Oracle Story
There is a post on uo.com (https://uo.com/2022/03/23/spring-fever-live-on-all-shards/) that indicates we should check out the Town Cryer for more information, so let's do just that!
Let's go visit the Moonglow Zoo and see if we can discover anything more.
Looks like some new decorations and a new NPC are here!
Phoebe The Assistant Zoologist
Remember the rules about Oracles, be polite and try greeting them! (They usually respond to 'Greetings' or their name).
Oracle conversations can be progressed by repeating the CAPITAL words in the dialog.
GREETINGS
DISCOVERY
STRANGE
COLORS
This conversation has 2 paths, let's go with 'Studying' first.
STUDYING
EGGS
Looks like this is the end of this conversation path... or is it?
Let's go down the other path real quick:
KARL
Aha! We should go see Karl in Skara Brae.
However, it sounds like she would like to see one of these colorful eggs if we find one. Maybe we should try giving her one.
NOREEN
NIECE
NEW MAGINCIA
PLANT
Sounds like we have 2 people to see. Karl in Skara Brae, and Noreen in New Magincia.
Karl The Animal Trapper
Karl is found outside of the Ranger's Guild near Skara Brae (the Huntmaster's Building)
GREETINGS
RABBITS
SPECIMENS
EGGS
ANIMALS
SCOUTS
Looks like we have some Ranger Scouts to track down. Time to search North down the road!
Severina The Ranger Scout
Severina can be found far down the road North. Take the fork to the East towards Minoc and find her near the Yew Training Tower.
GREETINGS
SITUATION
MIGRATING
TRANCE
WIND
Well, you heard her! Let's go investigate Wind!
At this point we discover the champion spawn located in the mountains of Wind.
Let us deal with this spawn and then search to see if anyone near Wind knows what is going on.
Zeddicus The Mage of Wind
Zeddicus can be found just inside the entrance tunnel of Wind.
GREETINGS
CREATURES
MAGICAL
Looks like Zeddicus would like to see one of those eggs as well. Let's see what he thinks of it.
INFUSION
RELVINIAN
Ut oh, not Relvinian again. For those unaware, his old workshop is located within the Hedge Maze. Let's go investigate.
Within the Hege Maze, you will find an area littered with strange colored mushrooms.
In the center of the mass is a GIANT glowing mushroom.
Double-clicking on the mushroom gives us an item
Double-clicking the item gives us a clue!
Looks like we should try and find this mushroom expert somewhere in Ilshenar.
Leland the Expert Mycologist
What better of a place for a mushroom expert to be than the Mushroom Caves in Ilshenar?
GREETINGS
MUSHROOMS
Well, he asked! So let's show him the mushroom we found.
GLOW
LYCAEUM
He doesn't respond to LELAND, but if we read his text he indicates we should use that with Varioso at the Lycaeum.
Varioso, The Elder Mage
Varioso can be found at the Moonglow Lycaeum, way in the back studying in one of the rooms.
GREETINGS
Seems busy. Oh well...
Oh wait! Let's tell him Leland sent us!
LELAND
MUSHROOMS
Sounds like he wants to see the mushroom too, so let's show him.
INFECTION
EFFECTS
FEY
MONITOR
Varioso wants us to find Ranger Scouts that were dispatched to the Southern mountainous ranges on the mainland. Could that be Mount Dragonhame? Let's search around and see what we find.
Wolstan The Expert Tracker
Wolstan can be found in the forest just outside the entrance to Destard Dungeon.
GREETINGS
SAFE
UNUSUAL
DESTARD
ENTERED
Hmm, this is not good. Fey creatures entering Destard? Collusion with the Dragons? We better prepare ourselves as Wolstan asks. We may be called upon at any time!
