Many have gotten lost in the currents or popped by an unwitting passerby. But still more have gotten corrupted by the Depths. This corruption could destabilize the strings of time and fate. We cannot help you, for Water magic will only make things worse. Please, help us track these corrupted prophecy bubbles down and reverse the growing darkness. For all our sakes. [b][END TRANSMISSION][/b] [/center] [size=5]What is this?[/size] Five key prophecies have gone missing, and their corrupted scraps have been flung asunder into the unforgiving Sea! Water flight technicians have determined that they will surface in six key locations over the next two weeks: - The Hub - Clairvoyage - Into the Undertow - Dreamrescue Dive - Momma Kyuth's Fortune Cookies - Tidepool Scavenging Coded messages will either be [b]posted directly in these above threads[/b] or [b]PMed randomly to participants in these activities[/b] with a link to this thread and a strong encouragement to post here. Finders of prophecies who post their discoveries for everybody will earn [color=cadetblue]an exclusive badge[/color]. Anyone who posts here who tries to help solve the coded messages will earn (a different) [color=cadetblue]exclusive badge[/color] and also... you know, will help save the world! A corrupted prophecy will look like this: [columns][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431902044719415306/CorruptedBubblesmall.png[/img][nextcol][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431905468772777984/TidelordNoLongerSpeaks.png[/img][size=5][color=#324c6e]prophecy prophecy prophecy prophecy prophecy prophecy prophecy prophecy prophecy prophecy prophecy [/size] [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431905468772777984/TidelordNoLongerSpeaks.png[/img][/columns] [size=2]You have found a Corrupted Prophecy Bubble! Paste the message you see above into this thread here: http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/2418570#post_2418570 to[b] collect your badge[/b]. If you'd like, stick around to solve it![/size] Most prophecies will be in coded text, but some may come in the form of images or audio where the text would be. All are solvable by the brave and diligent. If you have already solved one (or more than one) prophecy(ies), you are encouraged to let other people take a crack at them for the sake of fun. Of course, if nobody has any ideas, go right ahead! [size=5]What do I need to know?[/size] - There are five prophecies. They are usually split up into couplets with different encryptions on each couplet. - Prophecies are roughly distributed in order, both generally (1 to 5) and within the prophecy (line order), but often will be. - The difficulty of encryption ramps up within each prophecy (from first to last line). - Most, but not all, prophecies will have a theme to the encryption of their couplets. - Most correct translations will end up rhyming. - Some encryptions may not be a part of any of the prophecies. - The order prophecies are distributed in will usually be the order you need to solve them with. - If the thread is stuck, ping [size=5]Where do I start?[/size] Water agents have already located three prophecies: [columns][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431902044719415306/CorruptedBubblesmall.png[/img][nextcol][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431905468772777984/TidelordNoLongerSpeaks.png[/img][size=5][color=#324c6e]prophecy 20-8-5 3-12-1-14-19 15-14 12-1-14-4 6-9-14-4-9-14-7 14-15-20-8-9-14-7 1-13-9-19-19 [/size] [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431905468772777984/TidelordNoLongerSpeaks.png[/img][/columns] [columns] [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431902044719415306/CorruptedBubblesmall.png[/img][nextcol][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431905468772777984/TidelordNoLongerSpeaks.png[/img][size=5][color=#324c6e]prophecy Fiaevi fiaevi fiaevi xli fiewx Xlex pyvow amxlmr csyv vmfgeki [/size] [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431905468772777984/TidelordNoLongerSpeaks.png[/img][/columns] [columns][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431902044719415306/CorruptedBubblesmall.png[/img][nextcol][img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431905468772777984/TidelordNoLongerSpeaks.png[/img][size=5][color=#324c6e]prophecy - .-- .. -..- - / - .. -- . / .- -. -.. / ... .--. .- -.-. . / - .-- .. -..- - / .-.. .- -. -.. / .- -. -.. / ... . .- / - .... . / -... .- .-. .-. .. . .-. / .... .- ... / .... . .-.. -.. / - .... . -- [/size] [img]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/409907374980202508/431905468772777984/TidelordNoLongerSpeaks.png[/img][/columns] [size=5]Badges?![/size] [b]If you have discovered a scrap and are the first one to post it on this thread:[/b] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/5UUkOCQ.png[/img][/center] [code][img]https://i.imgur.com/5UUkOCQ.png[/img][/code] [b]If you have contributed to solving one or more scraps:[/b] [center][img]https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/434935444296171530/434968973251969044/soiDkDI.png[/img][/center] [code][img]https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/434935444296171530/434968973251969044/soiDkDI.png[/img][/code]

Ooo this sounds interesting!

For the last bubble clue, I think it is Morse Code.

Trying to translate it, I got twixt/time/and/space/twixt/land/and/sea/he/barrier/has/held/them

The first one is numbers instead of the alphabet I think.

I got
The/clans/on/land/finding/nothing/amiss

The middle one is a caesar cipher! I got:

BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE THE BEAST THAT LURKS WITHIN YOUR RIBCAGE

(@kalideoscope ahhh didnt notice the title until after i posted as there were already comments; should i delete this?)

I think I have found something?

@Starstream @TruthandLies @Fortuna
I think I have all the posts I need, so you can leave them, but as I'm not quite done setting up the OP yet I'd like to ask you all to refrain from posting further until I notify you :)

The linked post (by GryffonJoi) is not a part of Corrupted Prophecies but is instead just a thematic message. You can tell because it's not in the CP format (as seen in the OP) and is not in one of the six threads listed in the OP!

@Starstream @TruthandLies @Fortuna
Go ahead!

@Kalideoscope

Sweet! Thanks!

Haha I was hoping it was a clue xD
