* Do NOT post long links that STRETCH the page.

NOTE: There is a seperate location your Quest items are stored at, the Quest Inventory. It is accessible from Neovia and presumably cannot be stolen/traded/etc.

1. Click on the burned down house (lower right part of Neovia), you will need to search the remains of the building for a Charred Locket. There seems to be 10 different places it can be hidden in (one is randomly determined for you). As you hover across the image, look at your status bar for the coordinates your cursor is at (at the end of the link, there is a ? followed by a pair of coordinates).

Chair: 67, 201
Fireplace: 80, 135
Couch End: 147, 218
Bookcase: 150, 115
Wall Crack: 175, 145
Sofa Couch: 186, 186
Broken Stair: 210, 130
Broken Boards: 235, 232
Pillow Spring: 308, 199
Table Leg: 364, 195

2. Once you have found the locket, (Don't forget to actually click the button to take it!) Gilly will be able to talk to the following people:
Leroy (Coconut Shy), Lyanka (Cork Gun), Harker (Bagatelle), Sydney (Scratch Cards).
Simply scroll down beyond the game activity to see the conversation. If you cannot see it and you have the Locket in your inventory (check) then try playing one of the games or clear your cache/refresh the pages.

Look for the following Key words in the conversation, and note the locations you found them:
A) "Why, certainly, little miss..."
B) "Amazing! I haven't seen such metalwork..."
C) "That piece of junk?"
D) "It looks familiar..."

And Revisit those places in the order listed! If done correctly, an extra piece of conversation by Gilly should come up:
"Well, it's clear no one around here is going to help me. I wonder if there might be someone deeper in the woods who could identify this locket. "

3. Return to Neovia and you can now access the Shack. Read the next chapter to the comic. (Note that you will no longer have the locket in your inventory) Return to the Shack and you will see a new option to flee. You are now in the Damp Cave. Click the "Go into the scary cave..." button, and.. you will be in a Damp Cave.

4. This cave consists of 9 rooms in a 3x3 pattern. Each cave is unique to each person! Note the items that you come across while going through the cave, you can pick up some of them!
** The Trunk and Table CANNOT be picked up
** The Lamp Post, Key, Chair, Broken Mirror, Rotten Food (from the Trash Pile) CAN.

Note that you can only pick up one thing at a time.

While you traverse the cave, there is something that will scary Gilly off. If you are scared off, you will flee to a random section of the cave (but nothing will have resetted) In order to avoid this you need to put down Rotten Food when you get the "Something seems to be following you..." message. The creature will eat it and slink away.

Go find a cave room that has a moonlit area (there may be more than one room) Place the items in the following spots:

* Garbage: 330, 325
* Mirror: 240, 330
* Lamppost: 240, 215
* Chair: 235, 160 (or alternatively try 225, 155)

When all 4 items are simultaneously in the moonlit room, you will be able to see the "monster" that is scaring you... It's Bruno!!

5. After reading the next comic and seeing a heartfelt reunion, you will now need to go searching in the woods. Return to the Shack to access the woods.

You will need to go through the woods by clicking through the windy trails. Find the two-headed Hissis first. You need to figure out who is lying, in order to help you, you need to be on the look out for a Stick. (You wont be able to find it until you find the Hissis first!) The stick will be on the bottom part of the screen and should be quite obvious. Once you find the stick, return to this Hissis.

Select the stick from your inventory (click the panel with the arrow in the bottom-right corner of your screen) and poke the Hissi. You wil now be able to take the path that they block, which will lead you to the High Woods. If you hit a section of the forest that has no paths, you've found a dead end. You will need to start over by going back to the Shack.

When in the High Woods, you now need to collect vines. There are 5 types of vines that can be picked up from the ground (like how you found the stick from before). When you open up the inventory (bottom right corner) you will see a tally of vines.

If you want to see the name of the vines, click the "View Quest Inventories" link. You can remove vines from your inventory by selecting them and then clicking on the ground.

Pick up all the vines you can find (should be 6 of each, 30 total) and go back to the clearing (a big opening without a path or tree in the middle of the screen) and try and click the opening (the "sky")

You will recieve a message as to whether or not what you have is enough. It seems that the values required are pretty random. Suggestable starting points are: 6-6-4-2-0, 3-4-4-2-0. Change the number of vines on hand and retry until you go to a cutscene with the cliff. Once there, you will get a helpful hint of what you need to do. The first link below demonstrates what these hints may mean.

Still stuck on the vines? Try these methods before posting!

Once you successfully do that, you will now be in The Deep Woods. You will now need to find 7 Ghost Meepits. Traverse through the Woods and try to click a Meepit. You can't get it! Now instead go play a game of Meepit Juice Break and get a score of AT LEAST 300 (complete level 2). Use the PPT guide for this game if you need help. Once you complete this, check in your QUEST INVENTORY for some Meepit Juice.

Return to the woods, select your Meepit Juice from the inventory tab and try and click on a Meepit. (If the juice isn't there, click on a Meepit and let it run away first.) It won't work, but Sophie will turn it into Ghost Meepit juice. Find another Meepit and try again... the Meepit will now stay with you. Continue for all 7 Meepits that are hidden in the woods. Now, find a room with a stone door and 7 lighted spots. Put the Meepits on the lighted spots and move them around until they all dance. A happy Meepit (hands up) indicates that its correct spot is one away from it.

To Be Continued...

Any mistakes/additions should be PM'd to a Moderator to get this up quick!

Daze, imagine the horror of someone doing that with a final combo of say, 2-4-6-4-2. Again congrats, you intuited luckily by first trying 6 then dropping 6 of a first or last kind. (Without trying to see if inbetween 5, 4, 3, 2 or 1 MIGHT be necessary.) I think some people have harder curves and that may be why it takes a little longer. If one has an easier time subtracting than adding, fine. But counting in ones rather than waging on a lucky guess might save more people more time. That is all I am saying.

EDIT: I'm supposed to edit and say something like "first post, woot!" ... right? So, woot! Sorry I didn't want to but never been able to. Anyway, past my bedtime, g'nite y'all.

Congrats on finding the right spot finally psyco.

I can see why a lot of people are mapping. You could go in circles for a long time. I ended mapping a little bit of the forest with the vines (circles drive me crazy). I know my mom was getting irritated, she called me from her office all annoyed because she couldn't stop doing the pattern thing either.

I personally just random click and it usually works. If I start to get a headache from banging my head into a wall out of frusteration then I map lol.

That is what I tried to say earlier. If you are going in circles, that is you noticing a HABIT of clicking. Not completely random. You are subconsciously remembering and learning, and taking familiar paths. If you feel 'disoriented' and have the inclination to 'map' you should just click on a path that you wouldn't 'normally' (subconsciously, habitually) take. It most often opens up whole new fields of vision and scenario.

As you and I have both said, I believe there are many combinations of vines possible for each user.

My method relies on getting the first 6 right, then adding to it. If none of the vines had 6, I would have to go back and try 5 vines and work again left to right.

That would definately take longer, but it would still work.

I don't know of anyone that the method hasn't worked for, so maybe the way you do it contributes to the amount of vines you need?

As in - if you start with 6 - you are going to get at least the first or second lots of vines as correct.

I hadn't thought of the idea of it not working - I wish I could test it out more.

Sooo I finally caught up...
But after the sppoky tree thing...
I DIDN'T get "to be continued."
I got CONTINUE, which took me to this chapter.
I want a "To Be Continued" to elt myself know that I'm really done for the night!

@ myself: Or the chapter will say it. I've only stared a few times now at it.
*headdesk* Yup, I think that's my sign that I'm done for the night and should GO TO BED.

You can go to bed, knowing you are done for the night. The continue only takes you to chapter 4 .

When the next step comes out, I presume we leave from Ilere's house and find the "denizens" of the woods.

Yes, Daze I am with you there. It is such simple 'abacus' math to me but I admit my brain can't even put it into an Excel sheet, much less program. I am just curious if (well numerically I know it works either way, but I usually prefer your visual cues, I think we found a good combo) some people need NO Icky vines and are inclined to start from 6 and working left to right, that going from zero up MAY be more helpful. I so wish I could do this on a side or test account with the worst curve possible just to test my math. Even if it is 'backwards' for a minority, most people count better forward than back, sort of like trying to recite your own alphabet backward, harder that way. But I do admire your method.

EDIT: Does it have anything to do with you being in the Southern Hemisphere and your water draining "backwards" maybe?

I finished the vines part yesterday. I just logged on now and I went to check if I could move on and I got "contnue" as well. It took me to the 4th comic.

lol Anjuna - I think my brain does.

I think the point Psyco was trying to get to was that for some people they need the visual aide to help them break that 'habit'. Or just flat out to realize that they haven't clicked on a particular path before.

Glad you can laugh at my joke. I love Australia and long to live there permanently some day (though I hear that is a feat to get in). I am still laughing and so sorry to comment off topic, but I DID PM so mods, don't smite me please. Just maintaining the friendly community of the forum.

If you start again do you keep your meepits? And are there any dead ends?

For the wanderings through the woods, I didn't map at all and just did a lot of clicking and was through it in about 7-10 minutes. It's really not as hard as it seems...crossing my fingers for all y'all.

PS
twinmommy987, I love your siggy.

Is mapping even possible?
