Day 16

Started today by contacting an explorer name Starman. I saw a post by him on the message board announcing that he was shopping for a new neighbourhood for much the same reasons as I was. I sent him a PM asking how he was doing with his search and that I was in much the same situation as him. I then went neighbourhood serving but didn't get any further than Jazz's Bevin. Jazz had a group of people there and they were going to do a run through Delin and Eder Tsogal - perfect! I had a great time with them, nice people. They were kind enough to extend me an offer to join, which was tempting but I wanted to hear back from Starman first. Anyway, with the help of this neighbourhood, I finally picked up the Tsogal well piece.

After that, it was getting close to the Tetsonot portal. When I arrived there I found the power was still on from the last time, though still pulsing in an out. The portal soon arrived, though I was disappointed to find it about 10 minutes ahead of my calculations - 9:58 EST. Oh well, I guess I can't depend upon the accuracy of the map.

With that done, and after admiring my well with it's three complete donuts, I decided to go through the first Marker Mission. Now, I have to be honest, I don't have the patience to search around endlessly for these markers. Thankfully I was able to get the approximate locations of all the markers from the folks at Uru Obsession. These markers are a little different than the first set. They are white, instead of red, and don't cause the KI to begin beeping. However, they can be seen from any distance away rather than only appearing when you get close. But, you don't collect them by pressing a button on your KI. You collect them by physically walking, running, or jumping through them. The first set were all readily accessible, but I can't shake the feeling that some are going to require some crazy leaps.

Anyway, after collecting the twelve mission 1 markers, I uploaded them and downloaded the second mission. After that I decided to call it a night.
