6.5 Challenges, part 1 - Thrones appear in Fire Tiki and Air Tiki Temples

Greetings Tribe!

Happy New year to all. As we remember, the massive observer said something would happen on the new year and finally it has.

As you remember, dear readers, Fish Tiki had taken off for the hills saying he would fix the problem with the Cubes. So far he has not returned. A bit of archeology has dug up a possible remedy for our dilemma. It has to deal with Elemental thrones...

This was the cryptic message that arrived shortly after the first thrones appeared at Fire and Air: Fire Tiki Temple can be found at http://slurl.com/secondlife/FairChang%20Quebrada/40/127/697. Air Tiki Temple can be found at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Gwendolyn/24/46/22.

"It is written that in ancient times, a mysterious and powerful artifact stood in each of the elemental temples: The Four Mystical Thrones of Elemental Tiki Knowledge. In times of danger and trouble, Tribal elders would sit upon the thrones, imbibe mysterious substances, and be granted mystical insights into the problems facing those who followed the way of the Tiki.

Nobody is entirely sure what became of these magical thrones; clearly, they have not been seen in the temples for some time... though it has been suggested that they were temporarily moved to storage one Christmas to "make space for dancing and partying".

A task-force of crack archaeologists has therefore been dispatched to the sub-basement of Fish Tiki's lock-up, to try to locate the missing items of furniture.

Word from the archaeologists suggests that they have recovered four ancient items that might be considered thrones, of sorts... the first of which as been re-installed in the Air Temple.

Be warned - the knowledge obtained from the thrones is likely to be oblique and confusing at first. Fortunately, the great-and-wise Big Stone Head on Initiation Island has offered his services in decoding any messages that are found. We've always been a little confused about why Big Stone Head is here, and what his motives are (he's clearly unlike the other Tiki's, and possibly of a different species entirely)... but we believe his motives are benign.

Needless to say, Kudos will be rewarded to those who are successful in helping us unlock the wisdom of the ancients..."

I have examined one of these thrones and it seems to have a number over it. After speaking with other tribe members, they have determined each throne (so far) has 7 fragments in it. It is guessed you need to get all 7 fragments and take them to Big Stone Head at Lucky Tribe HQ for him to decipher them for you. HQ can be found at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Samoa/107/184/1004.

So on top of this, there are new Kudos at HQ. Make a donation and get the January Kudos badge.

Lastly, if you do not have my Blog Kudos badge, please send me an in world note card saying, "Shep needs to make Miranda a new Blog Kudos Op." and I'll send the first three people who send me that my blog kudos badge.

Good Luck,

Miranda Foehammer

Lucky Tribe News: Return of the Cubes!

Dateline December 11th, 1:57pm - Lucky Tribe HQ. What started out as wonderful day playing Detonation turned to a day of horror as an giant observer cube appeared over Lucky Tribe HQ!

We knew there would be trouble when some naughty person released the captured cube we had quarantined at HQ. But this one was monstrous. Please see the following pictures and the transcription of what was said...

Observer 171B, Second Class: OBSERVING...

Observer 171B, Second Class: OBSERVING...

(Green lasers shot over the assembled crowd scanning us).

Observer 171B, Second Class: OBSERVING COMPLETE, FINDINGS OF OBSERVER 60370, THIRD CLASS HAVE BEEN VERIFIED.

Observer 171B, Second Class: DANGEROUS LEVELS OF TIKI INFLUENCE HAVE BEEN CONFIRMED IN THIS OTHERVERSE.

It then made a statement that we would be assimilated and resistance was useless. It said that this would be done on January 1st... The cube then disappeared, I guess going to another, otherverse?

Fish Tiki, then spoke up and yelled, "look...urm...don't panic... I can fix this... you *do* trust me - your old pal Fish Tiki right?" and with that he was gone. Fish Tiki, unlikely hero. We're not sure if he will call in fish or use his whiffy powers, but he said he can get rid of the cubic threat.

The conversation degenerated after that into who should stand in for Fish Tiki now he was gone and if the high priestess of all things whiffy should be made to stand in his place until he returns... if he returns...

I write this from my bunker, what can Fish Tiki do? We will all stand behind him, at a certain reasonable distance and help as best we can.

Good Luck,

Miranda Foehammer
