    This:
    It's a classic math puzzle: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verbal_arithmetic

    If you talk to Valiant Hart, he gives you a clue that's something like, "I only know how to do arithmetic with numbers, not with letters!" This implies that it's a math puzzle.

    I got the SWORD + SWORD = DAGGER on my game, but I saw the THAUM + ATURG = METEOR in this thread and had to solve it too. Magnesium02's solution is correct. The THAUM+ATURG one was a lot harder.

    I hope they have more quests like this. The way they made it so that different people get different puzzles was brilliant.

    Horizon. Head to Vesper Bay and you'll find it along the way.

    I've never even heard of a math puzzle like this before, so I was highly confused looking at hints how it's even possible for it to be a math puzzle, where do you get all the numbers from, and just how does one get to SWORDAGE from the original, etc.

    I can kinda understand how it works after looking it up, but then again kinda don't. Good to have people smarter than me on math around.
