My Gnomish financial adviser says I have too much money and credits in
my mattress, so I have to get rid of some soon.

I have a little combination scavenger hunt/decathalon for all of ye.
There are three prizes.

First Prize: 100 Credits and 150,000 gold.
Second Prize: 25 Credits and 100,000 gold.
Third Prize: 10 Credits and 75,000 gold.

But to do it, in the words of a certain gnomish scholar, "You Have to
Earn it".

Get a pack, sack, or something similar and put all of the following in
it. Attention matters, I want ALL these items in their exact
amounts--for herbs/commidites bunch them up right!

A landscape of the area known as Skirting vast snowfields in the large
area of Mount Dio
A landscape of one of the levels (not the entrance level) of the iXilla
Asylum.
A sketch or painting of the statue of Lacostian in the Temple of
Elostian
A sketch or painting of the statue of Elcryion in the Temple of Elostian
A landscape of any of the Astrosphere except the four where the nexii of
the cities is.
A portrait of an astral critter except the types around ye nexii.
A portrait of Volucer.
6 Salt
6 Sugar
6 Sulfur
20 Wood
74 Pennyroyal
42 Kombu
5 sparkleberries
32 eggs
12 grain
1 Reishi
13 Cloth
12 Marble.
4 Snowballs
An Apron (any type)
The corpse of a rockeater
The corpse of a rabbit.
The corpse of a chicken.
The corpse of a cow.
3 Cave Fisher corpses (I hate those things)
Any enchanted ring, but it must only have 7 charges, so if ye get it
fully charged, use a few of them.
A potion of allheale in a diamond vial. Yes, it has to be a diamond
vial.
3 flowers of any type.
A bottle filled with clean water.


Get one of each of the following to follow you.

Avencha's Pilgrim.

Wandering Bard.

Wandering Scholar.

Cow.

These must appear with ye when ye come to claim ye prize.

Ye must make a public news post with a making fun of any of these boyos.

An active Demigod, An active Vernal Ascendant, or an active Elder God
(at ye own risk). Note, if ye already a Demigod or Ascendant ye written
victim must be an Elder. This can either be a limerick or a dozen's
insult. Read the footnote carefully.[1]

If ye don't know where there's a news area, go to Deepnight in the
Aetherplex and read the sign for directions at its fulcrux.

Once ye do all of this, ye must come to my location. I will be somewhere
on prime. I will have dropped a monolith sigil so no teleporting--ye
gotta walk. I will be on the ground, but there may be obsticles setup by
some helpers. (Don't worry, no demenses, maybe just some traps or
walls).

Ye will need to do the following once ye are there.

Shout my Motto in front of me--that will help the other boyos know who
got there first. Anybody who shouts it when they aren't in the same room
is disqualified (my discretion).

Doff ye hat to me--yes, ye must be wearing a hat (crown, help,
whatever), so if ye don't have one, buy or grab one.

Shake my hand.

Salute me.

This is a time sensitive hunt/decathalon, so get cracking if ye want to
win!
