The Open Cave

From the CoD courtyard, if you look up above the large imager, you see a very tall mountain with a flashing red light. I am here today to tell you that the red light is not what you think it is and it is not on the top of that mountain. It is possible to climb that mountain from the top level accessible via the elevator. It took me about 20 minutes (real time) to get to the top. However, even before I reached the top, I could see that the mysterious red light is not on the mountain but in the "sky" far above the mountain. I think it is a UFO! Anyway, when I reached the top, I was met with a lighted 3d arrow pointing toward D'ni (I think).

I took KI photos of both the arrow and the mysterious red light. I can see both photos with my KI but I don't seem to be able to upload them to the courtyard imager. Also, I can only find one of them in the KIimages folder.

So, we have three mysteries here: 1) What is the flashing red light in the "sky," 2) What is the mysterious illuminated "glass" arrow, and 3) Is there a problem with KI photos, again?

The red light is supposed to be the location of the Great Zero (the same red blinking light you see at the beginning area of the Great Zero.) The arrow points to where the blue beam is currently facing, so if it is on then the arrow will be rotating. If the GZ blue beam is off, then it stays facing the zero line, the direction of the great stairs and the arch.

I went back up there and the arrow does not move. Prior to going up there, I verified that the GZ is operating and sending out the blue beam although I haven't seen it in CoD. If the altered physics and advanced KI commands worked here would I be able to go straight down and enter the GZ?

In the GZ, the flashing red light is physically attached to the machine. The red light I see above the mountain does not appear to be attached to anything.

This is puzzling!

Maybe there is a way to get to K'Veer from here?? LOL!

Me thinks calroger has 'WAY' to much time on his hands... :0)

If you've seen my "handle" in the cavern (RetiredMan), you might conclude that I DO have a lot of time on my hands.

I have just determined that the GZ energy beam is not visible in the CoD. However, it is visible most places outside CoD. If that big glass arrow on top of the mountain is supposed to rotate with the beam, there may be two related problems (bugs?). Since I don't know of a way to climb that mountain from outside of CoD, I have no way of confirming my hypothesis.

In the meantime, I am chasing the journey gates in the pods. I've gotten three of them...one to go.

If there is anything you folks would like me to test, I would be happy to do so.

If you want to reach the pink arrow in Ae'gura do: /float ; face the mountain at the plazza and do: /z 1500 (may be more) then you can reach it with /y xxx
