for those of you interested i'm adding all of the ancients pages not just the interesting ones.

 

[hide]

 

I have researched these accursed creastures of mithril more, the results are disturbing. Analysis leads me to believe that they were created by a higher power, what sort of creature could be so powerful?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

...metallic for missiles and magical energies...green for close combat and magic....both have their breath weapon for which they are infamous... next i will try reason and logic, may guthix watch over me.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Item 1 - mithril present in lare quantities as suspected. Item 2- guarded by vast dragons of the same metal. Recommendation - this has the potential to undermine our monopoly, suggest we keep the location secret.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

The combination of each of these prime ingredients will result in a fine pie, heightening the reactions of the lucky fellow who eats it. Sadly, most demand in my establishment is from scruffy fellows who make the place look untidy.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

... no one i know of has had access to an onyx amulet, the cost is just to immense. Enchanted charged dragonstone amulets appear to be able to increase the perceptions of the wearer, at least when mining rocks fro ore, they can increase the yield of preciouse gems.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

...because her coach was a pumpkin. we laughed so much i thought my sides would split. I think that too much dwarven ale may have clouded my view, since it no longer seems a fit jest...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

...is the stone here? ... was the stone here? ... will the stone be here? ... would that my sanity were firm enough that i knew what my questions meant. Then i might seek an answer.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

It read 'Laufata ki Glough Ki Ta Quir Priw Undo eso, Tolly, gnomo kar is Glough hamo sarko pro Arposandra Qua! - if only i had studied my languages more diligently

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

The baxtorian Falls are well worth investigating, in my opinion, since water leaves the lake above this area yet none appears to flow into it. What could be the source of this quantaty of water?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

My investigations show that the water temperature in the Baxtorian Falls area are substantially higher than might be expected given the local climate. The source of this heat will now be the focus of my studies.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Our best guess is that some sort of heat generation process is occurring in the tunnels we have scryed, though the denizens are proving quite a hindrance to our free travel. Research was never this dangerous for my teachers.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

...barred the magi loyal to the great lord zamorak from entering the tower, keeping the new-found power of runes to themsleves. But one brave soul gathered his followers and forced his way into the library...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

...and i have lost my way in this accursed dungeon. The air is foul and bugs are everywhere... a noise from down the tunnel. There was a bell on the floor. Grasping the bell i rang it will my might... it attacked me.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

missing 13 others if tip it is correct about there being 26

 

 

 

[/hide]

 

 

 

i've been at waterfiends alot latly for summoning and have been getting alot of ancient pages by rummaging the near by skeleton. only 14 out of 26 so far, if you find any more please post, and as i'm reading them i'm curiouse as to why i don't find any topics actually discussing them because there are some potential spoilers and sneak peaks in them. Its late right now so tomorrow i'll start getting some pics up of some of the pages but for now the most interesting page i've found reads like this.

 

...metallic for missiles and magical energies...green for close combat and magic....both have their breath weapon for which they are infamous... next i will try reason and logic, may guthix watch over me.

 

that is the most interesting one i have found and it implies that a third dragon may be put into the ancient caverns. however i've only got 1/2th of the total pages. so if anyone finds any other interesting pages could you post them and i'll post any more that I get myself. And what would a dragon that uses logic and reason be like? or is it even a dragon?

 

.

edit

 

found one more interesting page however its in gnome and the gnome english translator needs an update

 

it reads

 

It read 'Laufata ki Glough Ki Ta Quir Priw Undo eso, Tolly, gnomo kar is Glough hamo sarko pro Arposandra Qua! - if only i had studied my languages more diligently

 

from what is in the gnome-english translator it reads, (underlines are words i have translated)

 

eyeata ki Glough Ki the Guardian tree Undo eso, Tolly, gnomo no is Glough hamo begone to rocks city Qua

...metallic for missiles and magical energies...

 

Mith dragon.

 

green for close combat and magic....

 

Brutal green.

 

The part about reason and logic is probably an allusion to the examine of brutal green's, which says they're intelligent looking.

could be but it says that "next i will try reason and logic" after it mentions the greens. implying that he/she was working on a thrid creature.

The second one is definitely a gnome link. It mentions Glough, and the word 'gnomo', giving it the link to him and the gnome quests. Interestingly, it also mentions Arposandra. I can't remember the gnome series very much after doing them years ago, however isn't that the ancient Gnome city Glough is looking for? Could it possible be through the cavern? If anybody still has the gnomish translation book, it would be nice to have a translation.

'Laufata ki Glough Ki Ta Quir Priw Undo eso, Tolly, gnomo kar is Glough hamo sarko pro Arposandra Qua!

 

from what i can make of it it reads

 

underlines are words i have translated

 

eyeata ki Glough Ki the Guardian tree Undo eso, Tolly, gnomo no is Glough hamo begone to rocks city Qua

 

think they purposly forgot to update the gnome translation book when they came out with caverns?

You misinterpreted the dragon one, but that second one looks promising.

 

The real reason nobody knows much about these is that nobody really hunts for them. If you're killing mithril dragons, you're looking for a dfh, not some page of gibberish.

 

It would be great to put together a thread with all of the pages on it.

Ta Quir Priw is actually the Grand Tree instead of Guardian tree.

 

 

Also:

 

I have researched these accursed creatures of mithril ore, the results are disturbing. Analysis leads me to believe that they were created by a higher power, what sort of creature could be so powerful?

 

...metallic for missiles and magical energies...green for close combat and magic...both have their breath weapon for which they are infamous...next I will try reason and logic, may Guthix watch over me.

 

I must caution against offering the wrong gifts to the spirits inhabiting the world beyond this. They seem quick to anger if the offerer was in any way responsible for the offering's death.

 

Item 1 - mithril present in large quantities as suspected. Item 2 - guarded by vast dragons of the same metal. Recommendation - this has potential to undermine our monopoly, suggest we keep the location secret.

no one I know of has access to an onyx amulet, the cost is just too immense. Enchanted, charged dragonstone amulets appear to be able to increase the perceptions of the wearer, at least when mining rocks for ore, they can increase the yield of precious gems.

 

...because her coach was a pumpkin. We laughed so much I thought my sides would split. I think that too much dwarven ale may have clouded by views, since it no longer seems a fit jest...

 

In search of the incarnation of Scabaras, I probe the darkest recesses of the hidden world. If he likes in wait, I must be the one to reunite him with his fellow deities. What would befall us if he were forever isolated? His bitterness can only grow...

 

I am not sure anyone will ever read this, as I say my final farewells. If any find this pass on my regards to Annalise, if she still lives. I cannot see this being a place visited by those as doomed as I am.

 

If I ever get my hands on Otto he'll be in his grave. Sending me to this place to fester and die. 'See wonders' he says 'Impress the spirits' he says. The only way I'll be impressing the spirits is as one. While he sits out there living in luxury...

 

...is the stone here?...was the stone here?...will the stone be here?...would that my sanity were firm enough that I knew what my questions meant. Then I might seek an answer.

 

A momentary flash but I saw it! Hornless but the same deep crimson of its set-mates. A glorious thing to see, guarded by the creatures in the upper galleries. I must have it, I will have it!

 

It read 'Laufata ki Glough ki Ta Quir Priw Undo eso, Tolly, gnomo kar is Glough hamo sarko pro Arposandra Qua!' - If only I had studied my languages more diligently.

 

When Pukkamay first made toad crunchies, everyone thought he was mad. 'Chewy toads, in crunchies? It'll never work' they said - how wrong they were...

 

...I learned my lesson when I tried to take that Zamorakian wine. I really think the monks overreacted. I always thought they were supposed to be teetotal anyway.

 

The Baxtorian Falls are well worth investigating, in my opinion, since water leaves the lake above this area yet none appears to flow into it. What could be the source of this quantity of water?

 

My investigations show that water temperature in the Baxtorian Falls area are substantially higher than might be expected given the local climate. The source of this heat will now be the focus of my studies.

 

Our best guess is that some sort of heat generation process is occurring in the tunnels we have scryed, though the denizens are proving quite a hindrance to our free travel. Research was never this dangerous for my teachers.

 

Barakur has proved his worth, as we were forced to slay several dragons on our way to inner regions. The caves are clearly of artificial manufacture, though the excavations must have been thousands of years ago, to judge by the...

 

Our theory of artificial origins has been vindicated! We have discovered a sturdy door, which seems to be a similar age to the original excavations. I am sure that there is a magical or mechanical activity behind it, though it may be simply be a great rush of water.

 

The door resists all of our efforts to penetrate it, even the Fishing explosives which Derril suggested were tried with no success. There must be some way through which is linked to magic though perhaps all who know the secret are now long dead.

...created spheres of power to support those who should come to that dread place thereafter. But the well senses the light of these spheres, and will not...

 

...barred the magi loyal to the great lord Zamorak from entering the tower, keeping the new-found power of the runes to themselves. But one brave soul gathered his followers and forced his way into the library...

perhaps dragonkin were involved? A wild theory, I know, but look at the evidence

Dragonkin.

Stone of Jas.

The eyes of Glough of the Grand/Guardian tree, Foolish, no gnome but Glogh has ever gone to the stone city(Arposandra).

|_Possibly the spies/"cute" creatures. ................... |_capital letter. |_We already kow that.

Something to do with the waterfiends.

That one is more interesting than it looks. It's probably just a flier that went down there. To me, it hints that theses pages are not all that ancient. Maybe some sort of magic in the caverns are making them age more than they would outside. Could not have been deliberately aged like the bronze items we gave to simmons, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered ageing the flier as well. They can't really be ancient, otherwise how would this page get in there? Bob can't be that old.

High-alching that REALLY expensive item in my inventory looks more and more tempting with every beer I drink.

Perfect description of how you get the molisk thingy in the durgashon caves to attack.

The answer to your problem is simple: Bob's flier was only recently left there, while other pages are older. Nobody said all the pages were lost there at once or that they belonged to the same book.

Due to my epic stats, I have now started WGS (but I still hate spoilers).

It is also a perfect description of those caves.
