Where have the turtles gone?

It's been many years now and the wild dragon turtles have not reproduced. I've concluded that in order for turtles to give birth, a girl and a boy has to meet each other and all that fun stuff, then the girl will become pregnant. Anyway, could a Divine please add more turtles to the sea? The seawolves will always win if there is only one turtle around. And also make two turtles continously 're-pop', like one male and one female, so the population will never be eliminated. In this battle between turtles and seawolves, seawolves can always be created, because you just need dolphins, and dolphins can always be 'made' because you just need seawolves...that's an unending cycle. But turtles are endangered, because if they're killed they can't be brought back. So...yeah. fishing1.gif

Uhh... uhh.. you don't know anything abou the Inner Sea, Ladantine, the Sea Hag, the Kelpies, or anything at all.

Just be glad there will always be ONE turtle.

Oh Great Master of Knowledge, all bow before your Wisdom! Wait, that's not wisdom, maybe that's only an inflated ego.

Killing sharks and giving them to the sea hag makes them turtles.

What? That makes no sense whatsoever. Do you mean seawolves? Seawolves become dolphins. Use some common sense and logic, don't speak too soon especially if -you- don't know what's going on. And about Ladantine, me and a few others sunk his ship within two days of its summoning, gee, how did we do that without knowing anything at all?

Uhmmm... no....

FYI: The opposite version of the tainting of the dolphins by Ladantine to seawolves is:

Kill sharks, feed them to turtle(s) which makes them go into heat. They will then follow you, lead them to the warm sand of Isle of Light where they will lay eggs to hatch into more turtles.

Tada! This is your first lesson in turtle reproduction.
Unknown2005-01-30 02:19:14
Wait, what do you mean make them "go into heat"? Also, we've been feeding hundreds of sharks to the same turtle over the years, and nothing has been happening it.
Aebrin2005-01-30 02:21:40
Unfortunately they reset. So it has to be lots of sharks in a short period of time. Digestion maybe?

You weren't there when we raised Princes Marinyth (or however you spell it). We had teams of people tracking turtle(s) and teams of people sharking. They follow you alright.
Unknown2005-01-30 02:25:46
I remember the turtle was fed about 30 sharks in one day once...well, if all you've said is completely right then I guess maybe the turtle's are just 'miswoven'.
Estarra2005-01-30 16:16:56
Gah! You people are crazy! Feeding sharks to dragon turtles doesn't make them go into "heat" or cause them to get pregnant. I've never heard such a ridiculous thing in my life. Feeding a zillion sharks to a non-pregnant dragon turtle will merely get you a fat dragon turtle. doh.gif

Estarra just ruined the gravy train for the one dragonturtle that was in drag.

Heh.

Listen to what the mobs tell you, people. The shark is like a female version of viagra for dragon turtles. Which are all strangely female and A-sexual.

And, while a ton of people know this crap, and it's basically common knowledge, it's quest stuff, people. Leave it as such? ohmy.gif

No idea.
Aebrin2005-01-30 22:57:22
So... if we want to get the ball rolling, so to speak, we feed the female turtles lots of sharks and then fence them off with Aris and ring a curtain around the entire thing?
Erion2005-01-31 01:20:07
Feed them a few turtles, and come back later, a few more, come back later. When gold, take them to the Isle of Light. Now there's two. Rinse, repeat.
