Re: Kogorous Riddle Thread and eworms Deduction Thread
I took that as a possibility. The Russian diamond being Oracle's Heart is not sure either.
Are the informations in the table enough to find the good answer?

I think the Ah Be Baba or whatever it was was s'posed to be a hint. Not entirely sure though.

About the riddle : I think Oracle's Heart and Crimson Rain are unlikely to be Pandora because their powers apparently has been used recently or continuously not just 10000 years ago, so that leaves leaves Palotiana . I may write more after I return to my laptop ..

Still waiting for an answer to my question and if already answered, please quote the answer. Thankssstimson wrote:One should remember that stories are just that stories. There is at the moment only the word of the teller whether or not something happened, or what power that has. It is always possible that the teller is lying for what ever reason. So I ask in this case, is every word that the teller says the truth? Or as I suspect is there more to this then the teller is telling?no one wrote:.Raifuujin wrote:

You ask for reason for not choosing the other two and I might have themsstimson wrote:Spoiler:
First the
The Oracle'e Heart was discovered in Greece and articles say that it enabled its discoverer, Ulrich Solomon, to see the future. However, was never reported having empowered anyone else in the same way. But there was another story about a diamond with similar powers that was stolen from a rich family in Russia about a century later. The family never reported it to the authorities, so whether they are the same or not is unknown.

First note the words" is said". Again Word of mouth and the Phone game. Also note the words "is thought" not is. There is some doubt there.
and then there is the "proof" being destroyed but for a small thing. And again word of mouth "said it was found in a cave. It is suggested it was found in England but it does not say it was found in England only that the group visited England. I sure KID was asking about if any copies were made. Remember not everything written down is true. Ever heard of fiction?

Palotiana has a Greek root to it?

Re: Kogorous Riddle Thread and eworms Deduction Thread
Though the writings describing its power were destroyed, there was something written that survived, which is what 'said' that it was in a cave. It was still written, not spoken. And yes, it was found in England. No connection to anything Greek. V:

Still the doubt is there. Always possible someone dreamed up the whole thing. Now it is time to open Say please? with a cherry on top. by the way, could the "writer" be confused and mistake the middle east for England? The 40 thieves takes place in the middle east. Could the "writer" have had England on the brain when they wrote their story?Raifuujin wrote: Though the writings describing its power were destroyed, there was something written that survived, which is what 'said' that it was in a cave.

Re: Kogorous Riddle Thread and eworms Deduction Thread
The label on the map "Ah Be Baba" is possibly a hint for the treasure hunters. Ah, be like Ali Baba. In this case it means you have to say "Open Sesame!", since access to the cave is password protected. Maybe those words suggested that some magic is involved and of course Kid is going with this one. (Were the writings destroyed in the Great Fire of London?)

Re: Kogorous Riddle Thread and eworms Deduction Thread
Not sure how to answer you, sstimson, because I think you're taking my words the wrong way. Assume that if I say there is/was hard evidence at some point, that what it said was true.
