On this sight there are 3 rocks
From here you have to swim 30 climbs in the same direction till you reach the pike of an island
Head to the pillar located in the south of the island. Face north and move 17 steps.
Move around the handicap and go on 64 steps to the northwest
get the item i asked the sphinx for.



pm,s will be ignored , since i have no clue

The Scroll Gives At Where Man Ones A Going Must We Already Found The Mentioned Place To Credit. At This Place Being Located Three Rock In The Triangle Too Each Other. Man One Must On The Lowest Three Rises And Then Toward An Isolated Rock Swimming The Ungefahr Funf Swimming Course Is Distant. Then You Must Ungefahr Thirty Course In The Same Direction Swimming To It To The Point Of The Island Come. Go You To At The Sudlichsten Convenient Saule Turns You With That Jerks To Their So That It To The North Looks And Goes Seventeen Steps. The Obstacle Goes Around And Marches Then Sixty-four Further Steps After Northwest. Procures To You The Article To Which I The Sphinx Asks Property.

go back to ghost and just give it to them,
after, they will ask you to bury it next to kompos, so go back to him, stand nose to nose and /use ur spade.
this way you'll bury the doll

I've got a near complete full version of the english text deciphered. If you haven't got it then the German version is sufficient!

The problem is finding something ingame which matches the description! :(

Does anyone have any idea what the 20 words from the broken scroll refer to? They aren't in the translated/deciphered text.

I'm just wondering if it has something to do with step 11 or some other step later on.

From the german site i translated it with online translator and got this.

THE SCROLL GIVES AT WHERE MAN ONES A GOING MUST WE ALREADY FOUND THE MENTIONED PLACE TO CREDIT. AT THIS PLACE BEING LOCATED THREE ROCK IN THE TRIANGLE TOO EACH OTHER. MAN ONE MUST ON THE LOWEST THREE RISES AND THEN TOWARD AN ISOLATED ROCK SWIMMING THE UNGEFAHR FUNF SWIMMING COURSE IS DISTANT. THEN YOU MUST UNGEFAHR THIRTY COURSE IN THE SAME DIRECTION SWIMMING TO IT TO THE POINT OF THE ISLAND COME. GO YOU TO AT THE SUDLICHSTEN CONVENIENT SAULE TURNS YOU WITH THAT JERKS TO THEIR SO THAT IT TO THE NORTH LOOKS AND GOES SEVENTEEN STEPS. THE OBSTACLE GOES AROUND AND MARCHES THEN SIXTY-FOUR FURTHER STEPS AFTER NORTHWEST. PROCURES TO YOU THE ARTICLE TO WHICH I THE SPHINX ASKS PROPERTY.

i did it with 2 sites and both got same, its diff to understand, but might work. or try a german firend for the german text ^^

if you translate the text right, you get the following :
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The scroll marks the location one has to reach since we already found the place mentioned earlier.
In this Area three rocks form a triangle.
Go up the smallest of the three, then go to an isolated rock about five breaststrokes away.
Carry on for about another thirty strokes in the same direction which leads to the tip of the island.
Go to the column furthest south.
Stand with your back against it while looking north.
Then walk seventeen steps.
Get around the obstacle, then take sixtyfour steps towards the northwest.

Equip the object about which I asked the sphinx a question.

---------------------------------------------------------
So that's that.
The code is simple.
All letters have been switched from place STILL in alfabetical order.
The vocals, however, had their own switching, also in alfabetical order.
Once you do some moving, the code becomes very easy.

Now, where are those damned 3 rocks ? :D

I'll have a /Cg public for all treasure-hunters, so we can help each other or brainstorm when necessary
