Yes, absolutely! Sorry, I didn't mean to imply otherwise. I was just meant that Elethamei had specifically mentioned that they had emailed with a number. Hopefully we'll find out either way soon.

I've had a couple of emails back and forth, in one of which I apologised for getting carried away and thanked him for his encouragement. I said I would try and approach the puzzle from a different angle. His reply:

We all need encouragement sometimes. On your own, you can do nothing.


So we need to band together. It strikes me that nobody actually submitted 12 as their favourite number. Am I right? If so, we might need somebody to do so so that we can fill in the blanks and hopefully complete the puzze. Maybe that's why you got the 11,12,13 message (as we had people submit both 11 and 13)?

EDIT: Further information via Twitter. I asked if people who had already contacted him could supply another number or if we needed somebody new. The reply:

Quote:
Neither will help you now - I am constrained from releasing this information to you again. Find the original '12'.


It was you asking about my number on twitter? Smile

 		Confused...
I'm confused.... if the Servant already has the book, what does he need us for? Confused

I'm thinking we'll have to help decipher the clues in the book, though he kinda seems like the clever sort........

Thanks Elethamei!

Here's the completed story:

Quote:
1. Millennia ago an ancient evil rose from
2. the depths of Earth to enslave its
3. population of proto-human inhabitants. In order to
4. destroy this evil entity thirteen warlocks formed
5. a conclave by which to banish the
6. evil from existence. From among their ranks
7. they chose one to lead them – the
8. Master of Twelve. This group, combining their
9. power, managed to defeat this ancient evil.
10. However, unable to destroy him, he was
11. bound beneath the Earth. The Master of
12. Twelve having prophesised that some day this
13. evil will find strength to overcome the
14. power which binds it, used the last
15. of his strength to travel across time
16. scanning the long life of the Earth.
17. He scattered the number twelve throughout the
18. history of human religion, art and culture,
19. as clues to his existence, and placed
20. twelve portals across the Earth These portals
21. may be activated, although no-one knows how.
22. Once activated, these portals channel power into
23. the magic which binds this ancient evil,
24. preventing him from rising once more. The
25. portals will remain active for one year.
26. Knowing that there are those who would
27. serve this ancient evil, The Master of
28. Twelve hid the information about each of
29. the portals, and how to activate them,
30. in an ancient book: 'The Duodecad' This
31. book not only provides clues towards the
32. position and nature of each portal, but
33. also points to the date on which
34. this ancient evil will seek to rise
35. again. Those who would prevent this evil
36. from rising are powerless until 'The Duodecad'
37. is found. That is until now. I
38. have it.

No worries, I'm rubbish at the clever stuff so typing's about the limit of my helping out ability here!

Is that really all there was to it? Putting the pieces together? Hmmmmm

 		I got a response as well, but I fear I was too late to get any parts to contribute. Here's all that came from mine:

A good choice, and significant at this particular time. As well you know.

Unfortunately, there are those who would undo all that we are seeking to achieve. They are preventing me from revealing the required information.

You must find the original '12'.

I don't know if its still possible to offer my help, but I would offer it if it is still desired.

My favorite number is 12. A lucky number like 7, but more subtle and less noticed. Also mathematically one of the easier numbers to work with in the first set of 20.


I sent him back a response asking for more information, but I don't think the character's gonna bite. I'll just have to be faster next time.
