Unanswered questions
Mysteries
Open and resolved questions connected to Talcydimir Pridesire.
How Was Thjazi’s Rescue Sabotaged?
Who compromised the rescue, what did Azune detect on Thjazi, and is Cyd’s disappearance part of the same sabotage?
The immediate failure is known: Thimble was attacked before delivering the genuine glyph, while a different magical signature was placed on Thjazi.
Latest developmentThe Full Rescue Chain Is Reconstructed
The survivors establish that Thimble would plant the glyph, Azune would manipulate the inspection, Cyd would position Casimir’s wagon, and Thaisha and Occtis would complete the extraction. The plan failed before its first physical stage because Thimble was attacked before delivering the glyph.
Where Is Cyd Pridesire?
What prevented Cyd from reaching the rescue, and where is he now?
Cyd was responsible for positioning the rescue wagon but never appeared, and neither Teor nor Azune knows where he is.
Latest developmentCyd Was Supposed to Position Casimir’s Wagon
The survivors establish that Cyd’s precise role was to move Casimir’s wagon into position so that Thjazi could teleport inside it. Cyd’s disappearance therefore removed a critical stage of the extraction plan.
