What did you work out? The pictogram or the next level? The pictogram, what it related to, how to use it and where to put the result.

Yes, I think there are 2 puzzles it could be related to.

I got some help with this so I will pass it on: Check those last two words. Look for words that have homonyms. Reed, Pen These are not homonyms so I am still confused....

Reed, Pen These are not homonyms so I am still confused.... Reed is. Read I was mistaken on Pen. (which is a homonym as well ... writing implement or place to hold pigs). It is not a quill as I thought but a feather so my my guess should have taken me more in the Direction of what a bunch of feathers can make.

Ok, so if you stack the right titles, those of the issues, and read down, as per the pictogram, it gives you a web address. I suspect this is how we were meant to come by the sundial key but as of yet, I'm not sure what to make of it

As to what to make of it, my puzzle Silly Season (in the User Created Puzzles thread) actually relied on the same mechanism. There's a giant clue to what that mechanism is in the italicized words above the word clues I had in that post.

am I on the right track? thanks Afraid not! It will be mostly gibberish until the end, where it looks decidedly website-like. And by titles, you meant the issue titles, I take it?

I'm wondering the same thing, but I haven't figured out a way to make that work, so I'm starting to look further afield. I did work this out, if you need assistance. I wouldn't mind a little help. I have stacked the titles of the Volume 3 Issues But i cannot see anything

I can't see anything website like... Need coffee... after you have the titles stacked look at the first letter of each first word, then the first letter of each 2nd word, etc...
it will all look like gibberish until the last 6 letters. that is when you get a website like end.
