One of those was me I believe. Edit: deleted something.
Midday 8
One piece of good news developed as the day went on, even as the group was ever on the lookout for more monsters or traitors from within. They'd appeared to finally track where Ngoogol had doubled back towards, a vast network of Mountain Caves, and he appeared to be slowing down his escape. Still, all the Elemental creatures he commanded still put them at unease.
The disrepair and general chaos out here in this wilderness, where there was hardly one well-tread path and now they were off of it, led to other dicussion. While they were preparing magic of course, the group recalled the story of a famous merchant who always seemed to sell his wares everywhere ahead of his competitors when the latest fads hit.

Hmm, no response to the puzzle questions, or solving activity in the open.
It should be easy once there is an opportunity to put ye olde brain cells into gear, but I'm otherwise occupied by a 4-letter word that starts with 'w'.

I'm waiting on the clarification of the number of caravans.

I wish Catharsis was still alive, he'd have drawn a map for us to make things clearer. If someone else could it'd probably making solving easy.

I have never heard of such a thing in my 300 plus years. One time I met a man named McTiffany or McDougal or something of that nature. He was a good man and ambitious too. He had big plans to trade for tubers from some red haired drunken savages across the straits. He would dice these tubers and sear them in boiling lard, wrap them in paper and serve them with mayonnaise and vinegar.
Anyway not long after I met him he fell in with a bad crowd. I believe he met some witches who gave him an augurey that he would be king. Ever ambitious he set out accomplish this full of certainty that the few omens that would signal his reign at an end could never come to pass he fell into darkness. Long story short, his wife went insane and his friends left him alienated and alone, and he died after a short reign, every omen the witches promised had come true. Moral of the story is don't try to finagle an irishman out of his potatoes or you will die.

A touching story - It reminds me of my family.
What a wonderful family they were...

Two things I notice from the OP,
The Earth Elemental isn't fully defeated, but in a critical state. Also, the water Elemental may be immune to magic, so I'm guessing our puzzle strength and magical power ups won't work.

Apologies for not being able to solve the puzzle today, Earthling, I was on the road hopping from Ireland to England and back again over the past 36 hours.
More Activity needed from everyone, might I add. Especially those who are just coming in and agreeing with the lynch. You are the guys who are more than likely Elvsh and Ceroz, who themselves haven't been questioned half enough. I'm not saying they are necessarily bad guys, but I don't like that some people have been able to hide behind their character name. This should be like any other game, in terms of activity. In any other game, you'd probably be WOG'd. (Although to be fair, you're posting, just not saying much else.)

I'm working on the puzzle. I drew a map but that doesn't seem to help. I think there are 3 caravans that leave the mountains, make 8 stops and end up in Tyrune. I'm trying to work it out through exhaustion because I'm not adept enough at math.

Work is over, family had dinner, time to work on puzzle. Expect ~15 minutes. Hopefully our fearless GM isn't in the middle of writing an update.
