Popular Post SheHawk 198 Posted November 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2022 (edited) Hello everyone, She Hawk here with something new to post about Sacred 2 and please do forgive me if the contents of this post have been discussed before. These are my own personal entries and thoughts about the locations that are of interest to me. So we start off with The Seraphim Islands, what is so interesting about that, I hear you ask? Well I will show you, then I will talk about it and also give you my thoughts about what the image contains. There are two things of interest and here is image 1. Possible Teleportation Device & Sealed Crate No 1. Well now, this is a very odd thing to see in the game and I want to point out before anyone comments on this. If this matter has been discussed before, that is fine, so please don't get on at me if this has been covered before. This is my take on the two things in question. But before we get to that, to find this, it's the path directly next to the old servants quarters where you pick up a piece of the Great Machine Sculpture. At the end of the path there is a Seraphim with a quest to take or leave it, before you get to her there is of course a Hero Chest, next to her there is a T-Energy Console and then there is this 1: The Possible Teleportation Device. Forgive me for this as it is from my point of view that, that circular thing blocked off by what seems like some sort of a sealed gate of some sort and it's not the only one to appear in the game, but I will discus that in a future post. For now, my main focus is on what could that circular thing be for and there is only one logical thing at least for me that comes to my mind, so please forgive me for this, if it does not seem logical to you. But in my mind, I can't but help think that this is an early concept for a teleportor, that got abbandoned but it was left in the game, but left inactive and unusable of course. It is not like the two ground teleporters that are there on the Seraphim Island, that part is obvious. So if it had been a teleportation device that only activates once your caracter steps onto it, inside that circle. A beem maybe appears and then your character is teleported. But to where? One might say the outer surrounding islands to the Seraphim Island and that could be possible, but I have another likely candidate for that. So please bear with me on that one. I feel that there was going to be possibly a sort of bonus level, if you will, that would be the Homeworld of the Dragons, as it once used to exist, or it could exist outside of Ancaria, which ever one of those you prefer of course. Both are hopefully decent ideas? You are of course welcome to suggest your own ideas, that what this post is for, to have a conversation about this, with me that is. I am sorry if it has all been said before. Next up is 2: The 1st of 2 sealed crates. It remindes me of one of those hilighted chests for each character where they pick up a basic piece of aramour and a health potion and a weapon. Why not a full set of armour I do not know, I wish that had been done, until your character at least gets enough gold behind them to buy better pieces of armour like what you could do in the two Champions Games. Champions of Norrath, Champions Return To Arms. Anyway what was this box supposed to be for? I can't but help get the idea that it could have been either for a possible other character that got scrapped or lootable connected to that quest given by the Speraphim, but instead, it's been seeled off, but why? This is anyone's guess or stretch of the imagination and I hope at least that you like mine? Next up, is another image, but before showing you it. To get to this location, it is a turn to the right with a flight of stone steps, but this is before you reach the building that contains the Merchant and Mr Giles in it, there is a piece of some sort of steel pillar of some kind strewn out almost blocking your path, there's something like one of those glowing Crates, but its almost egg like shapped. Anyway, you go down the stone steps and to the left there is a stone monster with one of these ! above his head and another Seraphim with yet another T-Energy Console behind her, she has a quest to give too. But past her, is another flight of stone steps going down until you reach image 2: Possible Boat Teleporter. Possible Boat Teleporter. To show you what I mean, I will include an image of one of these boat telporters that teleport you to another part of an area. (That will have to wait until part 2 now, but I hope you know what I mean) Anyway, this is what I feel was or could have been and still could be used to teleport the players to the two main Islands to the left of Serphim Island and to the one on the right (Possibly) I honestly can't really see why not, these could not have been changed to allow the characters in the game to explore and for a few monsters for them to fight along the way of course. Well that's it for part 1 of this post, I hope you all look forward to when I post part 2? Live long and prosper and may the force be with you all.

Popular Post Hooyaah 2,823 Posted November 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2022 I find your perspective refreshing and interesting. One thing about the land of Ancaria is there is so much to see and so much that is fascinating and thought provoking. There are many unusual objects and devices, many of which are either open for interpretation or defy explanation. The boat you captured in a screenshot is part of a story related to a quest involving a high elf who goes insane, ending up hiding inside a cave in the swamp region. (Watch out for him.) There is a very similar thread, Funny/Interesting Sacred 2 Screenshots, which you might enjoy. You may post in it, or you you are welcome continue posting here, in this thread of your own creation. 1 1 Link to comment

Thank you for your input Steve, I really appreciate that and that you find my perspective refreshing. I have few more other locations to talk about. Thanks for the link, but there is like 37 pages, if I counted them right, sorry if not. On which page is this boat talked about/shared, please? Your link took me to the first page, I went through the first few pages and did not find the topic related to my post, unless I missed it completely. Sorry if that is the case. Since I have started my own topic here, I will continue here. I had a feeling though that there was every possible chance that some of my screen shots had already been discused somewhere here on DarkMatters. It matters not, I just simply want to share my thoughts and feelings about such locations and hope like with you that my interpratation will be of interest to others also. But if there is a why to have my post moved there to save me having to repost this post there too, I sure would be grateful. Either way, I am just happy sharing my thoughts views and my imaginings of what some of these locations etc. could be, what they mean to me etc. Just out of curiousty what do you think about my thoughts on that possible teleporter? It might not even remotely be one and it just could be my imagination, like I said, I have one heck of an imagination. *Big grin* Edited December 4, 2022 by SheHawk 2 Link to comment
Popular Post idbeholdME 394 Posted December 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 2, 2022 (edited) There are a couple more un-openable lootables in the game, but I can't remember their locations off the top of my head right now. I think those were mostly an oversight. I don't really think it could be remains of something the original developers ultimately decided to not implement, but anything's possible As for what the thing might be, it is definitely a Seraphim construction. There is a part of it in the underground of the Abbey in the Seraphim Valley, where the Abbess is: Could very well be a teleporter receiving platform. Would have been cool if the platform on the Seraphim Island led here, which would actually lend credence to the claims of the sisters there which say they are waiting for the Seraphims' return. Can't really remember right now if I've seen this in other places... It ultimately ended up as just a decoration. Or maybe it's intentional to indicate that the Seraphim could use it at any time and make the Abbey sisters really happy, but they don't really care Most of them are rather condescending anyway, so would fit their modus operandi Edited December 2, 2022 by idbeholdME 2 1 Link to comment

It was more of an invitation to look at some of the posts there, as they seemed to become more interesting page after page, much as I expect to occur with your thread. So, have fun with both, as you will! 1 Link to comment

I'll keep my post here. I am going to work on doing part 2 asap and you will be happy to know that there will be a few more parts to follow with lots of interesting interpritations for you and everyone else too. I hope that you look foward to them as I do in making them. Edited December 4, 2022 by SheHawk Link to comment

I was going to share this location too, as this is the only other place with a closed off gate similar to the one that I have posted.Unfortunately there is nothing behinde this particular gate, unless you mean that the Seraphim just simply teleport just infront of it? That is indeed a possability, one that I had not considered until you mentioned it, so thank you for that. Well now, that is one less screen capture for me now to use, but that's okay. I still like the idea that particualr portal that I mentioned and showed to be a possible time portal that could take a palyer back in time to the same Island, but with all of the structures etc. all in tact. Or like I have said, it could be a gateway to the hoe world of the dragons themselves. More about that theory in a much later post. For now, thanks for the mention and your ideas too. They are greatly appreciated. Edited December 4, 2022 by SheHawk 1 Link to comment

I was thinking something in the vein that the one on the Seraphim island allows to pick a destination, while the one in the abbey only serves as a target/receiver, without the ability to use it to teleport elsewhere. Sort of a precaution measure to prevent others from misusing it. If you know Stargate, then the one on the island would be a gate with a DHD device and the one in the abbey just a gate. https://stargate.fandom.com/wiki/Dial_Home_Device 1 1 Link to comment

I like it. I like it alot and yes I know of Stargate very well, I have seen the original movie, SG1 every season of it, Stargate Atlantis, every season of that, and finally every season of Stargate Universe as well.
