The Masked Mystery. ⚔💙

[Abigail_Eggsong]

Give me a moment to impart,
The reasons of the Warriorheart.
Mine goal 'twas founded in vain,
The goal did Direscope pain:
To join the Aethasian Chess League.
But I believe, the most intrigue,
Was the crux mission's exclaim:
"A mystery shall I remain,
Until I beat Hans at his game."
A win thru time is what I claim,
For win on time I counteth not.

Key? Among "The Secret" forgot:
What was hidden inside the nest?
For indeed the robin knows best!
The songs of rejoicing were heard,
And a few others joined the bird:
Protecting the nest-guarding the song,
With the "me" and "cherry tree" sidelong.

Paradigms made, now to deject
When the truth, indeed, hast respect.
Many a guesswork was assumed,
Through analysis, 'twas foredoomed.
As the matter of truth is told-
Let light shine, and Chayil uphold!
The secret for thyselves to see,
Warriorheart, was really me.

Special thanks to @Eerie_Coppernight and @Jessie_Dearsnap for aid in the poem's creation.

[Eerie_Coppernight]

You've done well, sweetheart.

[Jessie_Dearsnap]

Bravo, m'dear! You have presented wonderfully! Very proud of you!

( The Secret
BY ANONYMOUS
We have a secret, just we three,
The robin, and I, and the sweet cherry-tree;
The bird told the tree, and the tree told me,
And nobody knows it but just us three.

But of course the robin knows it best,
Because she built the—I shan't tell the rest;
And laid the four little—something in it—
I'm afraid I shall tell it every minute.

But if the tree and the robin don't peep,
I'll try my best the secret to keep;
Though I know when the little birds fly about
Then the whole secret will be out.)

Wow. Bravo! I still have some questions... Partly cause I'm not good at poetry or deciphering it.

I have another clue. You know how The Secret says, 'And laid the four little—something in it—'?
Well there are four silhouettes in Jessie's picutre.

This I concur was a really good thought, Sir Crinklegadget. (I did not think of it.)

Wow. Bravo! I still have some questions... Partly cause I'm not good at poetry or deciphering it.

Speak them. 🦅

[Dathmaul_Crinklegadget]

I have 1 more minute to be on the forums until way later today but I get chess messages sent to my email so...

How does the picture that Jessie posted on the forums have anything to do with Warriorheart? Who's the 'me,' and the 'cherry tree?'

[Lilliana_Umbrellascope]

I think some of y'all owe @Jessie_Dearsnap an apology.

[Levi_Orangeburst]

Why, may I ask?

The "Me" in the poem ended up @Jessie_Dearsnap; the "Cherry Tree" as @Elijah_Overcape.
They were the first two Aethasians to solve "The Secret" poem/riddle.

The songs of rejoicing were heard,
And a few others joined the bird:
Protecting the nest-guarding the song,
With the "me" and "cherry tree" sidelong.

A shout out to @Elizabeth_Newroad, as she and Lady Dearsnap fought valiantly to protect the nest from discovery before the mission's completion.

Lady Newroad and Lady Dearsnap both received quite a few unkind words and blows for my sake...

Proverbs 3:27 (KJV)
27 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it.

Thank you Ladies for your help and courage to stand alongside me in my quest!

I cannot forget the others who solved the mystery:

@caleb_Larkmagnet1
@Avalata_Trumpetspinner
@Eerie_Coppernight
@Hanna_Brassheart
and lastly included in this list shall be @Jones_Elderview.

[Levi_Orangeburst]

Thank you Ladies for your help and courage to stand alongside me in my quest!

I'm still confused as to what your quest was...

[Abigail_Eggsong]

Was the crux mission's exclaim:
"A mystery shall I remain,
Until I beat Hans at his game."

My mission was to beat Sir Oddcraft at chess.
The quest was the journey through time it took for the completion of the mission.

[Levi_Orangeburst]

That's kind of... annoying, honestly. Nay, you made people get a little more then annoyed while trying to solve this. I don't think it was worth it in any way.

[Abigail_Eggsong]

It took a lot longer than I had supposed. I did not mean to intentionally stir up anyone to anger or resentment.

Let me ask this: did I ever publicize myself on the forums?
Didn't someone ask a question and another post one of my comments for all to see?

while trying to solve this.

Aethesian Congregation of Detectives

The congregation has tried not to get involved in that, considering it is mostly a non-Aetherlight mystery. (Starting on Chess.com).

Just decided this because it sounded good.

Explain.

[Lilliana_Umbrellascope]

Why, may I ask?

As Abigail said, some people on here said unkind things and pressured her trying to figure out who Warriorheart11 was.

I don't think it was worth it in any way.

You didn't have to be involved, no one did. Everyoje blew it wayyyy out of proportion. She wanted to bear Hans at chess. Was it conventional? No. But that isn't for us to judge her on.

She friended us in chess because we are her friends. If you didn't like not knowing who Warrior was then you should have blocked them.

So I'm trying to get this straight, but failing, could you help me out?

This whole time your mission was to join the chess league?...You know you could've just asked, I'm sure Beck would be fine with letting you in.

[Levi_Orangeburst]

Explain.

I wasn't trying to get involved in it, neither was the congregation as a whole. All I'm saying is I don't think it was the best thing to do.

did I ever publicize myself on the forums? Didn't someone ask a question and another post one of my comments for all to see?

Levi_Orangeburst:

I'm confused...?

You didn't have to be involved, no one did. Everyoje blew it wayyyy out of proportion.

I wasn't involved, but you know some people are going to want to solve it if she is basically asking for it to be solved! If she didn't wan't it blown out of proportion she shouldn't have put cryptic poems and stuff.

[Levi_Orangeburst]

I'm confused...?

Lilliana_Umbrellascope:

Never mind, I understand now. And yes, it should have stayed a chess mystery. But chess and the forums are strongly connected. So expect anything you do there to show up here.

[Jones_Elderview]

If she didn't wan't it blown out of proportion she shouldn't have put cryptic poems and stuff.

Levi has a point, I've explained this before to @Jessie_Dearsnap, it's like covering your tracks after building a giant neon 'SOLVE ME" Sign, everyone wanted to solve it, but no one could. Well, no one but people who Warrior wanted to know, which defeats the whole purpose of the sign.

[Levi_Orangeburst]

And in covering your tracks, you made everyone want to solve it even more!
Which in turn, because of the inability to solve it, made people get flustered.
