So, I was scribing to my Tome here, while enjoying my tall glass of ale, as I usually do. Traditionally, I'll take a drink after every word, which really is the best way to write, in case you haven't tried it. Naturally, my mug ran out quickly (I might have been taking bigger drinks this time), and I went to refill it. Then I drank the refill, and refilled it again (of course). When I returned, I found something curious laid over my Tome. I think I've seen this writing before, but I cannot recall where for the life of me. Perhaps this is something you all can help me with? Ugh... it looks like there's more parts, too... a lot more parts. Good luck, my friends! Let me know what you find out! *goes back to his tall... oh! It's empty again...*
That is definitely the same front as those from the Sentinel's Fate screenshots. http://everquest2.com/media/screenshots
Updating this thread since it's early in the post; Kiara has stated in page 2 that the names of the picture images have nothing to do with their placement, but we have been using the names to have a reference when we're solving them. The OP in this thread: Arasai (Solved)EQ2 Wire - Barbarian, Battle and Bixie (All Solved) ZAM - Bread, Cazic and Cereal (All solved or being worked on) Stargrace (MMO Quests) - Erudite, Froglok and Galactica (Erudite Solved) EQ2 Traders - Color and Dark Elf (All Solved) Ten Ton Hammer - Halfling, Human, High Elf and Innoruuk (All Solved) MMORPG Info - Gems, Half Elf and Gnoll (All Solved) The Anthenaeum - Lore 1, Lore 2, Lore 3 and Lore 4 (Lore 1 & Lore 4 are solved) Legion of Kithicor - Milk, Kittens, Kerran and Rainbow (Milk Solved) Massively - Ratonga, Star, Troll and Tunare (Tunare is solved) Thrads is keeping track of all of the currently solved puzzle pieces! ---- Ok, I did some searching on the forums here, and found a link to an Erudite alphabet decoder. Hopefully it's accurate. Since Thrads is working on Arasai, I'll start working on Barbarian. Disclaimer same as Thrads, some characters may be off.

As a lover of stories (and because I can never remember lore to save my life), I always keep tabs on the Athenaeum. It seems that our Keeper Rapha has been a busy bee and found something that may be of use to us!
Cyliena@Everfrost wrote: I assume that this is a wheel, and that we should begin reading at the one that is closest to the beginning of the alphabet (arasai, so far) then move to the next in the alphabet (bararian, then battle, bixie, bread, cazic, cereal, etc). That or it spirals inwards, when the wheel is done. We'll see. I'm working on trying to assemble all the images into a cohesive whole. Someone may be better at this though.
Thrads wrote: Aye, that's what I'm gathering too. I hope you can assemble them--I'm terrible at that. Anyone know what the picture names for the ones on The Athenaeum are called?

Also interesting is that when I opened up arasai in paint some additional letters showed up to the right of it...
You tricky little dwarf... arasai and barbarian don't connect properly. Either we're missing a piece, or the names of the pieces are purely for Cron to reference =P
So, I was on my way to lunch when Kaisha sent me a message on facebook, asking if I'd checked for mail from SOE. Did I mention that I'm famished yet? Anyway, yep, I had mail waiting from Kiara. I'll let you folks figure it out ... red-haired halfing needs food, badly!
I think I have Lore 1 Translated from the Athenaeum site (are those the original pic names? Lore 1, 2, 3 and 4?) Line 1: LP TOPURCHASE Line 2: O SEEPRESERVE Line 3: HAVE COMBINE Line 4: U WILL HEARCOM Line 5: SEEN FROM ME
