The Neggery: A Simple Exchange? Or Undercover Act?

by blueberry13579

ICE CAVES - Hey fellow Neopians, long time no talk! As you may have noticed, my work in the times was absent for about two or three months and has only returned recently. When I returned to Neopia, I found things to be very different, new worlds, Neopets, and petpets, not to mention games and all sorts of other little goodies to keep us occupied. But one thing my watchful gaze realised was something I’ve come to believe many Neopians over look--The Neggery. Yes that’s right folks! The simple place where you can exchange you simple neggs for points, and those points can be exchanged for rare and useful neggs. But have you ever wondered what happens to your neggs once you turn them in? The Negg Faerie just walks away with the negg and hands you a few tokens. This people, is what has been bothering me and I’ve just gotta get it out of my system!!

The Negg Faerie was reluctant to answer any of my questions as to what she does with the neggs. But for being such a pest, I received a brown negg in the face. So could that be what the neggs are used for? Some kind of special substance that’s put into the weapons we give our Neopets to help defend themselves in the Battledome?! Maybe, but probably not, partly because the Negg Faerie would have to have many enslaved Neopets working around the clock to purchase the weapons and then infest them with the negg pieces and juice. So theory number one goes out the window like many a rotten negg.

But have you ever wondered why you’re not allowed past that front desk? Why is that such a big secret, if you even mention the “Back Room” you get a negg in the face, quite a waste don’t you think? So have you ever wondered how the Snowager keeps his supplies stocked up to the max, not to mention how half of the goodies in his cave are neggs, all able to be bought, traded for negg points, or in some way related to the Neggery! So maybe that’s what happens to our neggs. The Negg Faerie has some kind of under the table trading going on. She supplies the Snowager with all the neggs he wants, and in return she doesn’t get turned into the main course with a rainbow negg on the side. This theory, has no downside, so it may well be the answer we’re looking for.

So what came first, the Peadackle or the Negg? I know Peadackles don’t lay neggs, but they've gotta come from somewhere right? Another clue: Maybe The Negg Faerie uses the neggs we turn in, to grow new neggs! So she’s probably got her little underground field where she can plant the stalks of the neggs she receives, and they grow into new neggs that can be distributed all throughout Neopia!! This theory is relatively reasonable, considering neggs are usually found by random events and almost all are very rare.

What about the neggs we can buy with our negg points? Again, a very good question eh? Where do these neggs come from and how do they give your Neopets the abilities, looks, intelligence, items, or colours that they do? There has to be a way for the Negg Faerie to create all these neggs and keep them at a relative stock for the millions of Neopians dropping into the Neggery each day. So how does she do it? Take the Genius Negg for instance, it looks almost lifelike. With the glasses and the stalk looking just like hair! So what’s in this negg that makes your Neopet so intelligent? I guess you could call this negg is food for thought! And what about the neggs that magically give you an item? That item just magically appears out of thin air and then your priceless negg is gone forever!!

So in conclusion, The Negg Faerie is either a lot more magical then we give her credit for, or she’s got a lot of Neopets working their behinds off to get the job done! Well believe my theories or not, this Neggery business is one of the biggest questions to ever bother my simple little brain. So I’ll leave you with the theories of an average Neopian, with a BIG question. Simple or Sinister? Muhahahaha!! *Cough*
