Just 22 left!
I’m off to bed, but great work so far everyone!
16 would be tree.
Looking at both the number patterns and the sheer number of Fs in it, I think 22 is five.
Just need to figure out the rest.
5- HIGBIDTIMPERATUR
Replace second letter with I, drop last letter
High body temperature
Fever
Five -5
7- DRINKXIXSMALXAMOUNTX
Replace last letter with X
Drink in small amounts
Sip
Six -6
11- BCUXIUHOUTXOSDS
First and third letter are one off
Act without words.
Mime
Nine -9
16#- LHRGEPHANTWHTHTHUNK
Large plant with a trunk
Tree
Thee - 3
22- FETAFIXINFINFFOL
25- EXHALETEUDIBLYTEITHTEELIEFT
Add T at the end, change first letter to E
Exhale audibly with relief
Sigh
Eight -8
27- DNGAGEHNBONFLICTVITH
First letter is one off of actual letter
Engage in conflict
Fight
Eight -8
29- RETENHTHTOHTNOHT,ITHTGNORANCHT
Take away the first letter, replace with the last one with HT
Pretend to not know, with ignorance
Feign
Eight -8
Current working theory for 22: F replaces the first letter, the last letter is removed:
FETAFIXINFINFFOL
metal mixing _in* _* _ol* ?
Side note on this newest information: more Minnying vibes. “The message Cat sent on to Vidivinty for preparation.”
This is from the poem:
“The minnying of Ojorad was held at Vidivinty’s glade, a notion Good King Capra had that proper reverence be paid to one who fell on Baryn soil, in diamond coat of blue and red.”
I think whatever is on this box has to do with the preparations the mourners made after the death of Ojorad. That’s the reason for the heartbreak in the note. This “unryhme” poem is like a prequel to the events that occur in the Minnying.
I know the relation to the Minnying has been brought up before, but I thought it was interesting that is is happening beforehand. I don’t know why, but it didn’t click with me until this latest line.
metal mixing ()in() ()() ()ol()
Maybe “Metal mixing mineral”?
hmmmmm, ol though
Well, it seems that F turns into a M so maybe “metal mixing min() m() mol()”
()eta() ()ixin() ()in() ()() ()ol()
metal mixing mind my mold
metal mixing mint my mole
Petal
Betas
Retax
Fetas
some of these are… a stretch
Possibly “metal mixing mint in gold”
Metal mixing find in gold?
Metal mixing mint of gold.
The second word is either fixing, mixing, or nixing (thank you Google!).
