Also, if anyone from the old thread wants to summarize the headway made so far in this puzzle, it would probably help.


Splitting up to cover more ground felt like a good idea. "Shuri, L33tz4n, you and I go east. Uberbob, you go west." The rabbit saluted and ran back to the west.
"What about us?" Araches asked, gesturing to herself and Fooruman.
"Stay here and make sure nothing bad happens."
L33tz4n, Shuri, and I walked through the large door to the east. The walls fell away, revealing a seemingly bottomless abyss to our left and right. The sound of unseen wind echoed through the empty space, and the frozen walkway below us glowed with an ominous light. At the end, an inscription was carved into the wall. I carefully crossed the platform to examine it. I read it aloud to L33tz4n and Shuri.

time passes as one approaches the end
a step forward can take any form
outside it matters that face of the commands stay constant
there is no reason at all to be on the edge of caution
before you move, the point is simply to face left


Below it was a carving in the ice.



"What do you think it means?" L33tz4n asked.
"I guess it's a riddle. Or bad poetry."
