I <3 these kind of things!

do we need to call in our link on the tree lock? I put all (erm, one) my thoughts on options for it in our thread but honestly have little idea as to how to get any farther with it.

hugs back :D

Hello! I have a question regarding the 5th puzzle. Does the Silver Archer and Golden Bowman shoot each other, or do they shoot me? (excuse my English xD)

Lots in the post, so please read all!

1. Mage posted a question above that should be given to everyone, so here goes:

Q:

A: Could go either way, BUT, you are looking for the option that gives you the best chance, all variables considered.

2. Bonus Contest Answers:

This is one of the many tales in the lore surrounding the founding King of Silla, but it appears in the same form in a number or other Eastern folktales, and also Greece! For the purpose of WS4. I'm calling it the "Lady Frieda" bonus, since the animal involved is, indeed, a weasel. Flounce that fluffy tail!

As to the object, the clue given here was subtler, being things measure out evenly. Most of you gave me a measuring device of some type, but only two fit the description of stretching out to fit the target. (One creative answer gave me the snakeskin stretching, but that assumed the critter was a snake (second most popular guess--weasel was the landslide favorite.)

Since it was a old folktale, the item wanted was a ruler, but I also accepted measuring tape, since that is a ruler of sorts, and often a gold color. Scores will be added to Chapter 5.

3. New Personal Wishlist Grab--Everyone Can Play!

You guys did such a great job naming Junu, I'm going to give you another go at naming an IMPORTANT character. No more than three suggestions per person and put the on this thread, please.

Name the Mysterious Woman that will first appear in Chapter 6:

Behold a Gisaeng to die for--maybe literally. Yes, she's lovely, but good? Evil? We shall see....wicked laugh

My undying thanks to for helping me bring her to life (what would I do without you, darling?), to for her generous loan of her private item, the Gisaeng Hanbok, and to my fabulous friend, , for the loan of the Graceful Kitsune Sakura Crown. You made her perfect!!

Now, if only I can get a , my joy will be complete.

She's lovely. :)

Undeniably yes, but how does this translate? We shall see?

Yea for coming through! Thank you for the loan---Happy now! She has the pipe!!!

: YAY!! The Lady Frieda Bonus!! I am super happy ( I got that part right. ) Ruler was my second guess, but I just didn't get a chance to turn it in. Still...We got some extra points!! Yay weasels!!

obligatory tail flouncing

(It is often reported in many ancient bestiaries and texts on animals that the weasel conceives in her ear and gives birth by her mouth, that she diligently and lovingly carries her babies from one safe place to another, and that she can resurrect her dead children by giving them rue. ) I, of course, did not conceive in my ear or give birth from my mouth, as some of you who were there for that happy event a few years ago can attest, so you know what I mean. No, Welly and I conceived in the normal fashion. And no, none of you were there for that happy occasion. )

I'm with Mage, I like Lila, or perhaps Li Li, ( beautiful one )

, thanks for another contest! Rhea Chloe Manes Kynthia Branwen

There's actually also a version with a snake, which one of my teammates found. I mean, it is a folktale so there's probably a dozen different versions. The part about the object turning into a double of the dead thing threw me off. Good thing I have clever and less literal teammates!

Good job, guys! And now for a new challenge -- name that pretty lady!

I'm tempted to suggest Inara because I'm watching Firefly and she looks like someone who can totally own who she is. Gisaeng/Kisaengs isn't quite a companion, but I'm sure companion can cover that territory too, yeah? And Hotaru (meaning firefly, yay puns) is out.

So the actual suggestions (and narrowing it down from the five I came up with was HARD):

Daiyu - Chinese name meaning black jade Katsumi - victorious beauty, also indicates self-control and poise Kotone - harp sound

- My name suggestions are:

1. Nakano (assumed to be of ancient, noble origin.)

2. Araya (powerful and complete)

3. Shiroma (one who lives)

My suggestions are Mitsuru, Saiyumi, or Chantilly.
