    Gwahaha! That will teach you to try to take on the hardest part of the riddle!

    Tut!!! Do we have to keep the letters in the order we find them? Please tell us that much? :P (it's not telling us which one)
    I'll figure it out later...

    We've also noticed that the first half (to the letter) of each line is an anagram of the second half of the line.

    Confused, the vulgar see

    Vengeful death's course

    These two are complete anagrams of each other.

    As are these:

    Heaven's flute scourged,

    Even focus slaughtered.

    So basically it's like folding those 2 lines into 4 on a bit of paper. BUT WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? :P

    Do we use only the ONE set of lines? :P

    And for what it's worth, it's 20 letters each.
    I'll figure it out later...

    Yes, indeed. Took you long enough to notice that

    Bwaha!

    That's the first stage nearly complete, but you now need to realise what to do with those letters

    And that is nigh on impossible!

    haha maybe so, maybe not


    EDIT: Has the "puzzle" you've used been used before? or is it something you've come up with yourself (asin is it a type of puzzle that has been used before, or have you figured a new way out yourself) sorry if that doesn't make sense.

    Mercen-X: *Mumbles..."evil post deleter making me double post.. nyah..grrr"* I don't think so, (daniel says) because the comma's would have to too. but they're not.

    I came up with it myself, in a moment of evil genius...

    Two quick questions:

    1) Lindblum has not been confirmed to NOT be the location of the answer, right?

    2) Has Thingfish really confirmed that the Watchman is a real person?

    1: If you look back, you'll see he's not confirmed anything to do with the location of the answer. All he's mentioned is that the answer can be seen in more than one location, unsure of it if is on all discs, but he knows they are on more than one. Although their lines are only on the one disc.

    2: As far as we know the Watchman is the person who knows his real name and I would think that the "heir" would be this watchman, we know that the heir is not a person, but I do not believe we know that the watchman is human or an object.
    I'll figure it out later...

    Let me quote myself from page 40 of the last topic :

    '"Watchman to mine own" refers to the one person who speaks 'my' (the answer's) full name (mine own).'

    EDIT: Ah, entered the post screen before Thingfish's post.

    If the Watchman is a person, that dissapoints me. You ever heard of Roodle Faux, Thingfish? Can't be the answer unfortunately, because his name is not revealed by a person. But there are still plenty more to go!

    I have indeed heard of him. Not him though. Bit of a random guess from Sir.B. there...

    Thingfish: You know that anagrams were part of the puzzle. Well seeing as those 2 lines are basically anagrams of themselves. Is there something else we're looking for in one of those sections or are we rearranging them again?

    Because of what you said about we've got to keep them in a certain order, if we rearrange them then that'd defeat the whole point as we'd still get the same things altogether.

    So are we looking for another anagram or something else?
    I'll figure it out later...
