Wlaad's Weekly Wog!
This week's puzzle:
Kyrre was in trouble!
She had to get at least one legendary Sylvan Centaur, but the time was running out! She had only 3 days left, but she made it!
Nowadays she admits she was lucky, though... The fastest ranger was standing there on the river bank, with just some wild Griffins that had joined her before. She had even spent all her spell points!
How did she do it? 
(The winner is the poster who explains how it was possible, step by step! The winner gets a cookie.  )

I would say she visited the green monolith from which she got fly or water walk and during the second day (movement points restored) she manages to reach the sylvan dwelling with additional movement points thanks to her logistics specialty.
Donīt know how she would have got away from there, though..

my guess...
...although it is pretty wild, but still my guess...
As I do not exactly what a market of time does and I am not quite used to ERM scripts (although tried some of them), it is quite hard for me to guess... still.
I say that Kyrre probably defeated the peasants and reached for the experience box. There, she gained one level and got a few spell points added to her spell point total. Then, as she had some of the movement points left, reached for the obelisk or the market of time where she, as greek_god_superman guessed (i agree), learned water walk/fly as I doubt dimension dor can be added .
Anyway, she crossed the water by using a spell, thus using all of her spell points and reached for the sapphire which is (?) probably supposed to give extra spell points and next turn she cast the spell again and reached the dwelling.
Another guess would be that she got over the water by simply walking over as the map is probably heavily modified (it is just a guess ). Then, she reached for that thing which I think is called the summoning stone, where she probably got reinforcements. Then she reached for the knights and vanquished them (dunno) and opened the chest nearby where she probably found an artifact which allows the hero to board/quit the ship without penalties (in h4, there is one - sea captain's hat, if i recall correctly) and reach the dwelling...
P.S. If someone told me what market of time does and what is the use of that sapphire-clad-in-gold (which is undoubtedly from h4 ), I would probably re-think my guess
But anyway, these could be wild guesses only as there can be hell lot of scripts implemented. If there were none or only one included, it wouldn't be much easier, but the guess would not be 'purely imagined'

Simple!
On first day, she kicked death knight's ass(she's got gryphons and there isn't said, that death knights are many... )and getted into ship...
On second day she went with ship to cost, where dwelling is...
On third day she getted her sylvan centaur!

i would say that on the first say, she defeated the peasants and got royal griffins from the chest, which increases movment, then she went close to the obelisk.
next turn she: goes to obelisk and gets DD, thus getting to the creatures, but i dont think that will happen
so
she gets fly. she flies and picks up the mythril then come back to the obelisk. she makes some magic grounds (does that mean all spells cast at are expert?) so now she uses fly from the obelisk and with exp fly, royal griffins and log spec she gets the centaur
then she realises she doesnt have enough money
well thats my explanation. sounds good to me

Hm....
As you said the first part of Lord_pc's post was right, I would guess the hero got WATER WALK (as there is a mushroom that gives expert water magic for a few days) and went for the mushroom. Right?
or got some more griffinhs to join her and attacked the black knights
anyway, what is teh use of the market of time?!

she gets water walk or fly then flies just short of the slyvan thing, next day she gets to the thingy
with the log spec she should get there

The obelisk part is correct, but she wouldn't have enough movement to reach the Sylvan dwelling in the same turn...

A good idea, but the problem is the spell from the obelisk would wear off once it is used. Thus, when Kyrre reaches the mushroom, she won't have Fly anymore...
So far, greek_god_superman (who first guessed what's the obelisk for) and Lord_Pc (who thought of getting Royal Griffins from the chest) are the closest to getting the cookie.

Well my guess is she got to the monolith, fly/waterwalk to the opposite bank. Next day, spell point replenish abit, walk abit upwards and cast summon ship, get in. Last day try to land exactly at a spot where you can hire centuar and press spacebar.

Interesting... but she wouldn't land exactly on that spot - take another look at the picture. By the way, I think it's impossible anyway.
(Off topic, it's so strange to see somebody else using my old avatar. )
OK, you got the Royal Griffins and you flew over the river. What then?

continuation...
if so, two turns left... (i think)... maybe she takes the mithril or walks near that stone of some kind (why do I seem to think it is the summoning stone)... or does both.
Still, even though she does that, it is a mystery how can she get to the dwelling... There may be a passage somewhere between the woods...
I seriously doubt she would reach for the mushroom, as, as vlaad said, the spell wears off... Hmmm....

she gets water walk and walks over as far up the river as possible, on the side with the mythril. then she waits. day 3 comes around and with out little friend, mr water walk, she walks over the centaur place

Well... here's my part:
you defeated the peaseants, got the royal griffins, visited the obelisk that gives summon boat and got on the boat
on the second day she went to the other side near the sylvan bilding
onthe third day she bought the centaurs
...anyway I think it's to simple to be true, so I have to study it some more until I get it right.
