What do y’all think will happen with the Fairy Water (description below), such as, where do you think Richter will put it and how do you think it will be used? I think there is some potential synergy with the current portal, maybe combine the magic core with the portal using the Fairy Water as the magical ingredient? Description: Sprinkle this upon the ground and a ring of toadstools will appear. Under the right conditions, this may offer transport to a random fey realm. The potential portal will also slowly increase the ambient magic of the surrounding lands
The common consensus is generally that it will go into the Dungeon, somewhere. The only problem I see with using it for core creation is that it might not fit the requirments since it's a potion. Like how the forge needed a metal and the cauldron needed an alchemical ingredient. I don't know what a portal's third item would entail but potions might be out. Regardless of what it does it might not fit because of what it is. Like this interaction in book 4 Spoiler: Resources vs ingredients {}
The dungeon is appealing for a few reasons, One the safety of anything coming through this potential portal beimg unable to get out into the village Two the potential for the dugeon to grow and gain new abilities/ monsters from the fey mana. Likely this would lead richter to gain a new power as well. The downside though may be that the dungeon could prevent the mushroom circle from experiencing the "right conditions". For example, if it has to be exposed to the light of a full moon. Or the dungeon simply consumes the mushrooms after they grow, then requires 1,000,000 fey energy points to be able to grow them in the future. Another popular theory is it would work in conjunction with the mini Stonehenge.
I think the Fairy Water will be used in the dungeon entrance. That way it will feed he dungeon the Ambient Fey energies directly. It could also be guarded with the other portal and the dungeons portal. If not it will go to the old stone Fey circle. It might be best served going to the stone circle. It could lead to the circle being repaired. Even better then that the Fey Energies would leak through in a prior location of those type energies. The area around the stone circle could possibly start to yield Fey ores. The dungeon would still absorb those Fey energies leaking through the circle it just might take longer for the dungeon to learn them.
I like the idea of seeing if the water would interact positively with the portal. Richter already knows what he wants to do with the core, though, so I doubt it’s with anything dungeon related. Personally I would have Roswan use it in a Room in the dungeon. Make sure its purpose is fulfilled (opening to a fey realm) to avoid some of the possible bad circumstances mentioned here and so that the dungeon gets to snack on the fey creatures.
It was after this book that he changed what a Labyrinth is, and what a dungeon is, and what a Dungeon is. Got to get those script details in the rock recovered.
Oooops. Kong really needs to have this scripted before he starts a series or at least have an idea about it all.
What do you think would happen if Richter drank the faery water? Maybe Richter will give birth to faeries through an exit. Spoiler: The Fae Poopy
That was why previously I thought that the portal and entrance were different. It makes sense until book 7 came out.
Not to sound blasphemous but I think it’s kind of like the trinity. The dungeon has an entrance and the dungeon is an entrance. The dungeon has multiple portals all of which work somewhat similar but the all serve distinctly different purposes.
Johan, you know it could have the exact opposite effect. Ricther might have a fairies flying around his tail trying to get in his ))
I’m not saying it’s a good idea but what would you get from adding a core to the stone hinge and using the fairy water as a third item? What would be the difference of using Ricthers dungeon purchased portal, the fey water and a magic core?
Maybe a portal that sucks out huge amounts of Fey Mana instead of just the minor seepage a mushroom ring would provide. Possibly an Untethered Portal
One interesting possibility of things coming from the faery world is the possibility of a fairy dragonling. Alma might need a dragon friend.
Yeah, I've asked for that before. Actually considering Faery Dragons are usually natural masters of Illusion Magic and Glamours it's a good chance that apart from being able to use Fay and Light Magic that they would have some ability in Thought/Mind Magic.
closer to severe poisioning. What if the portal would one inside of him and something would come through... Idea would be to give this to the claudron! we then coukd have a brake through. And be able to create a bunch of portals to any realm: celestial, abysal, demonic, frog dimension etc.. pretty sure: Richter has created a fey portal somewhere in the dungeon. So we no longer have any fey water.
It would be great if Ricther used the fey water in the dungeon. I could see some dungeon beast eating the mushrooms with Ambient fey mana from the mushrooms giving those monsters some temporary boon. Later as those beast are grazing around in the dungeon they spew forth a great gastric release of well fertilized fey mushroom spores. Those spores creating new fey portals through the dungeon. Meantime adventurer parties battling beast and monsters periodically cross these magical mushroom portals to the fey world adding to their losses. While some adventurers are fighting beast for their lives and livelihood others are transversed to the realm of the Fey. A party of five instantly becoming a party of four. How much more chaotic could it get when your shield moves in to block a blow then totally disappears. I still think the safest place for the fey water to be used is in the center of Ricthers four sided portcullis with his dungeon built portal. With that said I don’t think that materially that is the best location. With the fey circle inside Ricthers dungeon it will take longer for it to saturate his lands. The saturation of Ricthers lands with ambient fey mana is the key to fey metals appearing in his mine. The automatic appearance of any metal there makes it appear in the dungeon. Although with the fey mushroom circle placed in Ricthers domain it will take longer for the dungeon to learn how to create the fey energies. No matter where Ricther pours the fey water I would like to see it used in a more permanent fashion. I don’t know if the fairy water could be used with the stone circle as a third item with the core or not. If it could be used to make a permanent gate way to another realm it would be way more powerful then what could be a temporary come and go mushroom circle.
Safest place would be the fountain from the dungeon and go for the extra long way, but let’s face it, does he want that? Nooeee. Here is what he should do: Ask his companions (queen+Randy) and also HM Afterwards he can do something random/stupid and luck related just because it’s his idea
