Part 6 is up now! We're kind of stuck as far as what to do next, any suggestions?

Have you entered the dream world at every green campfire?

Every one that we've found, I think: the three tower fires and the one next to the vault. Have we missed any?

You haven't missed any, no.

But that last one was interesting. As was the last activity, however misguided in approach.

I would ask; you lit a theory that things in the real world, and things in the dream world, influence each other. But then you extinguished that theory. Are you assuming the two worlds are completely separate, or have you tested the theory?

I see the door in the tower still eludes you...
You're so close...
Hrmm, how to put it...

Because you've seen it before, the clue is in the diving bell.
It is not a slide reel.
But it will show you a secret.

The Owlk seemingly have a... place... where they dream of their home.
That place is very alien to you.
But the entrances to that place are familiar to you.

The place the Owlk go to, as you have seen, is not a one way trip.
So many times, you have lit the way.
But not just with your lantern.

One... two...
That feels natural.
Like breathing in. Like breathing out.

Light is your guide.
Darkness is your tool.
There is more to explore here.

We are 2 for 3!
And we have learned some cool things!
Gabbro would be proud!

That fireplace thing,
Those Owlk are jerks, blocking path.
Can you be a jerk?

Lessons learned, hints heard,
An interloper studies
The dark path ahead.

The owlk lodge, the bells,
Synonym for Extinguish.
It's necessary.

I think way back to,
The Original LP.
Show us what you learned.

At the end of it,
You have been a fun LP,
Thank you for the streams.

Your patience began to tire
Stuck in a logical mire
You always reset
When you got wet
And never noted the fire

Light is an allegory
A symbol of Owlk's glory
Be it life or lamp
Both die if damp
It's crucial to the story

Time was a crucial role
In this puzzle casserole
Like the sand on the skins
Of the old Ash Twins
You've used it to achieve your goal

I thought you a bit impatient
Did not want you complacent
A jerk with a light
Just out of sight
In time, goal adjacent

You've figured out how death
Does not effect your breath
When in the sim
A solution so grim
You'd think it came from Macbeth

Now for what comes next
I think you'll remain perplexed
So I'll hide these flags
Inside spoiler tags
For when you're really vexed

The lessons you've learned are key
For you are about to see
The codes in the plates
In unusable states
Protect the locks of three

The first should be so obvious
It really is so generous
You clip through the map
Bypass the "trap"
To the glee of your audience

Second requires a sight
One without a light
No code in this game
Could ever dare tame
Brute force done in spite

Third we've finally seen
By fire that burns so green
Death is no bar
To come this far
And silence the bell machine

We are now at the ledge
Of hints that I can pledge
Please talk to your friends
Before time ends
And you step off the edge

It's been thousands, possibly millions of years with that server running fine 24/7. It's just that now, at the end of the universe, the neglected infrastructure is finally breaking down being broken by either the direct action or the quasi-ethereal presence of a representative of a species that routinely breaks things.
