Thereâs a lot happening here at the sanctuary, (follow-up impending) but Iâve also spent the past 24 hours catching up on everything thatâs happened here on the forum.
Youâve been busy.

You know us; keep on keepinâ on, even in the midst of the possible destruction of the world as we know it! Maybe especially in the midst of that. Hope you heal up well and quickly; I feel terrible that you got hurt waiting to hear from us.
I wonder why the Guide un-revoked your access to the Forum? Not that Iâm complaining, itâs lovely to hear from you! Just curious how it happened, and whether anyone else from the original core might make it back in, as well.
And I was going to suggest you guys should obviously prioritize safety over advertising at this point, but then I remembered I probably wouldnât be here if the Mountaineers had gone underground when The Storm was after us, soâŚyeah. Do you think there are people out there who just canât see the MAGIQ Guide? Like, are they misdirected whenever they look at the URL? Is there some sort of Determiner-based 404 error?

weâve missed you Eaves.
Yeah, weâve been busy, and sabes has been really making sure we stay on our toes with all the being possessed and stuff.
So, my guess is once we found and completed the puzzle for our guild bearings, it may have allowed others who have, or had, access to the guide to reconnect via the bearings. especially since theyâre more connecting with how we are. also 18s are lucky for us right?
Have you had Endri give it a shot? maybe she can regain access as well?
just as a test of course.

Maybe the veil let Eaves back in because weâd need something of/from Sanctuary to modify the determiner spell?

Silly question. Are we sure the veil is still up?

I feel like if the veil had fallen recently, weâd have the Silver on us already, tearing the network apart. I guess we could try contacting others who were outside again to see if they can get back in now, or if itâs just Eaves who was given permission as a go-between.
Actually, thatâs really interesting. Before, none of us inside could contact anyone on the outside, either. It was almost always someone outside giving us a way through the cracks, so to speak. But @Eaves, if youâve been moved âinside,â while youâre physically with another group who are âoutsideâ but know about the Forum, can you still talk to them about us? Or is the info one-way only now, were you can talk to them, but not vice-versa? Or are you the awkward lone individual whoâs stuck in the middle of us now?
And I, for one, would love to hear about this coma dream you hadâŚ

Maybe the wall isnât as rigid as we thought? Like @Eaves said,
Maybe the Guide determiner is always determining? It would be a pretty useful trait if it could change its âmindâ based on need or necessity?
From the AGP side, we can see in our analytics that there are a lot of people who come to the Guide site but donât âjoin up.â Thereâs always a big discrepancy between visitors and sign ups. We always thought it was because it was too weird for them or they just thought it was a game. Maybe⌠the Guide doesnât let them sign up?
Also, we now have access to the bearings pages on the backend. They just⌠appeared two days ago. Weâre trying to figure out whereâs the best place to put them and grant access to everyone. We donât want to overwhelm new recruits with so much information. Weâre working up plansâŚ

If itâs mind did change, what changed it? Did the mirror witchâs attachment to Ascender have anything to do with it? If the Bearings did unlock the Veil, whereâs everybody else? Did they also resign themselves like Marty had? How do we get the word out that weâre accessible again without accidentally letting the Silver in (if they were/are, in fact, part of the access issue)?

I donât think the bearings unlocked the veil.
I think our Peering Arts spell did what it was originally intended to do. It gave us deeper insight into the written work we were (inadvertently) focusing on. And just to clarify, though I have little to no idea what Iâm talking about, I think that the Guide may have changed its mind about Eaves not everyone. Since heâs the only one whoâs reached out so far.
If anything, it makes me worry about him and everyone else at the sanctuary, because it might mean theyâre in serious danger.

So what youâre saying is⌠The guide has decided Eaves is one of us after all, despite his absence? I mean, that makes sense, right? He was one of the first of us, and he undoubtedly has the heart of a Mountie.

That or the guide decided that he was no threat, or he is truly someone we need.
either way, I hope we can get our friends back. I miss them.
