*SPOILER* Waiting for Silver Moon

[hogehoed]

Dear fellow adventures,

I have three ingredients at the moment. Strength, voice and salth.

Spoiler (mouse over to reveal):

I gave the mold from the tree to the blacksmith. He is working on it, but it seems he isn't a very competent blacksmith, because I have been waiting for about three hours now, running endless circles around the foutain. But the dude keeps saying 'give me some time'. Coins don't seem to hurry him up either. How long does it normally take to fill a mold with liquid silver?

I'm getting a little bit bored. Please help! I think I'm almost done.

Try actually leaving the area altogether and coming back.

Keep in mind that this is what you do whenever you want anything to progress in the world of adventure games.

Yes. Adventure games have no concept of actual time passing, just Adventure Time passing, which only passes when you leave the screen or perform an action. If a sign says "Back in five minutes", it actually means "I'll be back when you've done particular action elsewhere totally unrelated to my coming back".

The exception to this rule is... when it doesn't apply. Like in KQ5, where you need to wait for a few minutes in a place which has no indication that you need to wait there.

I don't remember this. Where?

Sorry, Mordack's library, of course.
