imagine more will happen tonight as you "do" what the plot step says you're doing ;)
