>Here, as I promised is a full report of not only what information I posess,
>but what I discovered by applying it (which currently is not much,
>unfortunately). First, I will tell you exactly HOW I came upon the
>information as well as some other things, then I will tell you what my
>search yeilded.

>First, it was long ago, on this very list that one person said something
>about a monk. He said the the monk named Lindel on the Veeshan server seemed
>to know more thta he let's on. No one payed much mind to the statement, but
>I figured "Heck, I play on the Veeshan, so I can check it out, see if he
>does know anything". I added him to my friends list and checked if he was on
>all the time. He didn't come on for a long time, but then he did. I very
>politely asked if he knew anything about the collapsible fishing pole, and a
>lagre conversation ensuded. I led on that I had spent much time searching
>for the pole, and it's secret. (I know it was a lie, but I didn't want to
>just demand the information) I told him that I would tell no one, and begged
>it from him. He told me that he couldn't tell me, and I asked him why. He
>said that only he and other "members of the mark" knew about it. He said
>they were a small group of friends that knew the secret. I asked him if I
>could join the mark, but he said that they approach YOU about joining, not
>the other way around. I think the the mark, as he called it, it probably a
>"secret" group of people, not bound by any guild name. They might be even an
>inter-server group. I begged and pushed him more, telling him that I had
>searched forever, and deserved at least a hint. I told him that I had
>searched the world over many times. Then he said something to the effect of:
>"You have searched the world over, but have you searched it below?" He then
>went to further say: "Search beneath the waves."
>This I though, could be the break we needed, now we don't have to search
>totaly aimlessly. I doubt that he was lying, too, the way we went about the
>conversation, I belive he was giving true hints.
>
>Now, I will tell what I came up with. The first part of the clue he said to
>search underground, basically. Ak'Anon is underground, so that was the first
>place to come to mind, because it also had a lake, which would justify the
>"Search beneath the waves" part, which could also mean the oceans, or other
>bodies of water, but for now, I wanted to stick with Ak'Anon. I figured that
>there could be some sort of secret entrance, a fake wall leading into a
>hidden cave or something. I finally got back to Ak'Anon tonight and search
>around a bit. Altough my search was not thuroughly extensive, I did find
>something VERY VERY interesting (altough it wasn't in the water). I found,
>on the ground, an item called An old silver coin. It looked like a normal
>silver coin, but it was an actual item. The strangest thing, though was that
>it was a MAGIC ITEM, a LORE ITEM, AND...NO DROP! But wait! Items that are no
>drop can't be on the ground, but that was where I found it. SO! It must be a
>quest item, an item that spawned, not something dropped by another player. I
>think that it may be related to something we are looking for. For now,
>though, we should all have our very own old silver coins. I found it in the
>room with the ater wheel, on the other side of the bridge on the high cliff
>above the scrap yard with the Syford Montop guy. It was next to one ofthose
>rotating little star thingies. One without a stand. Hope you can all find
>one, so that we can have more and see about what they might be used for.
>
>Also, I think we should all try to brainstorm about what Lindels clues might
>have meant. Well now that you have it, my information, feel free to make
>comments and add ideas. For now, I must part. Good luck, friends.
