Plot Coverage: The Faeries' Ruin

Step 4 - Shhhhhhh!

(You can no longer do this step.)

Head over to Brightvale and click the link that says "You notice a strange door on one side of the castle... how odd." This link is unique to everyone, so you can't use your friend's.
If you don't see it, try refreshing the page or switching between Flash and HTML versions of the map.
After you've clicked that link once, you'll be able to access the archives through this simpler link (or by clicking "Visit the Finneus J. Scrollbottom Auxiliary Surplus Archives" on the Brightvale page).

Your Goal For This Step

You must help the Yurble librarian clean up the archives. Click on the stairwell entrance on the left.

You can sort books in many ways:

  1. Click on a book and then click on another one to switch them.
  2. Click on an empty space on the shelf and then click on a book in order to put it there.
  3. Click on a book and then click on the shelf rooms on the left or right side. Books that do not belong there will come flying back to you.
Start by looking at what shelf categories you have. Each category corresponds to a different image on the book.

Any books that don't match your current shelf can be put into another room (either the left or the right one, so try both for each book). Books have to be placed in a certain order for each category.

Book Categories & Book Orders
From left to right, geometric shape on the book increases by one side.
(Start with small circle, then line, triangle, square, pentagon, etc.)
Sort by book number (lowest to highest).
Sort the geometric shapes on books into rainbow colours.
Dark red, red, orange, yellow, green, teal, light blue, dark blue, purple, black.
Sort book spines into rainbow colours.
Dark red, red, orange, yellow, green, teal, light blue, dark blue, purple, black.
Get the sum of every digit on one book, repeat for all appropriate books, then arrange the books such that the sums go from low to high.
For example, Book #111 would be 1+1+1=3 and Book #99 would be 9+9=18
Book #111 would then be put to the left of Book #99.
Read each number backwards, repeat for all appropriate books, then arrange the books such that the numbers go from lowest to highest.
For example, Book #123 would be read as 321 and Book #911 would be read as 119.
Book #911 would then be put to the left of Book #123.

Press the gold bell when you think you're done. Books in the correct places will stay there, whereas the incorrect ones will go to the bottom of the screen. Click on the Yurble to get rid of him so you can sort.


In retrospect, the Dewey Decimal system would've been better...

Bonus Items

Sometimes, you'll get random items when you place a book or press the bell.


Below are some of the items that you can receive.
