So ... after deciphering the scroll ... I wonder if we need to decipher more scrolls, somehow.

Possible theories:

1) Have to read the scrolls again ... but you will decipher the 2nd to last one.

2) Read them in reverse ... to decipher all of them.

3) Use the knowledge you've learned to do more than just read/understand the library scroll in the temple.

4) Use the crystal in a different order to read the scrolls.

many other possibilities...

I have seen-ah the light-tah!

My Nuria symbol is Kar, and my crystal sequence was
The colors on the wall are red, red, yellow, yellow, blue, red, blue, blue...and then it gets hard to see! I can't tell if it's one blank, or two. This is followed by yellow, yellow, blue...and a large gap that might be two blanks, or three. Then red. I'm not sure red is the last one, or whether "blank" is the last one, because my housemate Mirielfox definately got a blank as her last one (she has been graciously staying off the computer so I could try to get the light). I will post a screenie; meanwhile, anybody know a way to tell if a blank is one, two, or three in a row?
Life complicates for SpaceElf1. (sigh)

Look at the source code for that page ... it lists the order of the colors. all 16 of them.

[sirclucky]

Um yeah... how do you dicipher the scrolls?

[TopsyTourny]

So am I to assume that it doesn't matter what "size" scroll (A-E) I read?

[neomania]

i accidentally read the wrong color i was just so happy to find my symbol. gosh darn it. do i just start again or do i have to see light again or what?

Oohh...and the x's are blanks, right? Bless you X&G!

So the sequence is rryybrbbxyybxxrx, in case anyone is keeping track.

[Katdragon]

Yeah...can someone please do a step by step detailed explination of what one is to do after seeing the lights...I am still running on stupid from staying up so late and refreshing constantly...

I matched up my tablet and color battern

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16

1,2,3,4,
5,6,7,8,
9,10,11,12,
13,14,15,16

Now that I have these I have brokent them down with the crystal...R Y B
so I have
Red -- Set, Fer, Fer, Fer
Yellow - Fer, Djo, New, Ben
Blue -- Ra, Kha, Ben, Kar

Now exactly what am I supposed to do and in what order? From this point out I am completly confused...please help me get back on track. Thanks.

Okay - have a look at your card catalogue at the start of the repository.
For each colour in the catalogue put your symbols in the order that they appear on the catalogue from top to bottom. So for example in your red cataloguem, FER might be before SET.

Then look at the corresponding areas to those symbols.
So for example a yellow fer may correspond to Ruki Population surveys (just as an example, I don't know if it does).
Then go to the place indicated by those symbols in the order (for you)

All the red symbols (in the order shown in the catalogue)
All the yellow symbols (as above)
All the blue symbols (as above)

When you get to the correct area look for the scroll that matches the colour and the symbol of the area.
So using my above example in the Ruki Population Surveys area you would look for a scroll with a yellow FER on it and click on it. Then continue with the next location until you've done all 12!

yes, x represents a blank.

I'm a SET and still haven't gotten to see the light despite having refreshed over a total of about 10 different hours. Can someone just clarify whether you just refresh at anytime during the hour?

[intentions14]

you should add the trick we found jasujo

There has been around 20 pages of posts in less than 3 hours. Please tell me somethin new has happened and what is the little trick?

[jojoneo]

anyone try reading the tep scroll at the temple?

[XenaAndGabrielle]

anyone try reading the tep scroll at the temple?

You mean the last scroll of your sequence ... but in the temple?

I am planning on trying that before I go to bed.

[Locetic]
