I've had a brief look at the Greek, Norse and Egyptian Gods to see if there was any correlation between the symbols on the medallions and the statues, but nothing jumped out at me. I have also reviewed the information we have about Arathia and a couple of things came up:
Of the orders of knights in Krieghold, there are 7 most well known:
Rose, Spring, Quill, Dragon, Golden Thread, Ashen Order, Coin
I think at some point, the Emperor may also have been mentioned as being considered a knight, bringing the total to 8. Though that may have just been musings between me and our awesome GM.
There are also 8 'common' races to Arathia:
Human, Elf, Dwarf, Halflings, Half-Elves, Half-Orcs, Half-Dwarf, Ogres
If we're talking about the kingdom, it maybe that each is represented, but I do not know how they correlate if that is the case.
Otherwise, if we just go with the statues and medallions, the pairings might be something like:
Knight > Rose
Mage > Book / Jester
Woodland figure > Unicorn
Ogre > Ship (?)
Elf > Unicorn/Eye
Priest > Quill
Demon > Jester
Angel > Scales/Eye
/shrug
There could be 8 directions on a compass: N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW
Could the order that the GM told us the information be important?
Words on the mirrors: (1) inspire, (2) the, (3) by, (4) lead, (5) kingdom, (6) example, (7) to, (8) entire
If I got it right, rearrange to: (4) lead (3) by (6) example (7) to (1) inspire (2) the (8) entire (5) Kingdom
Statues: (1) a knight in plate, (2) a mage in robes, (3) a figure in woodland garb, (4) an ogre with a maul, (5) an elf with a bow, (6) a priest with extended, (7) a demon, and (8) an angel
Using the rearranged order of the mirror words, could become: Ogre, Woodland Figure, Priest, Demon, Knight, Mage, Angel, Elf
For the medallions we get:
Rose, quill, eye, book, jester, scales, unicorn, ship
There's probably a million other things that I could have tried that I haven't even thought of as well. Its really annoying because I feel like the answer is staring me in the face and should be very simple, but I'm just incapable of tying everything together.
