AriusXI (9:54:30 PM): He is feeling ill, and as I am quite young, it will be long before I take full charge. AriusXI (9:55:44 PM): His energy has dropped sufficiently, as many things happen here to the people we love. AriusXI (9:56:23 PM): I am quite well, and very excited to try this electronic means of communicating. AriusXI (9:56:42 PM): No, and Caine is also missing now as well. <-- in reference to has there been any word on Anna's whereabouts AriusXI (9:57:02 PM): My brother Sladius was last to speak with him. Teri1068 (9:57:09 PM): did they go missing at the same time Teri1068 (9:57:24 PM): what did they say? AriusXI (9:57:40 PM): No, first it was Caine, he spoke of trying to break the barriers in order to leave. Teri1068 (9:57:42 PM): did Sladius tell you/ AriusXI (9:58:09 PM): Yes. Sladius had a very cruel joke played on him that day. Teri1068 (9:58:22 PM): what was that? AriusXI (9:58:26 PM): He was embarrased in front of his classmates, and very upset. AriusXI (9:58:50 PM): It was over a question he answered wrong on a test. MountainGirlXD (9:59:11 PM): What was the question? AriusXI (10:00:29 PM): It was referencing the meaning of Herbs, and where Rosemary was used also for Love, he said protection, and well, love, protection, you can see. AriusXI (10:01:32 PM): Don't get me wrong, Caine is actually a very skilled and intelligent person, AriusXI (10:01:48 PM): he can be cruel sometimes, AriusXI (10:02:01 PM): but he is our brother also. AriusXI (10:02:49 PM): Caine can be trusted to a certain degree, as I am sure everyone can. AriusXI (10:03:07 PM): He was born in a city called Los Angeles. AriusXI (10:03:23 PM): His mother was very skilled in magic, AriusXI (10:03:38 PM): and she managed to open a portal to Gatewood. AriusXI (10:03:51 PM): Father thought she may be able to save us, AriusXI (10:04:08 PM): for when the curse ends, we die. AriusXI (10:04:28 PM): Yes, Gatewood was a city long ago. MountainGirlXD (10:05:55 PM): Why does Caine warn against the reawakening? AriusXI (10:06:38 PM): Father wishes to raise the Great Wolf, not the Chaotic One. AriusXI (10:06:51 PM): Caine seems to think otherwise. AriusXI (10:07:44 PM): Athena's death is believed to have been a sacrifice, but Father Enoch was with 55 students at the time of her death. MountainGirlXD (10:07:09 PM): Who is this "Great Wolf?" AriusXI (10:08:00 PM): The Great Wolf is the creator of man. AriusXI (10:08:24 PM): Caine is still very angry, and doesn't trust many. AriusXI (10:08:37 PM): Creator... Creativity. AriusXI (10:08:52 PM): It was his greatest work of Art. MountainGirlXD (10:08:53 PM): What I mean is, does he have a name? MountainGirlXD (10:09:04 PM): other than The Great Wolf AriusXI (10:10:00 PM): We refer to him simply as Him, but also the Great One to avoid confusion, as his true name is difficult to pronounce and cannot so easily be written in english. AngryBanana1125 (10:10:43 PM): I am more worried about Sladius and Anna AriusXI (10:12:28 PM): Yes as am I. The day that Anna dissappeared she cried out something about a demon, but we do not believe in those Christian gods. MountainGirlXD (10:12:14 PM): Brother Arius, What do you know of the first page? AriusXI (10:12:57 PM): I do not know anything about the pages, except they can free us, as well as destroy. AriusXI (10:13:41 PM): They also are a historical account of those throughout time who tried to bring about the inadkkla. AriusXI (10:14:16 PM): Evel "deities", there is only the Chaotic One. AriusXI (10:14:48 PM): inadkkla is the last destruction. AriusXI (10:15:23 PM): Well, drugs can heal or harm, as can doctors, am I wrong? AngryBanana1125 (10:15:42 PM): yes, we have seen many chemical references AriusXI (10:16:06 PM): Seen? AngryBanana1125 (10:16:13 PM): yes AriusXI (10:16:28 PM): Please explain. AngryBanana1125 (10:17:10 PM): well, in documents - there have been many chemical references - yet the chemicals are not to be found... AriusXI (10:17:55 PM): Hmmm... I must not have heard of these documents you speak of, but I do know a bit of Chemistry. AngryBanana1125 (10:18:01 PM): methalycene AngryBanana1125 (10:18:12 PM): have you heard of it before? AriusXI (10:18:14 PM): What? Where did you hear this?? AriusXI (10:18:22 PM): Who spoke of it? AriusXI (10:18:46 PM): Has someone been trying to utilize it again? tipsila 1 (10:18:47 PM): David Anderson AriusXI (10:19:36 PM): Anderson... I do not know him. Methalycene was something that a very evil man was said to create, AriusXI (10:19:53 PM): to physically manipulate humans. AriusXI (10:20:51 PM): That evil man wanted so much to become the Great One. He even called himself such a name, and he wanted the Great One's strength as well. AriusXI (10:21:26 PM): This chemical would have made it posswible, had it not been for the American army. AriusXI (10:22:24 PM): Beyond a mere being. methaLYCene... in it contains its purpose. AriusXI (10:22:35 PM): Let me tell you a story... tipsila 1 (10:25:23 PM): are you sure that methalycene isn't spelled differently? perhaps methylysine? AriusXI (10:26:42 PM): i am sure. Would you like to know how Gatewood came to be? AriusXI (10:27:29 PM): In 1587, men, women, and children became one of the earliest attempts to colonize the new world - America. Thier leader had a very sick mother overseas, and had to return to her. When he came back to the new world, his people had AriusXI (10:28:16 PM): vanished. The leader, had dabbled into occult before, and read one of these pages aloud. AriusXI (10:28:58 PM): Because it was read, it awoke the Chaotic, and helped even worse events transpire. AriusXI (10:29:06 PM): If we do not get the pages, AriusXI (10:29:39 PM): The dark one will not be so quick to leave no blood. AriusXI (10:30:06 PM): The dark one left a message. AriusXI (10:32:39 PM): the message was "croatkjaa", which is believed to be the dark one's name in english. AriusXI (10:32:54 PM): when that name is found again, AriusXI (10:33:08 PM): the last destruction will be at hand. AriusXI (10:33:16 PM): it is much like your 666. AngryBanana1125 (10:33:29 PM): like caineVIVIVI AriusXI (10:33:56 PM): Very interesting that he chose that name. He wanted to insult you. AriusXI (10:36:16 PM): We do not believe that the Wolf would SEND us to a place of eternal ishment. AriusXI (10:36:29 PM): If he is not evil, why would he? AriusXI (10:37:02 PM): You said you heard of Methalycene through a person named Anderson? AriusXI (10:37:56 PM): It just came to mind. I feel like there's something about that name, but not the first name. AriusXI (10:40:45 PM): I just had a sensation... AriusXI (10:40:56 PM): Nancy Anderson... AriusXI (10:41:09 PM): I guess I should look more into that name. Anetopalis (10:43:01 PM): Arius, as per Gatewood's request, we have, as a group, been working on this little puzzle. However, I am a bit curious about Gatewood's intent. May I ask what these pages are, exactly, and what you plan to accomplish with them? AriusXI (10:44:03 PM): To re-seal the arrival of the Chaotic. A binding must be placed upon him once again. Anetopalis (10:44:16 PM): So you want to stop the arrival of this god, not summon it? AriusXI (10:44:22 PM): Exactly. AriusXI (10:44:30 PM): But I fear a dark entity, AriusXI (10:45:09 PM): one who has been killing our brothers and sisters, has access to Gatewood, as well as the outside world. AriusXI (10:56:29 PM): The nazis wanted to harness the power of the Great One. AriusXI (10:59:19 PM): We have couriers, messengers, trustees of Gatewood. AriusXI (10:59:34 PM): We are delivered many supplies, clothing and other goods. AriusXI (10:59:41 PM): We are trapped here for now. AriusXI (11:00:02 PM): You seem to have the gift. AriusXI (11:00:31 PM): This is simply an extention of non living matter, the internet, that is. AriusXI (11:01:10 PM): Non living matter can pass through, as well as people who have been initiated who were not previously here. AriusXI (11:01:43 PM): Yes, you have abilities to see within language, secret messages. AriusXI (11:02:26 PM): They are distant blood of Father Enoch, as his family was cursed. AriusXI (11:03:02 PM): It is only through bloodline that the curse spreads. AriusXI (11:03:59 PM): Caine is a rare exception, which I don't quite understand yet. He said that he told outsiders about the situation, but I dont speak to him much. MountainGirlXD (11:03:03 PM): Where is Gatewood? AriusXI (11:04:31 PM): Gatewood is located in the old city AriusXI (11:04:58 PM): We are loooking for everyone who is missing, AriusXI (11:05:32 PM): as we care much for our brothers. But we do not possess the tools, and divination can take time. AriusXI (11:06:02 PM): I am suspicious of metal rings in peoples faces. AriusXI (11:10:10 PM): It was a figure of speech, it is strange to me. AriusXI (11:07:55 PM): We only wish for our family to suffer no more and do what we can in return for the outsiders. AriusXI (11:08:06 PM): I'm sorry.... people outside of Gatewood. AriusXI (11:10:30 PM): There are 13 buildings - AriusXI (11:10:43 PM): XIII is Father's quarters, AriusXI (11:11:01 PM): XI, which I learn in, is for our age group. AriusXI (11:11:13 PM): It works on a scale of education, AriusXI (11:11:23 PM): Like grades. AriusXI (11:11:36 PM): They are mainly for teaching, AriusXI (11:11:51 PM): as our living spaces are not numbered. AriusXI (11:12:02 PM): Yes, Enoch is the oldest. AriusXI (11:12:32 PM): As far as Anna's whereabouts, AriusXI (11:12:50 PM): Yes, it is obvious we should physically look, AriusXI (11:13:15 PM): but there are many powers beyond your understanding that lie in the world. AriusXI (11:13:34 PM): You refer to them as "mysteries" or the "unexplained". AriusXI (11:15:44 PM): You should beware of any entities in your search, AriusXI (11:16:08 PM): as what happened to Athena is still is great question. AriusXI (11:16:51 PM): We do not believe that any one of our family is capable of such a malicious act, AriusXI (11:17:12 PM): but also, it is without knowledge that I tell you this. AriusXI (11:18:01 PM): And this entity or what you wish to call it must be stopped. AriusXI (11:18:12 PM): We wonder if it is not part of the curse, AriusXI (11:18:48 PM): but also we think it may be someone who knows how our rituals work, possibly performing one. AriusXI (11:20:09 PM): The curse is like being tied up, your soul bound. I am not sure if Caine is cursed or not, as there is a thin line between the outside and our referring to him as family. AriusXI (11:22:38 PM): Tomorrow we will be having a wonderful meal, to help us deal with the recent loss; AriusXI (11:22:57 PM): and a ritual of thanks to Him. ipsila 1 (11:23:16 PM): what type of food? anything special? AriusXI (11:24:04 PM): I believe it will be artichokes, cucumber, potatoes, and radishes. AriusXI (11:24:11 PM): Oh how I love radishes. AriusXI (11:24:22 PM): Especially fresh ones. AriusXI (11:24:51 PM): Yes, there is very little that we can harvest here before we need food from a courier. AriusXI (11:25:06 PM): I have grown to be quite fond of the radish. Anetopalis (11:25:07 PM): So how is this meal special? AriusXI (11:25:59 PM): Is that a serious question? All you have to do is look into the sky. Anetopalis (11:26:07 PM): Let me rephrase that Anetopalis (11:26:12 PM): What about the meal itself is special? Anetopalis (11:26:16 PM): I can understand why the night would be AriusXI (11:26:49 PM): Every cycle is important. AriusXI (11:26:55 PM): Especially this one. AriusXI (11:26:57 PM): Please excuse me for one moment, my tea is boiling. AriusXI (11:27:04 PM): I will be right back Anetopalis (11:33:15 PM): Do you believe that Caine is following in the Nazi's footsteps, in trying to harness the wolf? AriusXI (11:34:11 PM): Caine knows of the sadness that great losses bring, I don't believe he would follow a man as destructive as the nazi leader. Anetopalis (11:34:23 PM): Then what are his intentions? AriusXI (11:35:22 PM): He is very confusing to me. When he was younger, AriusXI (11:35:36 PM): he brought new ideas to the community, AriusXI (11:35:58 PM): such as clothing, a sense of fashion, creativity, AriusXI (11:36:20 PM): and people thought he was just a misunderstood person, AriusXI (11:36:28 PM): but before these ideas worked, AriusXI (11:36:54 PM): everyone laughed at him, objected his ideas of change, even Enoch. AriusXI (11:37:12 PM): I don't know wether his intentions are just premature, AriusXI (11:37:40 PM): the brinks of a revolutionary idea, AriusXI (11:38:44 PM): (or) if they ar(e) something of a nature that we should definitley fear. AriusXI (11:40:04 PM): It is e(x)act (t)houghts such as h(i)s that are sometimes mis e(n)terpreted AriusXI (11:40:41 PM): There must be an error in this ma(c)hine. Maybe I should try to fix it... AriusXI (11:41:21 PM): father had a problem with h(i)s recently t(o)o. AriusXI (11:41:51 PM): I often wonder how some can think that these things are more capable than huma(n)s. Sylviaaaaaaaa (11:43:40 PM): the malfunction just sent a message "revolution or extinction" Sylviaaaaaaaa (11:43:50 PM): does that mean anything to you AriusXI (11:44:20 PM): One sounds bad, the other a bit worse. MountainGirlXD (11:44:25 PM): Caine said that, too MountainGirlXD (11:44:39 PM): "Revolution or Extinction" AriusXI (11:45:09 PM): I wonder if it is his strange manner of expression. AriusXI (11:46:30 PM): I would like to learn all of this during the next divination, but Father has been ill, which may limit our abilities. AriusXI (11:48:02 PM): Brother Nicolai, the eldest under Father, has some knowledge of physical health, but cannot seem to find a problem. AriusXI (11:48:20 PM): His body acts normal. AriusXI (11:48:48 PM): Except he says that he is very weak, and I can see his weakness in his eyes. AriusXI (11:49:27 PM): A person who is unable to perform regular tasks is apparently sick. MountainGirlXD (11:50:33 PM): Is there a copy of the text? AriusXI (11:50:53 PM): That is a very good question, AriusXI (11:51:25 PM): as far as what has been told by Enoch's relatives, what is written in journals and letters, AriusXI (11:51:50 PM): There were some copies made, but false ones, to ensure our safety. MountainGirlXD (11:53:17 PM): Were the incantations false as to keep people like Hitler from success in unleasing the Chaotic one? AriusXI (11:53:35 PM): I'm sorry. We are true family here, I should have said ancestors. I am sure all of this can get confusing. If someone were to use the book for deeds of destruction, the world would be at risk, because it can teach alot to humanity, AriusXI (11:54:58 PM): but so much has been lost over many centuries that need to be recovered. and yes, the book fortold of men like Hitler, several who would attempt to further destroy, AriusXI (11:55:28 PM): and the incantations that Hitler most likely performed was a AriusXI (11:56:02 PM): combination of information from the true pages and what he may have been able to fill in. AriusXI (11:56:18 PM): this is a theory that Father has brought to us. AriusXI (11:56:36 PM): He did not have all the elements to perform it, AriusXI (11:56:56 PM): so maybe he used some things as a sort of substitute. AriusXI (11:57:23 PM): Such things would make alot of consequences to go wrong. AriusXI (11:58:00 PM): Such as if you were to feed a horse something that is meant to fuel your lantern. It's time to choose a side in which to live or die It changes shape It changes shape It lights a path But has no flame Find Me and then Find It Your decision will bring Good or Evil The War has begun The War has begun The War has begun The War has begun The War has begun The War has begun The War has begun The War has begun
