Episode 7 started yesterday in Myst Online Uru Live and I just happened to be there when Douglas Sharper and Nick White came to the Watcher's Pub!
Guess what came with Sharper???
The dead bahro he killed and 2 live ones! It looked like they were mourning the dead one!
I will post the pic I took and I also have the chatlog, but I don't have time to edit it down yet. I will post the full version if you want to see it now.
WooHoo!

Wow! Did they suddenly link in from out of nowhere? What do you think it means? (I'm so glad you were there to see it.)

I have a very bad feeling about this.

Me too, gamenut, but I don't think it will happen (Moul sub forum).

That's great, UruKat! Thanks for the picture, too! bravo

Thanks! I've been looking on YouTube to see if there was one there.

It looks like the farthest Bahro kept trying to push away anybody that got close. Was that what it looked like to you?

Where was Sharper this whole time?

Hi Becky,
I acually never saw where Sharper was atanding, although I know he was somewhere close to where the bahro were. I was up on the balcony looking down and there were so many people in there, I had a hard time moving and searching the crowd.

I was standing right next to Nick White the whole time and I had a good view from the top.

It looked to me like that too....that the one standing up and moving around was keeping people away, and the other one sitting by the dead one seemed overcome with grief.
There was no aggressiveness by the bahro, in spite of the crowds. Even when some people were "touching" it, it made no aggressive moves.

If you read the log carefully too, you can see that Sharper did not bring the dead bahro with him. He was very surprised when it appeared. But he did say "That's the one" which I guess means it was the one he killed.

It seemed like they were trying to show us what an awful thing Sharper did.

BTW...there was a new opening last night.........

I know I'm probably the only one obsessed with Words of the Watcher (the 5 books found in the Watcher's Pub). I thought I'd draw up my "guesses" as to what some of the lines and descriptions in it mean. I realize that some of my guesses are bound to be wrong. I'm hoping that when "Familiar Voices" is over, there will be more answers for some of this stuff.

Anyway -- it's full of serious spoilers, of course.

Click to reveal..
Who's Who


The Maker -- Yahvo, the D'ni name for God
The Gathered -- Explorers, these may also be called
"The New Ones." They have been brought to the Cavern through
Yeesha's influence.
The Least -- The Bahro
The Remnant -- Survivors of the Fall of D'ni -- they find
a new home on Releeshan (mentioned in Myst III: Exile and Myst
V: End of Ages)

Atrus and his Family

The Burdened One -- Atrus -- also referred to as "the son of the son"
in the last stanza in Words -- his burden is to care for the survivors
of D'ni
His Wife -- Catherine -- Catherine is also mentioned as the one who
"...will face the storm" and she is also (I think) the one who's
writing/dreaming will save many worlds -- she is a
Dreamer/Visionary
The Sons of the Burdened One -- Sirris and Achenar
The Desert Bird -- Yeesha, also the daughter who carries
her father's burden

Extended Family

The Rebuilder of Pride -- Gehn, Atrus' father
The Destroyer -- Ti'ana, Atrus' grandmother
The Daughter of the Daughter -- would seem to refer to
Yeesha's daughter, whoever that may be...

Others

The Ten Eyes -- the five leaders of the D'ni Restoration Council?
Also possibly referred to as "A New Five"
Vagabonds -- Individuals who come to the Cavern along with the
DRC, or (possibly even) with the Gathered or the Bahro. Those who use
the discovery of D'ni for their own advantage.
The Accuser -- Esher fulfills this role in Myst V, but there may
be another Accuser later in the story that this is referring to
The Deceiver -- see spoiler below
"This Great Tree of Wickedness The D'ni civilization shortly
before the fall -- "They will subdue the weak and it will be their
undoing" -- The way the D'ni chose to treat the Bahro and others that were used as secret slaves -- "The kingdom of D'ni is not made of rock and stone, but heart and mind."
The rebuilding of D'ni may be as much moral and spiritual as it is physical.

If you haven't played the Path of the Shell Expansion Pack or
Myst V: End of Ages, this is a spoiler:

[spoiler]The Grower -- Yeesha
The Deceiver -- Kadish


A list of Historical Figures

The Watcher -- writer of Words
The Voice -- possibly Tevahr (see the journal about King Rakeri)
The Giver -- possibly King Kedri, who gave The Age of Kings
to the people
The Destroyer Ti'Ana, grandmother of Atrus
The Seeker Someone who seeks and shares truths. Calam,Yeesha's teacher? Phil if he returns? Dr. Watson if he returns?
The Grower -- see above Spoiler
The Builder -- not yet identified. May be a Builder of peace,
rather than a Builder of something more concrete. The Builder will be
wounded in some way.

The Mysterious Seven

Quote:
Seven they are, Though little do they realize, Only four is seen
as they see, For seven is one, and one is seven.
I think this means the Bahro. They are seen as
four -- four Bahro poles to rescue -- but they are also associated
with the number seven (seven journey cloths to free them in each age,
seven numbers to press to open the Bahro doors in Delin and Tsogal)


What's What

The Wound in the Desert -- the Cleft
The Hill of Fire -- the volcano used to fashion an entrance down to D'ni
A Puddle Frozen in Time -- may mean the small pond in the Cleft
Another Place -- Releeshan, the age Atrus wrote for the D'ni
survivors of the Fall
The Age of the Rebuilder of Pride -- Riven
Row of keys under bones in the jail cell -- the jail in Teledahn
The Faces of Stone -- the Bahro glyphs?
Cloth that does not Burn -- the cloth used on the Bahro stones?
A Storm Approaches -- we are seeing the beginnings of this
conflict now

Paths

The Path of the Shell -- this starts in Er'Cana and would appear
to be bound up with D'ni history immediately before the Fall, and with
the family of Atrus
The Path of the Stone -- I think this is related to the Bahro
-- Linking stones, caves of stone, stone Bahro poles, and (in Myst V)
stone tablets and stone pedestals -- "The bound will know of the path
of the stone" The Bahro are bound/enslaved. In another interpretation,
the Path of the Stone also could be the tasks undertaken that create stone wedges in Relto -- Delin, Tsogal, the Pod ages, etc.
The Path of Light -- No clue

"Follow the patient path." Anyone rushing things or cutting corners
ought to be viewed with suspicion.
"A grower to join the paths." This may refer to a joining in some fashion
of the Gathered (explorers), the Remnant (survivors of D'ni) and possibly even the Bahro (the Least). Or it may refer to a joining
of the Path of the Shell, the Path of the Stone and the Path of Light.

sierramindy, gamenut and I (nay) saw you in the new place - we were trying to communicate with you, but I don't think you had your KI on? Oh well...so many there - it was hard to move....see you there another day! wave

Sorry I missed you both even though I was looking to see if I knew anyone. But I guess I was concentrating too much on just getting around. I had trouble moving once because I hit a letter key instead of an arrow and my avatar would not move until I typed something so I just did a /clearchat (twice in fact because the first time I forgot the / mark) and that's about when I decided I wasn't doing too great navigating in a mob scene. Of course, I also have problems when I'm alone because I mix up left and right and up/forward and down/backward. When others complain about bumping into walls due to poor game controls, I always think "I should be so lucky" since I always have such problems in all games. For me, it is normal.

I'm the same way, SierraMindy. I have to stay in first person most of the time so I can navigate correctly. When I go to third person, I start walking into walls.

I have to say, I think that the Bahro are on EST. Because everything exciting seems to happen in the middle of the afternoon while I'm at work! By the time I get online in the evenings, everyone is just sitting around talking about all their Bahro sightings that day. Or arguing about Sharper. I'm tempted to call in sick tomorrow. *cough cough* LOL

Lor, Old Man and Nanjoan just helped me do Minkata! Much more fun than wandering around Minkata in the dark on my own, looking for holes that glow.

Old Man has an amazing sense of direction. (This comes in handy in Minkata. smile )

I was there when she released it! Okay, I didn't manage to see her actually placing it there, but I did "hear" her doing it.

Jalak is not at all what I expected. Did you folks figure it out after I'd left?

Hey, sierramindy - Kirel has been opened as well as a new age called Jalak, which was just released today. About Jalak, Becky:

Click to reveal..

I've managed to get a much needed "item" there, but so far just having fun with the pillars and the blue squares and balls....otherwise, not too sure what to do by myself. I know the notebook says they're not sure what games were played, either..

Oh yeah, what's with all the marijuana plants?! crazy duh

Many of us are finding Jalak to be something of a bust. Apparently...

Click to reveal..
The only thing to do there is play games, like a sports center. You don't move from the pillars. While that would be cool within a larger age, it feels a bit like we've been short-changed to have that be the only thing in the age. Especially with all that wonderful jungle just beyond our reach. I want to run and explore!! LOL


In other news, Cate showed up tonight just as I was about to sign off. She was looking for someone in Kirel but agreed to answer some questions. It took me a bit to remember the command Kat told me for starting a chat log but I managed it around question two. What I don't know is where it is stored and how to get it here. Can anyone help?

I did have an embarrassing moment when Cate was talking. I managed to be one of the first people in Kirel when Cate appeared so I was right in front, sitting down. My avvie did one of her "stand up and walk around at random" moves that she sometimes does when things get laggy. She walked right past Cate and into the wall behind her. Someone "shouted" out - "This is not a photo op!" Um, I'm walking into a wall and not stopping, not walking up next to Cate and saying cheese. It's obvious something is wonky. LOL I love this game, but some people really take it waaaaaay to seriously...

Renee -- Hmmm. I didn't notice that about the foliage. I'll have to take a second look. Sometimes I think game designers are trying to come up with creative new plants and don't realize they resemble something "real." (I still think the tree in the cleft looks just like a pistachio tree, for instance.)

Celtic -- my avatar did exactly the same thing right before the parade started during the St. Patrick's Day celebration in the GameBoomers bevin. It is embarrassing, isn't it? laugh

Congratulations on seeing Cate up close! What did you think of her?

EDIT: By the way, the "Familiar Voices" episode should be near or at an end. Anybody recognize a familiar voice yet?

Celtic Lark.....you crack me up!!

I'm sitting here first thing in the morning, drinking my coffee, and checking my email and of course, my fave forum, Gameboomers, and I read your post and start laughing out loud!!

I can just visualize your avie!! Too funny!

I am really hoping there is something we don't know yet about Jalak. I really can't believe that is all there is to it. Especially when the message from the DRC says something about lots of space to run??
Maybe we will discover a way to get over the walls and explore.....if not, I will be really disappointed. When I was online last night, hardly anyone was in Jalak, after about 1/2 hour, it gets boring.
But I keep thinking about Minkata, and when I first went there I was thinking....okay....a big desert with nothing but sand and a few flags.....what's up with that? But it turned out to be way more that meets the eye.

BTW...to see your chat logs, open your Uru Live folder from wherever you have it installed to (mine is in my documents), and then open the folder that says "Log" and all your chat logs will be stored there. They are listed as "Chat0, Chat1, etc..
ALSO....all the KI pictures you have taken (even deleted ones) are stored there in your "KI Images" folder. You will need to dl the free program from www.irfanview.com in order to open and view them.
Have a great day fellow explorers!

Hmmm.... I went to that folder and I have alert logs and error logs but no chat logs. Maybe I was supposed to do something special after I closed the log to save it? I definitely got confirmation that the log both started and stopped. Weird.

Well, she basically said that she was looking for someone. Can't remember his name - didn't make a note because I thought I had the log - but it was something like Renetree. Apparently he's been instrumental in helping to form the new guilds and helping to introduce them. My impression is that he is a "real" explorer. Cate agreed to answer a few questions but they were mostly about stuff from the past that I didn't understand. Again, I figured I had the chat log and you all would know what was being discussed!

She warned us all to be careful with the Bahro about and said that their presence has been slowing down the restoration but they are still moving forward.

I'm sure someone else who was there did a log and posted it in one of the Myst forums. Sorry I'm kind of useless on this!!

Kat, glad I could make you laugh. You're usually there when I have those moments so I know you have a great visual of that. LOL

Becky - It really is embarrassing when Lark goes all weird like that. I'm not even touching the mouse or keyboard when she does it. She just suddenly decides she's had enough sitting around and needs to stretch her legs. I'm left frantically clicking my mouse and shouting at the screen "Where are you going? I didn't say you could get up!. Sit back down, young lady!" I have discovered that if I click on both mouse buttons at once, she will start "listening" to me again and sheepishly allows me to put her back where I want her. But honestly, if she's a representation of me, I really shouldn't be surprised that she doesn't like to always follow the rules or go along with the crowd. lol

Celtic Lark -- thanks for the info that pushing both mouse buttons stops the out-of-control avatar. I was screaming my head off when it happened to me, too. My family thought I was suddenly losing it. (Even more than usual.)

What does everybody think about the Familiar Voice that showed up in the Cavern yesterday?

Click to reveal..
Were you surprised that it was Phil Henderson? It sounds as though it was very dramatic!

Hmmm. I wonder if Phil will turn out to be the Seeker mentioned in Words. I wish he would "share" a bit more. Will he continue to visit the Cavern between episodes, I wonder?
