Ghaz's Plight

[utenan]

The druid rings/symbol seems odd, mixxit seems to have hinted that they are of some importance.... I have also noticed that when its just the lone piller, the dash is locatd on the right side of the druid ring symbol, but when the whole druid "ring" is there, the dash is on the left. There are about 4 lone pillars in nek forest, that's when I noticed it

I'm on the way out the door for work so I can't get a pic of this to post (perhaps someone could help me out and find or take one). I've been following this thread for a while and loving it, but now that we're down to posting all the DE related sightings of the center symbol, we've all forgotten the biggest one. Outside the entrance to Neriak itself!

I found a screenie of the refurbished zone, but I'd love to have someone get a screenie of the original for me.

I would just like to mention that the creators of EQ2 in some cases revamped the original lore, while in other cases simply didn't know what the original creators of EQ had in mind.

I'm of the mindset that adding anything from EQ to this thread is doing more to confuse us than help us.

ALso, I still think that the placement of many of these symbols were simply put there by the graphical designers using a bunch of images they were given to work with.

Yesy, in some cases they are purposeful, but more and more people are posting examples of locations where the symbols make no sense to be there at all. Unless of course the symbol does not mean what we think it does....

Just my 2 cents.

I understand why that symbol would be considered inny, but if this is the doomsday calendar written by the shissar, why would they have considered Inny at the center of it all? I would lean more towards that is the symbol of hatred, and hate is the undoing of creation. Or, it is really originally Veeshawn or Kerafym, those two I could relate with doomsday.

Don't know how accurate the EQ Lore Wiki is, but I thought it a bit funny while trying to brush up on some lore that someone changed the name of the Castle Mistmoore page to the "The Stupid McStupidhead's original castle."

Thank you, whoever you were.

That smile is making me curious on what he pointed out. Im guessing the symbol of hatred part.

After additional work with Cyrano and Mixxit, we have another revised version of the pictogram:

THINGS OF NOTE:
1. The center contains gods who created a race: Prexus and Kedge, Innoruuk and the Dark Elves, Brell and the Underfoot, Tunare and the Elves.
2. Joining these forces of creation at the center are two forces that wield the power to destroy: Aeteok and Enoxus, the swords used by an avatar of The Nameless to keep gods in check, and Mayong Mistmoore, who ascended to godhood after usurping Ayonae Ro.
3. The exterior contains events that have left a massive impression on the world of Norrath. The symbols tell of the first races, the rise of Bertoxxulous, the rise of Cazic Thule, the rise and/or fall of Rallos Zek (another force of creation: Ogres) the Marr Twins (another force of creation: Barbarians and Frogloks), the end of the Shissar Empire, the first brood of Dragons, and so on.

What can we determine from this information presented together as a single symbol? Why does Innoruuk, a resentful god that was late to the party, lie most prominently at the center?

because he hates them all? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
