You exchange 1 MAGNETICOIN
for a MAGNIFICENT BOWL OF NACHOS.



You also check out the WEIRD DOOR



Each KEYHOLE has different WRITING under it







Fascinating! What next!

[MeimieFan88]

IN MY HAND A SQUAD OF TINY MEN
TO YOU THEY LOOK THE SAME
BUT I HAVE AN ADVANTAGE
FOR I KNOW EACH ONE BY NAME


(capital L looks the same as lower case T? they both look like a reverse '3')


YOU BEAT ME DOWN TO GIVE
YOUR HOUSEHOLD IMMORTALITY
IN THE COFFIN I BECOME
A SYMBOL OF FINALITY


(ooh there's a tiny difference between L and T. T's curves look more round)


BURNING HATE AND FIERY RAGE
HAVE ALL BUT GIVEN WAY
WITH COOLER FACE AND SHARPER EDGE
IS HOW I KILL TODAY


(translated thanks to

Spoiler: "Alphabet 1.0" (click to show/hide)

. hope everything is correct!)

Interestingly those keyholes don't seem to be a door. According to the map, the only ways out of this room are left, downleft (the way we came), and downright. So I wonder what purpose they serve. I suppose we just have to figure out the riddles and place the corresponding items in the slots to find out.

The first riddle I'm not sure on. Perhaps pebbles or rocks. My main reasoning being the other two riddles seem geology related.

The second I'm thinking is dirt. You "beat down" dirt to create bricks or a foundation for a house to make it last, and during a funeral covering a coffin with dirt is often used for closure or "finality".

The third I believe is obsidian. Obsidian is a volcanic (burning hate and fiery rage) glass that fractures with very sharp edges (with cooler face and sharper edge) and was often used historically for weapons (is how I kill today).

Consume nachos with Lizard.

(I'm helping.)

[birdy51]

Aye. May as well talk with him about the riddle and communicate what we know.

Then wear the empty nacho bowl as a hat.

[metamancer]

The writing on that door is RIDDLES.


I LOVE RIDDLES!




In my hand, a squad of tiny men;
To you they look the same.
But I have an advantage,
For I know each one by name.


Hmmm...


You beat me down to give
Your household immortality;
In the coffin, I become
A symbol of finality.


Okay.


Burning hate and fiery rage
Have all but given way;
With cooler face and sharper edge
Is how I kill today.


Cool.


I think the coffin one might be dirt?


What does dirt have to do with coffins?
Coffins are...


Well, I guess Yade is probably
being sent off right now.

[FallacyofUrist]

I'm thinking the coffin one might be Death.

[crazyabe]

I'm thinking the coffin one might be Death.

If you didn't notice the Coffin in the last three Things had a Key on it, I think that relates to one of the Riddles.

[Mooply]

Or like... the key is the... you know... key to the door.

[Durithill]

Quick! TRANSCEND CONTEXT and grab the key before it melts in the lava!

[endlessblaze]

+1 to the above

[snow dwarf]

Sorry if this question was asked, but do you mind sharing what you use for drawing? A drawing tablet or mouse?

[metamancer]

I have a digital tablet.
Specifically a Wacom Intuos 4.
It's like seven years old and it still works great!

[birdy51]

Transcend Context indeed. Let's get that key!

[HugeNerdAndProudOfIt]

Im guessing the: Burning hate and fiery rage
Have all but given way;
With cooler face and sharper edge
Is how I kill today.

Is Obsidian.
