To solve this puzzle, you need to find repeating patterns on the wall. If you consider the wall a 31 across and 20 down you get the following coordinates to follow from left to right forming a serpent using the head icons.
I will give the coord with column, row.
Series 1
1,6
Series 2 (all made up of the same head)
2,6
3,6
3,7
3,8
3,9
4,9
4,8
5,8
Series 3
6,8
Series 4
6,9
7,9
7,10
7,11
8,11
8,10
9, 10
10,10
Series 5
10,11
10,12
11,12
11,13
11,14
12,14
12,13
13,13
13,12
13,11
13,10
14,10
14,11
15,11
Series 6
15,12
15,13
16,13
17,13
17,12
18,12
Series 7
18,13
18,14
18,15
19,15
20,15
Series 8
20,14
Series 9
20,13
20,12
20,11
21,11
21,10
22,10
22,9
23,9
Series 10
23,10
24, 10
24, 11
24, 12
25, 12
25, 11
26, 11
26, 10
27, 10
28, 10
28,11
28, 12
27, 12
27, 13
27, 14
28, 14
28, 15
29, 15
29, 14
30, 14
30, 13
30, 12
31, 12
Now if you count the number in each section you get
Series 1 = 1
" 2 = 8
" 3 = 1
" 4 = 8
" 5 = 14
" 6 = 6
" 7 = 5
" 8 = 1
" 9 = 8
" 10 = 23
From these numbers we can derive the coordinates.
The first four coordinates are the first four series numbers:
1818
The fifth series number refers to the direction N (n=14, see below)
The next coords are 6518
The last series number refers to the direction W (w=23)
Therefore,
1818N6518W
a=1
b=2
c=3
d=4
e=5
f=6
g=7
h=8
i=9
j=10
k=11
l=12
m=13
n=14
o=15
p=16
q=17
r=18
s=19
t=20
u=21
v=22
w=23
x=24
y=25
z=26

hmmm after my eyes got situated on the pic on the wall i began to see a re-occuring pattern of a serpent going across the wall. first to the north of the wall. then to the west of the wall. it takes a while to focus your eyes. but i brightened up my screen to see more clearly. whew glad it is over. man it was a stumper.

Coordinates? Are you planning an attack? Should we warn them?
