  As you enter the temple, you are immediately struck by the beauty and grandeur of the structure. Tall, marble pillars hold up the roof, with ivy twining around at the just the right places... You stride slowly up to the altar, to pay your respects to the goddess which this temple is dedicated to - Athena. Beside the altar is a slab of stone with odd writing on it...

Mysterious Stone
As you approach the stone, you notice some odd writing on it... Athena Greetings, traveller. I am Athena, goddess and guardian of this temple. I feel a need to give you more difficult challenges than before, now that you are more experienced. Here are your new objectives. I will give you missions, to help mortals with their problems to be solved. I will supply you with sufficiant information, and, as always, rewards. But now, the challenges are more difficult, so the rewards will be better...
Note: Lately, Athena has been known to give out random items during missions, to devoted questors. Hmm...

Alright! To all people who signed up. Send in what you have to me when you can, and I'll just give out the prize to whoever's got the most right. I can't really keep up with this anymore, so it's just what I decided to do...sorry! I might get this back up again if I can in the future, though, so you never know.

A Little History Lesson
Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom, war, the arts, industry, justice and skill. She was the favorite child of Zeus. She had sprung fully grown out of her father's head. Her mother was Metis, goddess of wisdom and Zeus' first wife. In fear that Metis would bear a son mightier than himself. Zeus swallowed her and she began to make a robe and helmet for her daughter. The hammering of the helmet caused Zeus great pain in the form of headaches and he cried out in agony. Skilled Hephaestus ran to his father and split his skull open and from it emerged Athena, fully grown and wearing her mother's robe and helmet. She is the virgin mother of Erichthnonius.

Mission Requirements
1. Send a trade with 500g to Darkwater12, titled 'Temple of Athena', and I will put you on the list of participants. The 500g cost is merely to help get better prizes, and to show you are actually serious about this. This must be done before anything else, and once for every single new mission.
2. Keep a mission log (see below) and PM it to me when all the information has been released, or when you feel confident enough. Only one submission per person per mission. Mission Log Clues I found:1. There are ten clues per mission, and these are not actual clues. 2. You do not need to answer all the questions right. Only the final question. But you will need some question answers to help you solve this. 3. The clues could be in the journals or questions. 4. You go up a rank for every 5 completed mission. 5. To complete a mission, you only need to have got the correct final answer. You don't have to be the winner. 6. The winner is the person with the best (I check for completion) mission log. 7. If you're unsure about clues, it's alright to put more than ten, but I only mean for there to be ten. 8. There are ten journals and fifteen questions per mission. Next to some questions are which journals they correspond to. 9. I will tell you when a mission is over. That is when you send in your mission logs. 10. You can roleplay your progress during missions if you choose to. Answers to Questions1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. Final Answer to Main QuestionThe rules must be followed...and this is not an actual answer.

The Mission
Mission #1
Can't Stop Falling in Love!
Main Question
Find out who Kirami is in love with.
Questions Posted: 8/15
Mysterious Note - Monday
I found this note in Kirami's bag today...whatever could it mean? It's not in her handwriting. Note OLEV BLF ULIVEVI, PRIZNR. Farm Trouble - Tuesday
Farmer Bob needs to buy chickens. Which of the following is the best deal? Prices $35.80 for 10 chickens. $48.75 for 15 chickens. $ 71.20 for 20 chickens. Odd Conversations - Part One - Wednesday
Okay, I've managed to get a snippet of a very odd conversation. What on earth are they talking about? Conversation Snippet #1 "He fell from a tree! Has Betty dried chicken? Younger ones or older? Siblings of the maple tree." Odd Conversations - Part Two - Thursday
Here's what I jotted down from Kirami's conversation: Conversation Snippet #2 "...come and not imagine Mira's art? Gosh! I notified everyone's home. Imbecile. Since Brian loaned Andy's car, Karl had an important reservation. Fred left on Wednesday. Isabelle needed goose ingredients. Neil took her eggs, while Irene needed dirtweed." Bowling Fun! - Friday
I attended a bowling contest with Shara and some friends on Friday. How many points did we get? Who won? Bowling Scores Team #1 - Karl and Lianne = 48 Team #2 - Bob and Shara = ? Team #3 - Enoch and Erica = 50 Team #4 - John and Carra = 52 Bonus Question #1
Do what the answer to this question tells you once decoded. Bonus questions are only extras, and have nothing to do with the storyline. Bonus Question #1 PT A NNA EOIO I YU MSIN LG FR A BNS I YU WN! U IJ MTCN N OR ISO O O OU F O I! Roses into Milk - Saturday
My friend said there was a way to make a rose into milk! If I found out, I'd be rich! But Shara said it was a 'word ladder' and gave me this. How would I fill it out? Rose into Milk ROSE _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ MILK Numerical Nonsense - Part One - Sunday
Here's what was on the odd sheet of paper I had mentioned. What on earth is it? Sheet of Paper #1 14 11 - 18 15 17 11 25 - 9 7 26 25! Journals Posted: 7/10
Monday Farmer Bob ...*groan*. Lately, I've been ever so frustrated with Kirami, my daughter. She's so madly in love with a boy, I can tell, but I don't know who. She hasn't been helping much, and is always staring out into space, or gazing down at the village.
Tuesday
Farmer Bob I've sent one of my friends to get some information on the young men of the village. Hopefully this will be of some help. Eight chickens died today, so I'll probably need some new ones soon. Wonder why they're dieing...probably because Kirami's been too distracted while feeding, and put too little.
Wednesday
Farmer Bob My friend said he's working on it. He got some names, and hopefully he'll get some information and pictures soon. The new chickens seem to be doing well. Lately, I've noticed that Kirami and Shara, my wife, seem to have these odd conversations every night, and I'm pretty sure they're in code, about the boy. I can't figure them out, though...
Thursday
Farmer Bob Well, turns out Kirami and Shara have different codes with different people, so I jotted down a rather long one Kirami had with her friend the other day. Also, my friend at the village has finally gotten some pictures of the boys. Now for some information on them...
Friday
Farmer Bob Well, I've decided to lay off of the conversations for now, and decided to go have some fun with Shara and the gang. Boy, did we have fun! No news from my friend yet, though, but I guess the answer might come to me if I just relax a bit.
Saturday
Farmer Bob Still no word from my friend. He did tell me, however, that there was a way to become rich, but Shara and Kirami just laughed...? I'm so confused!
Sunday
Farmer Bob I'm meeting my friend on Tuesday, and he's got the information! Yes, at last! Now I can get down to business, and solve this mystery once and for all! In Kirami's diary, I found another odd piece of paper, but this one has numbers on it! I feel so stupid...it all doesn't make any sense! I'm going to investigate further in her room tomorrow, when she goes out with her friends.
Suspects
Young men from village. Not in any particular order.
Arnold Larsen
Kyle Kuvais
Don Ridel
Damien LeBlanc
Aron Kasis
Ken Ryston
Kirk Lander
Dave Kielston
Allen Richards
More coming soon, including descriptions. (I'm working on it...)
Hints
Two actual clues are:
1. Kirami likes a boy. (Monday's journal)
2. He can read and write. (Question #1)
