Wise Old King

King Hagan, also known as the Wise Old King, ruler of Brightvale, is always on the search for additional enlightenment. Other than from his voracious reading, this includes hearing wise words from fellow Neopians, like you!

I'm wise, and I don't have a brother.

Select your words wisely from the dropdown, and try to empress the wisest king. If he's impressed, you may be rewarded!

Outcomes

Regardless of what wisdom you bestow upon Hagan, your grade is completely random. Sadly there aren't any tips or tricks to boosting the grade he awards you, it is entirely random and has nothing to do with what you actually choose to say to him. Below outlines the possible responses and any awards from him pondering your statement.

A+

Flavor Text: Wow! King Hagan is very impressed.

Hagan: Ahh, brilliant! It's good to know there are intelligent Neopians out there.
I give you an A+! (XXX out of 1000)
You must take this gift from me.

Reward: You profound genius you! As a reward for your intellect you will receive one of the following books, some Neopoints, potentially also one of the Grade B books, and you may also randomly be awarded an avatar.

B

Flavor Text: It seems he is not displeased. That's good.

Hagan: Well you're not the sharpest tack in the drawer, but that wasn't too bad.
I give you a B! (XXX out of 1000)
Here is something to help you study.

Reward: Ah, you're smart! But you could still use some wisening up. For this grade King Hagan gives you one of the following books.

I Already Knew That!

Flavor Text: Well, it could have been worse.

Hagan: I'm not dense, youngin'. I already knew that!

Hagan: I'm not dense, youngin'. I already knew that!
I'll give you XX Neopoints for the effort, though.

Reward: Usually nothing, but potentially some neopoints.

---

F-

Flavor Text: Erm... have you been keeping up with your reading?

Hagan: That didn't make any sense at all. Preposterous!
If I could go lower than an F-, I would. (XXX out of 1000)

Reward: Nothing... Crikey, and I thought Skarl had a bad temper! Okay so maybe just saying "angelpuss" was a bad idea. Oh well, better luck tomorrow. :)

Bonuses

Occasionally you will catch Hagan in a good mood (yes it does happen), and he will give you a "x10 bonus". In these cases you can get a few hundred Neopoints out of him, so it's not all bad. (Thanks to Anne for reminding us about that).

Hagan: I'll give you [number] Neopoints for the effort, though (including a x10 bonus since I'm feeling nice today).

This bonus is possible for any outcome other than an F- grade.

Out Studying

There are certain times during the day when you won't be able to bother enlighten King Hagan. Every day between the hours of 8-9AM NST, 1-2PM NST and 7-8PM NST he will be off in his library studying. If you try to visit him during those times you will find an empty throne with a sign on it; just pop back during the next hour and you can try then instead.
