The holder of the mermaid scale was told.

He says the balcony that Bear stood on was described a little better this time than he remembers and maybe that is how we need to reach 2223.

Which makes me wonder if there will be a way to stay on this elevated portion that we are on now to reach the balcony.

Yes I know but it has no past room. Are you saying the room below this in the future has a room in the past and this room is 4853?

I think the vortex in the middle of this room used to be 4853 which had a future room that the future group traveled into the lab through (phase 1) and a past version which the past group traveled in through. The future group did mention seeing a bridge, but we in the past never had a description of a bridge.

Did Cerby run across this bridge? Lol

Did Cerby run across this bridge? Lol

Yup! That's how he traveled so many spaces so quickly and ended up south of us. This room is 3 standard rooms across. And that lines up with where I tracked him.

Guess we don't have to worry about breaking it then lol

Found it

From the queen, when they used the basin to check numbers the first time she shared this info:

Thomas: 4853 (No floor – vortex of swirling darkness instead of a floor. Blue and purple sparks, and purple flashes from time to time.)

That would be in the past, but would possibly indicate those two rooms are essentially gone.

lol I thought the same thing :D

If Peter is thrown into the vortex I swear...

And wait...that is a real portal but one no one in the lab can interact with?

It was a joke...

Wonder where that vortex leads.

Bridge is interesting. Having elevated rooms will make map making bit harder, even if it is hard now.

Are we sure 2223 is guardian room? I may have missed discussion about that. Why cant they travel between them? Perhaps they can walk to next room and travel from there? Seems odd to not be able to travel between rooms that have future and past versions.

3 phases is long enough to be out to miss shit. I was ill guys.

I need to be refreshed on the following:

- Why we think 2223* has a guardian in it
- Where Urk, Stonehard and the other group are right now. Or a rough guess.

Well, whilst I wait for an explanation on 2223*, I am going to bring something up about 2223 from the first time we came across it with the Stonehard.

This may have already been considered, but it was in 2223* that we encountered a monster who warned us about Willis and his friends. This monster was DV, who you guys have already been told about, am I right?

I think it is worth noting, if it hasn't already, that we encountered DV in a room we now suspect to be hiding a guardian.

If I recall correctly, we only encountered him again one other time, and that was during phase 10, in 4889*.

If this monsters appearance is a clue towards the location of guardians, we should keep an eye out for him. But I also wonder if he is related to the voice that Walton keeps hearing.

Before disappearing after our encounters with him, DV made an attempt to kill someone. Phase 5 encounter:

Phase 5

The creature leaped forward and then vanished in a flash of purple sparks as it almost cleaved Wilt in two.

Wilt was evil at the time. Phase 10 encounter:

Phase 10

Then it span around, raised the two daggers up high and went to strike Parker's neck. The daggers were a mere half inch away when the creature stopped abruptly and glared on. Parker breathed deeply. He could feel the coldness of them on him and couldn't move. The creature let out a tremendous shriek that echoed through the room and slowly backed away. And with a sudden flash of purple sparks, it vanished completely, leaving no trace of its existence behind.

The phase 10 one made it clear that it was targeting Parker. Wilt's might just have been flavour.

Just thought I should put all this out there in case it hasn't already.
