Семь Печатей, Тайные Знания ЖрецовSeven Signs, Secret Ritual of the Priests

Good, let's get started.

• "I assume your plan has me disguised?"

x("finishedquest.htm")

(This quest may only be taken by a character who is level 79 or higher, who has already completed the Seven Signs, Contract of Mammon quests.)

It does indeed! We wouldn't put you through all that training and then not make use of it, would we?

Now, I need to tell you about a place called the Sanctum of Dawn. It's a place filled with a great many treasures, including halls lined with seal stones gathered from every corner of Aden... and the last page of that damned contract.

• "So that's where the Priests of Dawn are guarding it?"

Yes, for now at least.

I need you to sneak into the Sanctum of Dawn, take the last page of the contract, and bring it back here to me. It won't be easy, but if Collin's notes are correct, then you should have all the skills you need to complete your mission.

• "You expect me to just waltz in there?"

Once you've been transformed, yes, exactly. They'll be so busy guarding their other entrances they won't think to check on one of their own walking through the front door, so to speak.

There was one slight problem--all the guards carry unique ID cards, without which they can't gain access to the Sanctum.

• "That's been resolved though?"

Yes, the old fashioned way too--bribery!

I've paid off one of the guards of the Sanctum, Captain John. He's fabricated a new card for you, and should be waiting for you right now in Gludio.

If you hurry he'll still be there by the time you arrive. Go!

What are you still doing here!!!

Hurry to the Gludio Village and find Master Guard of Dawn John.

He has the Identity Card of the Guards of the Dawn that I need.

You must not lose any of these items! Each of them have a purpose, each of them are a cog in a great machine.

Lose one, and our mission will fail.

Quickly, come here!

Do you have the page?

• "Yes, I think so. Here."

Yes! This is it! This is it!

Now let's look... no! It's written in ancient Elmoreden... damn those merchants! You know if they didn't have so many whispered secrets perhaps they wouldn't have to resort to using such an archaic language.

Well I can't read this, but I know a man who can. Iason Heine.

• "Who?"

He works now as the chief accountant for the Lords of Dawn in Heine, but has held many roles in his lifetime. He'll be able to decipher the words on this page, and point us in the right direction.

You must be tired though. Maybe you should take a short break, and see Iason when you are fully rested? I'd hate to see you run yourself ragged, especially after the work you have done.

We were stumbling along before, you see, but you've brought us forwards in leaps and bounds. My husband was right--you are remarkable.

Ah, you're our agent aren't you! Quickly, come here!

I'm afraid Agent Collin has been assigned elsewhere, and I've been tasked to complete your transformation in his stead. Now, the guards will be unsuspecting, but you must keep your distance, else your disguise will fail. Steer clear from all the guards, understand?

• "Yes."

Good.

Now you'll need to know the password for the Storage Room's Code Input device. It's 72.79.78.71. Do not, under any circumstances, forget it. Good men died getting that code; forgetting it would be a disservice to all that they sacrificed.

Now, what's the code?

• "72.79.78.71."

Perfect. Just don't forget it.

Now are you ready to be transformed?

• "Yes. Let's do this.""Not now."

There we go! Now you'll need to use the Light of Dawn teleporter here in the Temple to get to the Sanctum. Once there use your invisibility skills, move fast, and steer clear from the guards.

Oh, and the code! 72.79.78.71. 72.79.78.71. 72.79.78.71. DO NOT forget it!

(See High Priest Raymond again to clear the Sentry Morph after abandoning the quest.)

If not now, then when?

Time is running out, child. You must hurry!

Why are you still here? You need to steal the last page of that contract!

• "I need you to transform me again!""Remove the transformation magic."

There - now go! Hurry, and don't forget what I said! Use your invisibility skills, move fast, and steer clear from the guards!

Oh, and 72.79.78.71!

If you need to be transformed into a Sentry, just come and see me!

You made it back! Do you have the missing page?

• "Yes, I think so. Here."

Well, let me see it then!

Oh, after all that! I can make out the odd word, but this is written in Elmoreden. It's an ancient language conceived by merchants so as to hide their plans from outsiders. Clever....

It was rarely spoken then, but is almost unheard of now. In fact, I know of just one man that can help--Iason Heine.

• "Who?"

He works as an accountant for the Lords of Dawn in the city of Heine. He's had a long, long fascination with the Elmoreden language, and I'm sure he'll be thrilled to have this contract to decipher.

Here's a small token of our appreciation. Now if you could please take it to him for us....

Hurry to the city of Heine and find Iason Heine.

Ask him to translate the text for us, and perhaps he'll be able to help us along our path.

You want to stop helping us? At this stage?

But you're still in your disguise! Do you want that removed as well?

• "Yes, I do."

Well, there. If you change your mind you must come back straight away, all right?

Be safe, my friend. Einhasad's blessings go with you!

Here! You've found a bundle of papers that look like an old contract. You check each page carefully, and... yes! Here's the missing page!

• Take the page.

There's something more here... is that an Escape Scroll? Perhaps you could use it, even though you'll have no idea where it'll send you.

• Use the Scroll.

You have been teleported from the Sanctum.

You check through the bookshelf again, and find an Escape Scroll. It doesn't specify where you'll be sent to, but it should take you out of the Sanctum.

• Use the return scroll.

You've found a bundle of pages that look like an old contract!

Checking through the writing reveals both "Merchants of Mammon" and "Emperor Shunaiman". This must be it... but the last page is missing!

"Entry to this place is permitted only with the correct documents and with the Dawn's consent."

"Identity confirmed. Ready for teleportation?"

• "Affirmative."

"Confirmed. Teleportation initiated."

"Entry is only permitted to those carrying valid ID cards."

Кто Вы? Что Вам надо? На вид Вы ничем не примечательны... Если хотите меня о чем-то просить, то лучше идите отсюда.

Я не помогаю кому попало. Если Вы готовы заплатить за мою помощь, тогда другое дело... Но не думаю, что Вы платежеспособны.

• "Меня прислала Клаудия." "Мне необходимо Удостоверение Стражника Рассвета."

Что? Вас прислала Клаудия? Почему Вы сразу не сказали об этом?!

Клаудия говорила, что пришлет Вас, но я не думал, что Вы будете так молоды... Ха-ха!

Не принимайте близко к сердцу мои слова. Она мне неплохо заплатила, но выполнить ее просьбу было непросто.

Вот, возьмите Удостоверение Стражника Рассвета. Подойдите ближе. Боюсь, что увидит Жрец, стоящий неподалеку. Подойдите и возьмите это Удостоверение.

Я ведь отдал Вам Удостоверение... Что Вы еще хотите? Быстрее отнесите это Удостоверение Клаудии.

Я разговариваю со Жрецом Рассвета, не мешайте мне.

You have entered the code correctly.

The door opens.

The code is incorrect.

Try again.

The code was incorrect.

Please re-enter it.

Ah yes! I've heard about you from the good Lady Claudia! I understand the Order of the Dawn owes you a great deal.

I am Iason Heine, master accountant for the Lords of Dawn. I believe you have something for me?

• "Here. It's very delicate."

Of course it is! This document is 1500 years old, my child. The fact that it is still eligible at all is a miracle in its own right--most parchment this old is little more than dust and ash these days.

But this... this is remarkable! The one document binding Shunaiman and the Merchants together... in my very hands. A historian's dream....

• "Can you understand the text?"

Oh yes, yes I can. But I'm afraid my Elmoreden is rather out of practice, and the language was created to confuse outsiders. Pronounce one syllable differently and the whole sentence changes or loses meaning you see, and written Elmoreden is simply a phonetic interpretation of the spoken language....

I will need time to translate this page, my child. In the meantime I suggest you get some rest, or perhaps a drink or two. Haha--here's a small reward for you!

You hear what sounds like a human voice from within a shining blue globe.

Would you like to be teleported outside the Oracle?

• Teleport

You hear what seems to be a human voice emanate from the shining blue sphere.

"You have the permission of the Order of the Dawn. Transport to the exterior has been initiated..."

You hear what seems to be a human voice emanate from the shining blue sphere.

"If you have already received the permission of the Order of Dawn, you may access this at any time..."

Identity confirmed. Entrance permitted.

(The door makes a clicking noise.)

Error. ID does not match facial patterns. Error.

(The door remains shut.)

One shelf of the bookcase holds what appears to be a collection of contracts.

• Look closer.

You see a bundle of papers that appear to be a contract on one of the bookcase's shelves.

Carefully examine the papers.

Among them, you find what seems to be the final page of a contract between Emperor Shunaiman and Mammon.
