TOPIC: Deciphering the Relic Fragment Riddle

Matthew Hayward wrote: 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?

I believe that Odens Redux has 2 as well

I think It likely has only one, as Odin's Redux can only be run on normal or non-lethal

True - so there is one extra completion token for Gen Con.

In days of yore, quite long before
The humans came to plunder more
I think we all are in agreement this basically says "A long time ago"
it is interesting that the humans came to plunder not players adventures (too many syllables)

A relic forged from goods of trade
By ancient hands the thing was made
I think we have been assuming it is a relic token. A relic though could be anything old, especially since it was originally made by ancient hands. So possibly something we haven’t made but those before us made (maybe Jeff or his players before TD)...maybe

Alas, for now, the method’s gone
To craft this fine phenomenon
However it was made can be made this way currently. It is one thing though as it is a fine phenomenon.

‘Twas fractured by a hand of bronze
And now it’s just some polygons
Was the method of crafting it fractured or was the relic itself fractured? Bronze could be the complexion on the hand.

When days are long and three stars bright
Summer. 3 stars bright. Could be night time stars, could be famous people, could something in the shape of star.

The Dark Knight comes with special sight
Batman or a literal dark colored knight. A Dark Night. Special sight could refer to the Knight’s ability to see or sight it will bestow. It could be a pun of site as in a website.

For bringing forth the pieces all
If you connect this to a special site for bring forth the pieces all it sounds like it could be the transmuted page of the website to me as it is the page for showing required ingredients.

To eldest place before the fall
eldest place could be the Hyatt, could be carbondale. fall could be autumn, a waterfall, or someone’s defeat or failure as in downfall.

So gather now your goods abound
Get the stuff you need

And bring them where the start be found
The start of TD? the start of an adventure?

A myst’ry now that was foretold
Anyone remember a mystery that we were previously told about?

With time, that knowledge shall unfold
Stay tuned because we will get more clues/answers.

I wonder if this is referring to the Charm of Avarice?

Which previously was a RELIC but was replaced with the current LEGENDARY version. The RELIC was broken by a Bronze Hand (Legendary Token Color?)

No idea why he would be hands of bronze.
