: World knots are distributed throught the myth world. The
: great cities (all except muirthemne)have them, or
: rather, are built around them, and yet no one knows of
: their origin.
: The smiths of muirthemne (or at least thier ancestors)
: could be the ones who made them. In the myth 2 level,
: "beyond the cloudspine" the dwarves in the
: party state that they know how to fix a broken world
: knot. So its plausable that they could have built them
: in the first place. Notice how the world knot works
: again as soon as the pieces of unknown stone are put
: together. This proves that no arcane power is set upon
: world knots, but rather the stone used to make the
: world knots are probably magic to begin with.
: In any case, these knots were made a LONG time ago.
: Ri'hanon, the ancient trow city, was created, but it
: was next to a world know (the one alric used in
: "pools of iron".this throws off the dwarven
: theory (as they are a "new race") Could the
: trow, or perhaps their underlings, created them to
: serve as a faster transportation system than going
: through the then ermine? though this is plausable,
: there is more that thickens the plot...
: In myth 3 screenshots, there are several screens of
: stonehenge-like constructions. could those have been
: ancient world knots? the ground near the world knots
: in "beyond the cloudspine" are fairly
: consistent with that of the constructions in myth.
: At any rate, i hope myth3 clears the world knot mystery
: up, because i am stumped :\
Well, I think the Trow are far too large to contruct those things. There are the tiny mystic circles on the sided of the purple poles (I think.) They are half the height of a Trow if I remember correctly. But I agree that it might have come from that time. So my theory is that the OGRHE (spelling?) built it. They were about the right size (interestingly enough, I used to think of them as green cyclopses about 2/3 the size of a trow, but we now know they look like a cross between a maul and an large D&D orc of some type) to build them. I beleive that the Trow perhaps forced their slaves into building world knots; the trow knew how to build them, but I guess did not want to. So instead they made the Oghre do it. Which is why the pylons are substantially smaller than most Trow consrutcions.
