Puzzling Things

By Erin & Morgana

It is said that there are times where an ancestor's talent will make a reappearance somewhere down the line. While I don't know about that - I think someone in my family would have at least some artistic ability with one of our ancestors being Norman Rockwell - I think it is safe to say we wouldn't be here without our ancestors before us.

It is also said that the past influences the future and that the mistakes made in the past should should be learned from in the future. If this is the case, I would love to know what mistake our ancestor's made in the past to lead us to using Owls to send mail. I cannot imagine that we always used Owls, so what had they tried before? Floo without Floo Powder? Pigeons? Horse and messenger? Well whatever method was attempted, I think it is safe to say that it was not a success.

In these two puzzles we explore the beauty of Owls and Owl Post

First, is this Slide Puzzle

Last, is this Cryptogram

For your entry, you will need:
1. A screenshot of your completed slider puzzle
2. Either an image of your completed cryptogram or the text of the cryptogram inserted into the owl you send.

All 100% correct entries will be randomized for the galleon prizes of 5000 and 2500.

Please owl completed entries to Soup Account with subject heading "Puzzling Things" by September 28th at 11:59 PM HEX Time.

Good luck!
