SPOILER: Jade Urn Pavilion Discussion

[Planturous]

SPOILER ALERT.... DO NOT READ FURTHER UNLESS YOU WANT A SECRET SPOILED... THIS IS TO DISCUSS A SECRET YOU HAVE ALREADY DISCOVERED AND WANT TO DISCUSS WITH THE COMMUNITY FURTHER..

..

..

Ok with that out of the Way I want to start this thread to discuss what is known and theories about the Jade Urn Pavilion...

Here is What I know:

Jade Urn Pavilion seems to have a connection with the "Moon King" or is a temple dedicated to the "Moon King"... This seems to be the case since the same statue of the crouched man can be found in Jade Urn Pavilion as well as Moon King's Rest In Jade Urn... What the exact connection is has yet to be discovered

The Only 2 Knot messages I have found mentioning anything in regards to Jade Urn Pavilion was found in said Pavilion:

"Day Four... It's been raining for days... There is no dry firewood... the rumors appear to be true about these ruins... I hear the heavy pats of creatures circling my camp at night... invisible... yet present. Are they the servants of the heart-twisted enchanter whose abode these ruins once were? will i live to find out? I have decided to stay just one more night... There are still some stones I have not cleared from moss. The Moonstone Must be Close. I know it."

the water in this well tastes a bit funny, boil before drinking traveler.

... We can infer a few things: 1) Both night and rain seem important for the secrets regarding the temple... 2) the 'creatures' are 'invisible'... Given that they may be ghosts it may serve well for an attempt with the Align knot when it is night and raining in the temple... 3) there is a rumored 'moonstone' in the temple somwhere, which may have a connection with the moonking...


Alright, now there are 4 statues in the sky mirror section of the pavilion that can be activated independently with 2 mechanics each. I have been unable to find a server that has all 4 available to 'unload' as the statues call it... If anyone has been able to unload all 4 at the same time (I assume I haven't been able to get all 4 at once due to the game being buggy at the moment... But maybe there is a condition..) I would be curious to know if anything special happened...

IT is worth noting too that these 4 statues seem to be facing a large mossy statue in the shape of a goblet in the center of the Sky Mirror... What this has to do with anything I am unsure of...

The only npc I have seen wandering the Pavilion is a Rain-Stone Finder.. He mentions how he is looking for Rain-Stone and is well trained to do so and that you may find some through dumb luck if you look hard enough.. I have also gotten 1 piece of Rain Stone from one of the ancient debris in the area.

There are a bunch of deer that wander around the pavilion at times as well as some 'Ord?' (I think that is what they are called).. The little nature sprites that look like walking bushes..

In Conclusion: There appears to be some hidden mystery in the pavilion connected to the larger Jade Urn... I am open to any and all discussions,hints, and even spoilers regarding where to go from here with the information I have laid out..

Happy Travels Dandelions!

if you look at the wall on the right of the 4 statue, there is someone or somthing stuck in the wall, i had a bug and i saw a green circle, like the one you have when you try to select peoples. it confirm that there is definitelly something, and i saw it multiple times, always at the same spot.

interesting. Yeah I see what you are talking about to the right of the statues in that forested area... Hmm...

The rattled adventurer in the teahouses who talks to you about the Temple's location tells you to make sure you don't go alone.

I also think I read somewhere that some endeavours are meant to be triggered not through talents but by the number of people present. I don't know if any of those have been implemented in the game or it was just an idea being thrown about but I've wondered if the rattled adventurer's text is an instruction rather than warning about danger. I've only ever gone alone and found nothing of much interest.

[Larc1n]

ye, maybe that also.

Yeah I’ve gone in a group before… I haven’t gone in a group when it was raining at night. I have done all the endeavors there but the altar.. maybe the dormant altar needs to be triggered???

A real mystery at the moment…

If anyone has any updates let me know! Or if anyone is on the US East server and has the show ghost spell that would be super useful, we can go and check it out and test some things

Since the knot, mentioned that there is no dry firewood and a camp, maybe there was still a campfire? You don't need only wood for making fire but keeping it alive. Did anyone try already resting with a fire there (maybe best where the knot is found)?

Also i had in jade urn an encaunter in the cave with the similar mechanic-statue (which never gave me anything and nothing happened )

There was a group of (can't remember what they where called) human "followers"+human "priest" in the water and a wolf 'she wolf' and a wolf 'he wolf' in the cave on the land part.
They told me to be silent and only the "priest" is allowed to talk. The wolfs both gave me a buff (i think it was +1 force and +1 ward).

Since the knot mentions a 'moonstone', maybe it has something to do with wolfs? Would also fit the not going alone part, since wolfs are pack animals. Didn't find anything wolf-realated inside thou.

I just come across a dormant alter that turned me into a deer, right near the Jade Urn Pavilion .
Sadly I interacted with a reagent before getting into the place so I lost the spell.

Is this a key? As there are plenty of deer in there.

In day time - no rain.

This is the best I could do with Windows 10 Capture to grab the dialogue from the
SE statue.

If anyone can do better please try

EDIT: Tried to make this image clearer

2nd EDIT: I think the last part of dialogue is most important here it reads The Machinist (something) I am named and I unveiled this sculpture II rains before the day

[Lionel Scar]

This one is a bit clearer.

Capture of King Moon's Pass Statue dialogue

In day time - no rain

EDIT: Last part of dialogue reads The Lawmaker Karhak is my name and I raised this sculpture in the morning of the day

I assume then, that the secret/quest/area is bugged , if we can't even read the messages of the mechanisms propper.

Yep, I'm just trying to figure out what the hell is going on before putting in a report.

The worst thing is the reporting system uses the P button in-game to do a screen shot to report issues in-game and you can not screen shot the dialogue in-game because it is literally a split second before it disappears

[Nightview]

Oh woah! I ended up at the Pavilion last night and I kept wondering if the area might be bugged/unfinished, so this explains a lot!
Also, I think I "saw" one of those invisible creatures? Maybe it was a ghost but it was not foggy but proper invisible. Gave me a fair scare ngl ^^'

In daytime NW Statue dialogue

I checked the statues in the night time and none of them seemed to be active and the one in Moon King's Pass was unloaded so no mechanism to work with.

There does however seem to be a reset because the above statue proced once daylight hit.

Also this was a 'Separated Machine Part' mechanism rather than the statue itself, I've seem this statue actually be interact able so maybe there are more dialogues then I first thought.

EDIT: The last part of the dialogue reads The architect Haruk is my name and I finished this sculpture I rain before the day

[Lionel Scar]

In daytime NE statue Dialogue

https://imgur.com/o9hEEYG

I interacted with the statue itself, however, before logging these dialogues I had interacted with a Separated Machine Part here before some days ago.

The last part of the dialogue reads The Administrator N i b u <--(name for some reason has a profanity filter) I am named and I made this sculpture 3 rains before the day

EDIT: A night time picture so full dialogue is seen more clearly
