I bow down to the expert's knowledge I'm not sure they've discovered marijuana in Westeros or Essos have they? They've certainly got some weird stuff. I think, much as I love the humble onion, I would prefer some nice fiery dragon peppers for staving off scurvy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sufficiently nit picking/insanely bored that I just googled to see if red peppers would do the job. Apparently they do. Personally i'd want oranges, lemons and limes.

But if you keep revisiting them,a few will suddenly make sense. Use those to build towards the others by trying to determine the theme. Or do what I do and forget about it, then log in late and hope the host hasn't moved on without your guesses. I have been staring at the clues and I still feel lost.

Dolorous Gabe Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 Your First Mate will bring the following to your attention shortly. Round Two Acronyms W B W P F D S E T T I Your First Mate will also reveal to you that he/she has stowed a secret passenger onboard. This is your new character assignment for the next round. TWO EXTRA CLUES FOR R2 ARE HIDDEN HERE Sundown ends this tutelar's infatuations Weary blasphemer's wayward path finds deliverance But do not forget your other passenger, the one delivered to you for R1. This character can still help you. Take out your map of Westeros and Essos, plot your course, find your destination. Make sure to let me know where you will dock your ship before the end of Passage One. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolorous Gabe Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 Quote ...all these words must mean something.... Ah but are words not merely wind? Or is it only spoken words that are wind, lost into the ether as soon as they are released? Here's a philosophical question: if words are wind, is a name mere wind? Does my board name qualify more as wind than my real life name? If so, why? In a previous game I used the theme characters who spoke words are wind on page. I expect an essay from each of you on my obsession with this saying. You can thank @rocksniffer for this joyous extracurricular activity I may or may not put you out of your misery on whether I have hidden hints to this theme (I may or may not have hidden hints to future themes). But not yet. Not yet. Carry on! Ride your wooden horses over the poison water, as the Dothraki would say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
