Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy – Voss Conservation Society Guide

How to Solve – Voss Conservation Society

The business card had the website URL on it:

http://www.vossconservation.org

Puzzle 1: Investigation Partners

Clicking “Investigation Partners” on the Voss website triggers a captcha-style popup displaying a sequence of unknown glyphs.

Hints:

  • Hint 1: The Voss website has more to explore than just the Investigation Partners lock.
  • Hint 2: Check the Collections section carefully
  • Hint 3: The Lacombe Tablet article includes a partial translation of an inscription. Look familiar?

Solution: The Collections section of the Voss website features an article about a carved tablet. It provides a partial translation that maps each symbol to a letter, this is the glyph key. Apply it to the captcha symbols to get an encoded string of standard letters.

Intermediate result – XHYZV ELOZJGI

Puzzle 2: The Shift Cipher

The decoded string is still not readable. A second step is required. The clue is somewhere in the kit Camille shared.

Hints:

  • Hint 1: The handwritten note from Voss has a specific phrase worth paying close attention to.
  • Hint 2: “Bringing clarity to what was left in the dark” – try adjusting the brightness and contrast on the business card.
  • Hint 3: Look at the corners of the business card once the image is brightened. Reading clockwise from the top left.
  • Hint 4: Back to the captcha message: “To underscore the negative is to shift toward clarity.” The underscored numeral means a negative value.

Solution: Open the Voss business card in any image editor (Photoshop, GIMP, or even your phone’s photo editor) and increase the brightness and contrast. Four Roman numerals appear hidden in the corners of the dark border. Reading clockwise from the top left: V, IV, II, VIII, with the bottom-left numeral underscored, indicating a negative value. The four shift values are: +5, +4, +2, −8. Apply them as a repeating key to the intermediate result, cycling through for each letter.

Answer – CLARA INGENIA

Translation: “Bright minds.” Enter this into the Investigation Partners field to unlock the section and register as an official Investigation Partner.
