Guide Gale & Ohms: Official Information Thread

We don't know where Gale is from. They could be all the way from Fruma.

 

we can assume this memento was given at the moment one of them died (aka gale gave ohms a memento the day she died - reason why gale's memento can't be found) ohms would have given this to her moments before he died but from what you can see in the inscription of his memento he was not near the place where she was buried since he asked for whoever found it to bring it to her grave, and that location was probably in that same old spear which description is now illegible

 

Can we assume that Ohms was killed by some outside entity? Surely he would have made his way back if he knew he was going to die. Maybe he wrote the inscription on the memento because he knew someone or something was coming after him?

 

we can asumme many things and this is one of them, he was a freelance scientist after all maybe he was being pursued by an organization and just had to leave everything behind because he didn't want to be killed for what he knew ( he is a golemancer after all and there are a couple quests in gavel that involve golems and failed attempts to make them)

 

We cannot assume. It is possible Ohms was smote by sickness, or a curse, or any other sort of accident which he could not foresee. If he knew he was going to die, he would have made an attempt to return to Gale's Tomb. But if he didn't know where the Tomb was, he wouldn't know where to go. It seems most probable to me that Ohms was not aware of the location of Gale's Tomb, or was aware, and wrote instructions to it on his Wish, but was corroded over time. We have so many questions, and I fear we won't be able to find definitive answer until the Tomb is Opened.

________________________________

We appear to be at variance. If we assume, then we could misinterpret pieces of lore, which could lead us on false trails. But then again, if we stagnate becaue we do not catalyze our search, the outcome would be worse. So maybe we should try and make logical guesses when hunting for Gale's Tomb, but when making lore-stories, we should only set in stone what is set in stone.

The Golem attempts that we quest with are mechanical golems, golems created from villagers being forced into these metal bodies, so cold, so bright. Golemancy implies a magical art, like the art of summoning true golems with magic. So the two subjects appear to be slightly different. But maybe in the distant past, things were different. Maybe Golemancy was well known, but faded over time. Or maybe back then, Ohms was the only Golemancer, and these mechanical organizations sought him so as to further their policies. Great questions to ask.

On a side note, WynnExcavation. It is a shadow organization from Gavel that is deeply ingrained in Magic and employs Iron Golems, as seen in Site D. Either they too feed the Iron Heart, or they found the secrets of Golemancy as well. An interesting path to walk down, and I think we'll have to wait for the main storyline to come out before any progress can be made down it.

 

@Selvut283
Did the map get updated with the patch last night?

 

What i tried to say was that maybe he didn't want his research to be stolen by a company (aka the guys that make the golems) as you can see there are a lot of failed attempts running around the factory meaning that the process is not perfect but a golem made by a golemancer would be, they probably wanted to make profit out of this as any other villager would

 

Is the map finally updated @Selvut283?

 

Seems not.

 

Sad

 

@Selvut283 just for future info, if we got into the tomb(I haven't) would it be cold and icy looking?

 

Perhaps.

The Giant spider is what Qira forces to lay all her Eggs/Brood for her. @Selvut283 explained this in the Shoutbox, I think about a week ago.

 

But what does it mean! >inb4 grave is on top of spider

 

Yeah, But theres something else to do with the spider.

cant go up there, barrier blocks ive tried to use mage teleport doesnt work.

he also said on an other thread, gales tomb isnt on there, or a teleporter to it.

 

Did I, now?

 

But Why does the spider does it? what does the spider want, that qira has?

 

You explained it to me somewhere. Back when I asked if the Giant Spider was Qira, and the blocky person we fight is just a physical form small enough for us to actually defeat.

 

Selvut said that we don't acknowledge the right shades of grey so does that mean instead of looking for stone grey we look for black or white? idk dont hurt me
