The Harmony of the Dancing Symbols
After successfully hanging the enchanted laundry, the path leads you further into a tiny, enchanted grove. A gentle breeze carries faint voices toward you—like a soft melody dancing between the trees.
Curious, you follow the sounds of instruments until you reach a clearing shimmering in golden sunlight. But you’re not alone. Tiny magical beings—so small they could hide behind daisies—whirl cheerfully around an old stone tablet. The scene would be delightful, if it weren’t for the utter chaos.
A creeping unease stirs in your chest. Cobol’s agents could be anywhere, ready to smother any hint of magic. Your thoughts drift to Bastet and Gart—there’s no time to lose focus now.
Before you can think too long, one of the creatures timidly steps forward. It looks like a small gemstone with legs, glimmering hesitantly.
“You there!” it calls out, with a voice far too big for its tiny frame. “We’re all out of order! The magic of the tablet only works when we stand in the right sequence. Without order, we lose our power. Please help us! Tharnok mustn’t see us like this.”
Assign the Creatures an Order
Nugget steps forward and excitedly tells you about his love for open brackets. Ollie, on the other hand, stands for entirely different values. Uno is, as always, in his element—he tells you something excitedly, but very selectively. Ruby adores semicolons, while Fluffy prefers dots—ideally, two of them at once.
Mimi just wants to wrap things up as quickly as possible. And Iggy? Iggy is a mystery unto himself: ever-changing, ever-adapting, always in flux.
It’s clear: they must be placed in the correct order to activate the tablet’s magic.
But time is short, and the enchantment is fading fast.
