Altador Plot Solutions - Part 12 - Gatherer

There seems to be a strange pattern in the watermark on this certificate...

107. Go to the Archivist to get your coordinates updated.

The archivist says, "Ah, the Vaeolus seems to be feeling much better now. He can stay here until he's ready to leave, of course. I'm sure he'd like to get back to his owner!"

"And another clue!" he says. "It seems we draw ever closer to solving this mystery. Quickly, to the observatory!"

108. You now need to visit your telescope and plot it out! Use this tool to easily find your constellation!

109. Once you’ve found it, go check out the ceiling above Fauna’s statue to see the gems lit up.

110. Check the Janitor , Astronomy Club Members , and Archivist different citizens and see what they have to say!

The janitor says, "Wow, it's getting really bright in here with all these gems lighting up on the ceiling. Only two left! I wonder if anything special happens when all of them are lit up. Now that would be something to see."

The Astronomy Club members greet you warmly as you enter the room... except the club president, who isn't here.

The Wocky, Korbat, and Buzz approach. "No, we haven't gotten rid of him yet. He left just as we were about to take over. We're gonna wait by the door, and when he comes back in, that's when we'll make our move! Get ready!" They hide by the door, waiting for the club president to return... although it could be a few days.

The archivist says, "It was obvious, really -- Fauna, the Gatherer, protector of Petpets. How fortunate that you happened upon that wounded Vaeolus. He finished his recovery while you were gone, and left to find his owner."

He opens a book on his desk to a particular page. "This is an ancient Altadorian spellbook. It doesn't have any history in it that I could find -- no real surprise there -- but it does have some magics which might have been used as... parts of a larger spell, I suppose. Now, this evidence is rather circumstantial, but the kinds of magics in this book are about hiding knowledge and erasing memories." He flips to the inside cover. Some words are hand-written on the front page:

This book donated to the Altadorian Archives by Jerdana

He swallows, looks around nervously, and whispers to you. "You must keep this secret! If Jerdana were to hear of this, well -- she might kill us, or worse! And that's assuming she even remembers what happened -- she might have made sure that the spell affected her own memory, so that she could honestly deny any knowledge of what she did. At least, until the spell was broken, and then..." He shrugs. "Who knows what machinations she's planning?" He coughs. "Assuming that Jerdana even is the one behind this. She might just be a pawn of Altador's, or some other power entirely... We must be vigilant if we are to survive this."

Then head back to the Book of Ages to read the next part.
