Skirwan sent the following report to TMN:
A coalition of Purple Haze members made an exciting discovery about the Kyuems today. It turns out it's possible to temporarily reactivate the extinguished Kyuems placed during the incursions by feeding them an Ethercle. This, of course, allows easy access to the various spheres of the Ethereal Plane, and could allow strong groups free passage around the lands without the use of Ethereal Portal Stones.
The discovery was made by Purple Haze's resident Ethereal Experts, some of whom are pictured in the accompanying image, following leads provided to Purple Haze member Phroon Thoom by Lugubrion himself.
For a detailed recounting of Phroon's adventure, see a re-enactment as reconstructed by SNN visionstone technicians here:

So, is it spelled:
"kyeum" or "kyuem"?
Puddleopedia has "kyuem" and I went with that, but it seems I've been spelling it rather inconsistently on TMN up to now.

Posted by: Lundar on August 9, 2007 12:01 AMI believe the correct spelling is "doohickey".
Posted by: Skirwan on August 9, 2007 04:43 AMWell done, Purple Haze.
Posted by: Wangah Rah on August 9, 2007 07:49 AMOh yeah, we also found out that this is all Wangah's fault.
Posted by: Skirwan on August 9, 2007 09:21 AMCool! Great job Purple Haze!
Posted by: Yor on August 9, 2007 09:32 AMcool, you could have a kyuem petting zoo & sell ethercles to feed them :)
