What's In The Box?

Within the Darkness of Mot, there are these two inconspicuous treasure chests just floating about. When you get close to them in just the wrong way, you're teleported towards the middle of the room.



What do you think is in them? My guess is that the one on the left contains the fixes for all the text errors in the game (like the Mother Keres mission where the mission entry pop-up says Knives of Vengeance), and the one on the right locks in the corrections for all the bad power icons in the game (like Shadow Slip, whose color palette is flagrantly mismatched from the rest of Umbral Aura).

As you know, there is no hope of either of those things being liberated from the Darkness of Mot.

One is the greatest treasure that can possibly be imagined. The other is the greatest terror mankind has ever known.






And the labels peeled off like.. aeons ago.

"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"

"The Most High has spoken, even with His own blood," Melancton replied. "Surely we know."

I agree, it was. That was a great movie.

I just ran it with a friend on his first time though and wanted to point these chests out, but didn't want to ruin the moment for him so kept my mouth shut. I thought about bringing it to the forums, but decided against it so folks who were 'caught up in the moment' didn't look for it as a potential flaw.

For me, it's kind of immersion breaking, honestly, unless there was something to be gained by seeing them and trying to access them, like blinkies that didn't blink, or something (they gave a 'clue' of some kind but only if you knew to look for them- they don't blink or make noise to indicate they exist).

There's also a tunnel you can access and look down on the scene from for a cool screen shot (found that with my buddy eariler this evening while he was reading the text) but otherwise nothing newsworthy.


"I play characters. I have to have a very strong visual appearance, backstory, name, etc. to get involved with a character, otherwise I simply won't play it very long. I'm not an RPer by any stretch of the imagination, but character concept is very important for me."- Back Alley Brawler
I couldn't agree more.

Possibly. I stopped playing that character long ago.


'I don't like the look of it at all,' said the King: 'however, it may kiss my hand if it likes.'
'I'd rather not,' the Cat remarked.
'Don't be impertinent,' said the King, 'and don't look at me like that!' He got behind Alice as he spoke.
'A cat may look at a king,' said Alice.

That would be a gelatinous cube. Or is that just wishful thinking?

Maybe one box has a dead cat and the other has a live caesium atom?

Or did I? (As long as we're belaboring the joke...)
