TOPIC: Deciphering the Relic Fragment Riddle

So hey, before everyone got a bunch of treasure, the FIRST treasure ENHANCEr was HORN OF PLENTY.

Horn of Plenty confirmed for turning in 6 relic fragments. Sell me all of your stockpiled horns before the bottom drops out.

So I connected the dots on Druegar's image. Anyone else think it kind of looks like the constellation cancer

So what your saying is that you stumbled upon the HAND OF LAZ. The infinity stone type gauntlet that Laz uses in the Transmute room to snap away our handed in relics?

The poem says before the humans came to plunder. So We could be the humans and this is something unique from a time before true dungeon?

All of these theories lead me to believe it will lead back to Snoke.

I'll just collect these so I am ready and sit back to have a drink with Jake Skywalker until more is revealed.

That definitely looks bronze to me as well.

The image title is also very interesting

Assuming this is from 2010? Does anyone know what puzzle this hand was related to? It's a longshot but MAYBE there's something about this puzzle that might give info?

If we can track down the module for that puzzle...

Probably this is irrelevant, but I was looking at the QTR - and there are 9 Completion Tokens listed for Gen Con.

Isn't that 2 too many? 2 for E1, 2 for E2, 2 for E3, 1 for Grind?

What are the other 2 for? Special completion tokens for the GT run?

There was a hallway which had this giant hand at one end, and the other end was a wall of knives (/daggers). As soon as the players entered, the dagger wall slowly began to move forward, trapping the players in a shrinking room of inevitable death. The way to solve the puzzle was to notice certain daggers actually stuck out of the dagger wall further than others, and then match those "outies" to lights on the bronze hand. Pressing the correct lights (which were not teal, but a variety of colors) would cause the wall to reset back to the other side of the room.

I think it's a cool pic, but more likely coincidence than a hand which shattered a Relic / recipe.

As a side-note, it's been discovered & posted on the other relic-solving thread that Druegar's earlier post (the suggesting naming conventions for relic fragments) was also marked with teal dots, spelling out

So, two thoughts

First (haha): that this is what Druegar meant by "First" ... to go check out & enhance his first .jpg ...especially since his remake of the names (Pizza=Ann, Texas=Vera, etc) used the same teal dot method as the "Enhance" clue did.

Second: That our Dark Knight is in fact a dark NIGHT. An eclipse night. (Lunar eclipse, since solar eclipse would be a dark day). And eclipse would indeed be a special sight (a lot more special than merely a New Moon, which is dark, but nothing to look at.)

Jeff 321 says the next lunar eclipse is July 16, which feels a bit early for a Recipe reveal.
Are there other lunar eclipses which line up with TD Cons?

Don't forget 1 for the sealed pack dungeon. Though they may have accidentally forgot that there is only 1 and not 2 for that one?
