Hover over the clues if you require!
Clue 1: 'Never Eat Soggy Wheat'. Does that sound familiar in any way? Or perhaps some of the letters?
Clue 2: See BMN02, as said. Which corresponds to which direction?
Clue 3: See the Zodiac Files if you need to.
Answer and Explanation
Answer: Alfheim Nightmarch Olympus Avalon
Explanation: The first letters of each word is a direction, which gives “NESW”. In BMN02, each direction has a description, which fits a location. North is Alfheim, for Huginn and Muginn. East is Nightmarch, for Mario (the Princess and the Toad - get it?) was made in Japan. South is Olympus, for Leda and the Swan. West is Avalon, for the Crows of the Tower of London.
Summary of Receipt
161 manages to, very briefly, obtain Third Sight while being aided by Miss. Bad in order to pass along another of her Bad Omens (heh). She showed 161 a vision of the Otherworld's Planes, then those Planes being reflected in four keys: one red, one yellow, one green and one blue. There was a sandy tomb door which the keys fit into, and then Bad commanded her - and the CaD - to seek the realms' keys in order to unearth the secrets in The End.

oooooooooooo.
ooOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
I THINK I DID! or well sort of kind of did it. i did SOMETHING thats for sure! i saw into the otherworld!!!! THIRD SIGHT LETS GOOOO BABY!!!!! okay maybe it wasnt exactly one hundred percent my own doing. i think miss. bad sort of hijacked me to pass along another of her bad omens but a win is a win right? so what exactly did that crazy triple crow show me? well...
i definitly saw a small glimpse into each of the four otherworld planes. there was like beautiful green islands full of apple trees (avalon) a parade full of rowdy yokai (nightmarch) a hugeeee mountain a raging sea and a whole twisting turning underground cavern system next to a river (olympus) and then like a whole bunch of smaller places seperated by a wild blizzard, there were like ten of them but it focused on a forest full of larpers (alfheim).
then i saw the planes again but this time they were only reflections in four shimmering keys, one yellow key, one red key, one blue key, and one green key. and then those keys went into a big lock on this like sandy tomb door and then the door opened and the voice of miss. bad rang out in my ears SUPER LOUD BTW "seek the keys through the realms, by shadows haunted, unearth the secrets long enchanted, open wide the chamber door in and at...
THE END!
then the vision collapsed like a book closing and WOWOWOOW that was a crazy sweaty wild vision to have at 6 a.m. while i doubt i could do that again on my own... it does mean its at least possible to do. so im gonna keep trying until i can peep it on my own. just when i had given up the morrigan pulls me right back in. oh welllll. if it was easy it wouldnt be worth doing or whatever zero says.
