Masteria Expansions, Names and the proof for each

Sadly, there's no answer for that yet. NxProse told us that it was a "riddle which could not yet be solved", but he also advised us to go ahead and start working on it. Around the time of NLC's release there were a lot of speculation threads but no one ever figured it out. Even if someone did get it right, there's no way to confirm it since we haven't had the necessary expansion yet. Presumably, the upcoming expansion will enable this riddle to be solved.

Some interesting things that may help speculation:
The NPCs have the names Sunstone Grave, Moonstone Grave, and Tombstone. Sun glows red, Moon glows blue, and Tomb glows an evil black-red color.

All three of the graves' text are "Scripts". Scripts are special kinds of text because it means what they say isn't stored in the data, but on the servers. What this usually means is that it will react and say different things to certain changes (For example, in one of the Area Boss quests, there are NPCs which will only enable you to continue if you visit them at certain times of Day.) The same is true of the Headless Horseman's tombstone at the Mansion. It could also react to ownership of items and a myriad of other things. I have tried to see if the numbers given on the tombstones have any relationship to time or whatever, but to no avail.

I am 100% confident that Crimsonwood Keep will be released... That doesn't mean I'm right, but I believe the facts of the matter are indisputable. A quick mention, though, is that on the FTP where the images of the masteria expansion were salvaged, was a group of NPC names, which were supposedly from the "raven ninja clan." If I had to guess, I would say the Ravens are the good guys, and act as NPCs, while the Dragons are the bad guys, and act as monsters. It's possible that the Dragon Ninja Clan Sanctum could be released as well. I think Krakia will be the next big Masteria update after this one, though. Possibly next Thanksgiving? who knows. It would be great if the Thanksgiving patch wasn't a complete letdown for once.
