You look closely at the clay surface, side A of the Disc. In the center is a rosette <h1><span class="phaistos">𐇵</span></h1> It is followed immediately by the symbol depicting a sick or elderly person <h1><span class="phaistos">𐇒</span></h1> You begin to read the story .. /*<<print setup.glyphs.PDglyph01.MomoName>> */ <img src="mapsprogress/reason.png"> Will you help the elder? If you remember the ancient folk tale called Jack and the Beanstalk, then you can use that story for hints to solve the following puzzle rooms. As you solve each puzzle room, you will see a new segment revealed in your map of the Disc. When you have uncovered the entire map and collected one or more of each of the magic items, you will have won, and you will have saved those you love. To solve the puzzles, for each picture in the row, choose the most fitting identification from the options. Then use that information to choose the correct scene interpretation. When you choose the right options for each picture, and for the scene as a whole, you solve the room and collect the magic items and gold. [[Who You Are |Motivation]]
