Anna and Tatiana texted about opening the clock. That should be your primary goal.
Hint #2
The students used the felt boards quite a bit. They may be able to provide you clues.
Hint #3
The items can be placed on the felt boards to illustrate stories. You need to find any stories that Anna and her friends would have read.
Hint #4
Anna wrote down the call numbers for a book that she has read.
Hint #5
Each completed felt board reveals a note Anna left behind. These notes will help you understand the clock.
Hint # 6 (Felt Board A)
The decrypted poem mentions the sun, a kingdom, a dragon, a knight and a girl.
Hint #7 (Felt Board B)
The story "The Dream", found in the Witch Tales book, evokes a city far off, a lone tree standing apart, a witch on the ground, and fire rising from below.
Hint #8 (Clock)
The arrows on the plaque and the notes from the felt boards show how to align the dials to open the clock.
Hint #9
The symbols from each of the felt board notes and the plaque can be found on the clock. The numbers are a clue to the correct positions of those symbols.
Hint #10
One of the pages in the book "Rituals of the Sacred Order of the Sphere" shows how some symbols relate to each other.
Hint #11
Clues to how the symbols relate to one another are scattered throughout Anna’s research — some among the felt board notes, others in her sketchbook, and the rest within the rituals she studied.
Hint #12
The diagram in the Rituals book suggests that some symbols must be positioned directly opposite one another, while the broken lines mark pairs that should not be adjacent.
