Guild Wars 2

Opening each chest in Scarlet’s layer rewards a page which combined form into a book. While interacting with this book/ audio log I found it quite curious that on one page a word had a Capital “D” in the middle of the sentence. On that same page she is referring to something she encountered which drove her to insanity. Is this a typo or might it be a reference to a Dragon?

I can’t be more specific because I’m afk at the moment but I’d like to hear the communities thoughts on this. Typo or intentional?

That D is for DONUT. It’s already been discovered by the community after days of discussion and silent contemplation.

Check the other logs for similar "errors".

Read the “errors” in order. You might need them as you explore her lair.

welcome to RPG puzzles.

UMAD bro? Oh, hang on, that’s not quite right.

Oh yes, I have realized that too. I was even about to create a thread about it… I have gotten 4 parts of the journal so far and ALL them have a “supposed” typo. All them have a uppercase letter in an odd position and I have been wondering if it was a typo or not.

Occurring in one sentence is a typo, 2 sentences is a coincidence or lack of attention.. Occurring on 4 sentences is really odd. Also, a friend of mine that has unlocked console said there is a typo like that in the message from the console too.

Here is how it appears:

EDIT: As said by Donari and I confirmed myself later, no message from console, it was from the 5th piece.

LOL—console code puzzle.

the code has a meaning. But i won’t spoil it. Try to figure it out

Hehe, of course. I just was wondering if that “typo” was really a typo or if there was some meaning, so I wouldn’t waste time studying a useless thing lol. I love puzzles like this btw.

Shadow, I think you’re slightly off in your spoiler. The final part is actually in the 5th piece. There is no console message, though there are very interesting things to see via the console.

Hmm ok. As I said I haven’t gotten the 5th piece yet, I couldn’t assemble the last cypher yet. What I posted there was what I was told by a guildie that told me they didn’t read the pieces but only the assembled journal, and they said it came from the text on the console. I’ll update it so soon I get the last piece.

And here we go… If it is like Donari said, the message part I mentioned is actually the 5th piece, it just forms a known name. Merely coincidence? Who knows. While reading another thread I stumbled upon a name and it recalled me of an blog article about Scarlet’s story. And which word did I find there? Yeah, check it yourself and compare with the uppercase letters I have posted above: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/short-story-what-scarlet-saw/

Trying so hard not to spoil it for you, but this is a known puzzle. Keep looking around the lair for stuff it might help you with.

Hehe, np. I still need to look into that place a bit more and I still need to get the last piece too. So yes, I haven’t looked deeper in this puzzle yet anyhow.

To answer the original question. Yes, it’s been noticed before.

Has anyone noticed that the book is not a back item?

Yes, it’s not a back item. It’s like that Majory’s Journal from the LS previous to Queen’s Jubilee I think.

Also, I feel silly now lol. I did it as that saying, “putting the cart ahead the oxes” lol. I wanted to figure out what those weird uppercase characters were even before getting the all pieces. I just have gotten them all and now I see it’s very obvious lol. Thanks Donari for trying to not spoil it, hehe. Just as I said in the previous post, I just couldn’t recall that name when I first read the pieces :P
