TL;DR use the bot to get the flag
[Kingdom Chall](https://discord.gg/fHHyU6g)
### Solution 1
Starting out, we clicked the link to [Kingdom Chall](https://discord.gg/fHHyU6g), and joined the discord. There, we identified a long stream of other people joining, as well as a bot account named `Gandalf`. `Gandalf`'s status reads:
> You're welcome~ Free reveals with command: $reveal_secret (channel.id) (message.id)
Obviously, we need to test this:
```lyellread$reveal_secret 688190172793536545 691089964401819759Gandalf [BOT]@everyone say hello to @Gandalf !```
Great! Looks like `Gandalf` will be our oracle for any messages that we have ID's for but cannot read ourselves. What's next?
Someone had a plugin enabled that saw there was a hidden channel on the Discord, with ID `688190289814618213`, with name `hidden-round-table`. We would have found this in our API search below, but this helped refine where we were headed wiht `Gandalf` and the API.
Now onto that hint: The challenge name is "Against the Perfect discord Inquisitor" - that makes acronym "API"... I know where this is going. We need to make some API request to get some information.
After quite a bit of looking (Discord, your docs suck big time!!), we came up with [this script](discord_bot.py) which will make a `GET` request to the API. We needed a token, too, and thankfully, GitHub user Tyrrrz provides [this guide](https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter/wiki/Obtaining-Token-and-Channel-IDs) to getting tokens and channel (and message and guild) ID's. Now we can work with that. We tried:- `/api/v6/channel/688190172793536545/messages`: returns all the messages - nothing new, as we can read all messages in that channel.- `/api/v6/channel/688190289814618213/messages`: returns not authorized to view messages in hidden channel - no suprise there.- `/api/v6/guilds/688190172793536536`: returns much of what we already knew about this guild- `/api/v6/guilds/688190172793536536/channels`: ```json[{"id": "688190172793536539", "type": 4, "name": "Kingdom", "position": 0, "parent_id": null, "guild_id": "688190172793536536", "permission_overwrites": [], "nsfw": false}, {"id": "688190172793536545", "last_message_id": "691368465201758319", "type": 0, "name": "tavern", "position": 0, "parent_id": "688190172793536539", "topic": "A place of business where people gather to drink alcoholic beverages and be served food, and in most cases, where travelers receive lodging.", "guild_id": "688190172793536536", "permission_overwrites": [{"id": "688190172793536536", "type": "role", "allow": 0, "deny": 2048}], "nsfw": false, "rate_limit_per_user": 0}, 
{"id": "688190289814618213", "last_message_id": "688214063595258088", "type": 0, "name": "hidden-round-table", "position": 1, "parent_id": "688190172793536539", "topic": "F#{The_Table_of_King_Arthur}", "guild_id": "688190172793536536", "permission_overwrites": [{"id": "688190172793536536", "type": "role", "allow": 0, "deny": 3072}, {"id": "688190424124227590", "type": "role", "allow": 3072, "deny": 0}], "nsfw": false, "rate_limit_per_user": 0}]```
That's the first flag! `F#{The_Table_of_King_Arthur}` - the description of `#hidden_round_table`! Now onto the next one...
### Solution 2
We have not even used `Gandalf` yet, so we will need to. The output above tells us something interesting (and exactly what we need to use `Gandalf`) - the last message id in `#hidden_round_table`: `688214063595258088`. Now we can ask our "Mage" `Gandalf` about this:
```lyellread$reveal_secret 688190289814618213 688214063595258088Gandalf [BOT] RiN7UzRiM1JfMTVfVGgzX0sxbmdfQXJ0aHVyfQ==```
That looks like base64... One sec, [we can fix that](https://www.base64decode.org/), and we get `F#{S4b3R_15_Th3_K1ng_Arthur}`!
Thank you Fireshell Team and @K4L1!!
