I have some things!

number 1

the list of names on the official meeting paper. it has

usim the fire heart and rhozora the seer

the definiton of seer is
a person who is supposed to be able, through supernatural insight, to see what the future holds.
I think that is pretty raident!

okay so i found some more stuff

in the crack of dawn post it stays that she was hovering 6 inches over the steps of the palace shining with the light of the cosmos

I don't see this as a coincidence

Great sleuthing! This could well be about Rhozara and Usim, since there are a few exchanges between them! We will need someone to unlock the next clue before we can continue, I think.

Wow, this clue is being quite stubborn, so I'm bumping it up! Anyone know anyone with 16-character username?

I have a 15, sorry. >_<

\o/ All three clues are now open!

Soooo... now what does it mean? :thinking:

Maybe this has to do with Usim and Rhozora's courtship?

Yeah, that's what I've been thinking. Rhozora gives Usim a second chance after turning him down initially because of zir fears; I tried patience, and 'keeping a respectful distance', but those didn't work.

As for radiance, Usim's salutation here...

The "fire and radiance" may imply them, and Rhozora did turn Usim down at first, and ze admits to being afraid of entering a relationship.

Maybe...

overcoming your own fears
Eladus
The Order/Order of Volcanic Tranquility

None of those, nor The Order of Volcanic Tranquility, Eladus's insight, or Eladus's judgment.

Interestingly, we've got two sets of numbers penned in Rhozora and Usim's hands:





I wonder if those are related?

Possible! Eladus also got a passphrase from Usim, so that may relate to that, too. I also tried "admiration," to no avail.

random idea what if we associated the numbers in the sequence with a letter in the alphabet ranging from 1 to 26?

I tried this but it seems like a bunch of gibberish.

hmcfcchoicegghcehgimjj - a “decoding”of the first

what if you tried like for the 3 7 1 it reffered to the word order?

I started to try it but it also seems like a bunch of gibberish.

"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear." - Franklin D. Roosevelt
That's cute!!!!!

I would say what allows a second chance is either an apology, an explanation, or... something else maybe...? Haha.

what about forgiveness or maybe and this may be wrong the answer could be tomorrow going off how many people use the saying "tomorrow is another day"
