The following non-exhaustive list of words of phrases result in no data being found, despite their potential relevance:

Date unknown

"Thammaron" is now accepted as a search term. Previously, only "Thamarron"[sic] was accepted.

Trivia

  • The puzzle encountered is similar to that of Star Battle/Queens puzzles.
  • During the quest, if the player looks up the term "Azzanadra", Dr Banikan will react with surprise. Dr Banikan is revealed to be Azzanadra in disguise at the end of the quest.
  • During the quest, if the player attempts to enter the search term "Frostenhorn" before Dr Banikan does, it will tell them that access to the data is denied. This suggests that Azzanadra possessed the means to override the golem's data protection protocols.
