This may seem stupid, but why not just rush in and take the information away from the red robes? Save ourselves a crapload of trouble. Or even better, just tell them, it's the info or a nexus.

This is a touchy situation, Atrus. If we run in, then it's tradesmen against tradesmen. (That's a very big no-no, even if they might be "kill on site." I don't remember.) And the red robes might possibly believe that the Nexus is the start of the Age of Chaos, and after it flattens us all, Karthis will smite it with his famed fireball. It's all up in the air, and I myself have no idea what to do. It's all a political thing...

but it still comes down to the fact that there is a nexus coming.
the only way of stoping it is by using the realm spire
the red robes have the realm spire
the red robes out number the black robes (right?)
they won't give it to us without Altar's sword, thus the reason they stole it
Altar won't give up the sword to the red robes, because that is the "start of the age of chaos" in the black robe eyes
We have till April to make a plan, carry it out, and stop that big mountian range pile of slime from Nexus Stoping our butts.
We haven't even talked about it at the guild masters meetings (to my knowdege) it was always being put off
this is a threat and we need to face it as such
everyone and their grandmother wants the tablet
its deep in red robe territoy.
if we hand over the sword whats to say they won't back stab us, and if we just invade who's to say the black robes won't help their 'bothers' or that anyone else who wants it might take a stab at it.
WE MUST FIND A WAY TO GET THE TABLET AND STOP THE NEXUS!
i think thats most of the facts that we know, i'm just really worried that we won't be able to stop it, but we have to. this is a time when not only guildhall needs to unite under a common goal but all of the realm. noone wants another nexus running around, even a small one, and this one comming is going to be the end of us all. we need to stop it for the realms sake.
also i'm pretty sure shell of sound and wall of sound keep the nexus at bay. because i either saw or heard (i can't even remember now) about during the may event a bard protecting the healing ground from the nexus using wall of sound. and i'm pretty sure in their descriptions it says that they stops anything from passing through them. the nexus might be ballad proof, projectile proof, melee proof, spell proof, eatter of barriers and people and items, but i don't think it can go through a shell or wall of sound.

can the realm spire open up the way to the void? if it could that would be very, very bad.

All the realm spire does is stop things from other realms from coming in here. So the nexus will be booted from our realm like red-headed stepchild at K-mart.
Also, the Red Robes have information about the realm Spire, but not the realm spire itself.
And the realm Spire is slowly decaying, and if it breaks, all kinds of stuff would come (if the nexus somehow didn't fall).

The nexus that is currently in the realm would still be here, but the giant one that is supposedly coming wouldn't be able to come into our realm. It would be closed off to it, as well as other alien creatures to this realm, like Servantors.
The red robes have the tablet that reveals where the realm spire is. We can't find the realm spire without it.
Trust me, we need to reactivate the realm spire or else the realm is completely open to attack from other dimensions, and there's no chance of stopping it.

actually the realm is nexusless right now when the small one found out that we killed the big one it fled, opened a portal and went running from us like any nexus should. but the realm spire can open or close portals right? that means that it could open portals to another plane, why not the void?

the realm spire blocks inter-planar travel to our realm and nothing else. although, keep in mind, that one thing is a pretty big job. theoretically, tradesmen can still access other realms through way of the portal ritual but that knowledge was lost in the age of death.
also, one more time: the nexus has an instant cast, touch dispell ritual. this will include a wall of sound. if you heard of a bard keeping the healing ground safe, it was most likely that he/she was not keeping it from the nexus but instead from a group of shaggoths/dominated tradesmen.

no the nexus was looking right at the bard i'll check my sourses cause they said they saw it, but i know it can eat barriers and such but i remember hearing that a bard was keeping the nexus itself from the healing ground.

are you certain that it perhaps leave of its own accord? possibly to go trash some ballistas?
and then there's always the metagame aspect, maybe the producers were told not to take the pc healing ground? the final point is once again, the nexus has an instant cast, touch dispell ritual. you all understand what that means, right? any sp/p/b/rit that can be cast whether augemented or not, is instantly dispelled, no if's and's or but's.

I'm going to describe the nexus being stopped by the bard 1 of 3 things 1- The constent mana coming out of the bard stopped it. what i mean by this the nexus can dispell anything on touch but how can it dispell something that is constently being casted. a dispell vial does not work on a ballad and neither does a dispell ritiual so it really can't be destroyed because there is a constent flow of mana being used that can not stop until the bard stops singing. 2- it might not have been sure of the rule and decieded instead of causing a problem it would just turn around and advoid the predicament all together 3- it was just tired of having to destroy the healing ground when we just returned a minute later. plus it was constantly being beaten by ballista shots that maybe it dubbed it futile to destroy the ground what ever it was we still beat the Nexus and i'm sure we can handle what ever comes our way. if we don't we die it is as simple that. live for the present we will worry about the realm spire were a situation requires us to. but for now let's try not to think about any more nexi we are all scared of them but i want to know more personal hatereds and fears ;D
