The Test Mechanics

The location of the spirit of Khonsu changes each time a player finds it, and at 6 AM every game day. The spirit of Khonsu can be found anywhere in Egypt except over water. The spirit of Khonsu doesn't have any audio or visual indicators to its location. To start the search for Khonsu, a player must perform a ritual at a common altar. Upon successful completion of the ritual, player receives a fly away message: Khonsu has taken notice of your devotion.
Once a player had the attention of Khonsu, the player lights a candle to honor Khonsu. Lighting a candle is performed though the test menu. After a few minutes, the player receives a message: A gentle wind blows to the (North, Northwest, West, Southwest, South, Southeast, East, or Northeast).
When a player is within 500 coords of Khonsu's location when lighting a candle, the player receives the flyaway message: A violent wind blows out your candle.
When a player lights a candle within 100 coords of Khonsu's location, player will receive the flyaway message: An aura surrounds your candle as Khonsu smiles upon you.
When a player lights a candle withing 50 coords of Khonu's location, players will receive the flyaway message: You feel the warmth of Khonsu's spirit nearby.
