 		Am I missing something? I didn't notice anything within that photo.

Something I've been wondering...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I don't believe Dimitry was ever listed as dying. Is there some way we could contact him? Apparently he 'understood' this secret society.

 		I can't see anything in the photo either, but I thought there might be something hidden.

 		new e-mail sender
Just received this e-mail from someone by the name of "AG":

Quote:
Dear Voronika readers,

Aren't you a weird bunch. I've been following your discussions. So you've found poor Hopscotch Enthusiasts (I wonder if Voronika did?). You seem to understand the gravity of the situation. You talk about THEM cautiously.

Yet you still talk.

Curiosity killed the cat, but you're not cats. OK, I can appreciate that. Let's talk motivations then.

Why are you doing this? Do you want to save Voronika? Do you really think she wants you to save her? She doesn't give a rat's spit about you all.

Look up, someone's written "gullible" on the ceiling. Why are the symptoms of Voronika's scary lethal disease so chaotic and stereotypical? What exactly did doctors tell her before they've admitted she's incurable? Has she tried chemo? Psychoanalysis? Antibiotics?

How did she open the door that slammed shut in the first message? She lives in a remote cabin far away from anything after all. Why did she reply to my messages so quickly? If she's a whistleblower who wants to expose her father's organization, why do it under the rags, why the site? Why the naked girls that look like an artist's portfolio? Where's her proof?

Wake up, sheeple. Or something. You seem to have a certain amount of brainpower, so use it.

-AG

As Voronika so eloquently puts it, P. S. Yes, I've hacked the e-mail database. Don't worry, I'm not as self-centered as Voronika, so I won't leak it anywhere.

P. P. S. I'm so not-self-centered that I'll try once more. If any of you receives a parcel from one "Miraculous", don't open it. You're not cats, I get it, but don't. I'll buy you a candy or something.


Keep an eye out everyone, there was a link in the e-mail, it is https://www.facebook.com/groups/271423439709293/

EDIT: also got one from Veronica titled "don't", the one from AG was titled "here kitty kitty", Veronica's message was as follows:

Quote:
Hi.

It feels like Alex is accusing me of something. Searches for inconsistencies, calls me selfish.

Alex, your hope for a twist ending is futile. It won't turn out to be a shady game of mine, I won't turn out to belong to "my father's circles" from the very beginning, leaking secret information on someone's orders. It's not a hoax. It's not a metaphor. I won't wake up in the end.

My twist is much simpler than that.

Voronika,
http://feverishfeeling.com

P. S. I know you're Alex so I've found them.

 		I'm guessing that the little girl mentioned here is Voronika and the 25-year-old she mentioned earlier was Eugene.

 		From reading the FB group, it appears as though the package that Alex mentioned is related to a series of events that led to him being the last surviving member of the group. Originally, the group was made to discuss something called THEM, but as time went on, things started happening, one of them (a professor) got a message taped to his desk which indicates that THEY (referring to THEM again, confusing I know) are dying.

So, whatever happened to Eugene Annikovsky? I've looked, but found no traces.

 		New email from Voronika:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Hi.

It's ridiculous to tell you about mysterious circles pulling the strings and correcting typos in our copybooks while not being able to tell what exactly is so scary about them. It's ridiculous to try to expose them while not exposing them. I don't really want exposure.

There are two forces in the world. The first one is alive and dead; it makes our hearts beat and stops them, it riddles us, it opens our pores and poisons us. The second one is strict and simple; it seeks knowledge that would allow it to transform the first one into an intelligent and clear order.

I know you were among those who love intelligence and clearness, Dad. I was a child, but I understood what you were doing. I'm adult now, but I don't understand why.

Why not share a bit of your knowledge with me? We haven't seen one another in a while, but that's circumstantial. Circumstances mean nothing to a luminous mind.

When it dawned on me that I'm sick, I started dialling numbers, mailing letters, and shuffling yellow pages. I travelled half the world. I couldn't find you, of course. You're impossible to find if you don't want to be.

And then I thought that my omnipotent and kind father will surely cure me, if he only finds out about my sickness. So I've launched a website with a very straightforward name: feverishfeeling.com. So my dad and his associates follow everyone who mentions them? Well, here I am. I'm exposing you. Catch me. Bring me home.

Cure me.

I know you can.

When I woke up today, I found a note by me bed. I'm not sure if I was the one who wrote it in my sleep or if someone got into my cabin during the night. I'm not sure if it's intended for me or not.

Voronika,
http://feverishfeeling.com

P. S. Perhaps there is a third way?

 		I suspect that the blotch in the centre is actually a land mass that we need to identify, but I don't know if it's a country or an island.

 		I decided to send Voronika a message, something tells me that her "father" is a member of the group that the hopscotch enthusiasts were discussing. The message is as follows:
Quote:
Hi Voronika, I just wanted to discuss something with you, you
mentioned that your father is part of a group. Is it possible that
this group is the same one that the hopscotch enthusiasts (just a
name, group has nothing to do with the title, can be found at
https://www.facebook.com/groups/271423439709293/ and AG is a member)
were discussing the same group? If so, that means that your father
may be having issues of his own since the professor (Dimitri Polyakov)
received a letter mentioning people from the organisation showing
signs of PGC-25 (whatever that is, the pic can be found at
https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfa1/t31.0-8/p526x296/10404029_1442171789399614_7588743922958793601_o.jpg).
Hope things get better for you soon

Hi Twiler. You're quite right of course. That coastal land mass is the Wu (region) of China where the city of Shanghai is located.

Also, the symbol on the bottom resembles imo the Japanese Katakana symbol for "wa". HTH y'all.

Nice find on the Wu region.
As for the Katakana, I think it's actually not "wa" but "fu".

Still working on the rest, looks quite a cryptic riddle.

 		Over on the reddit thread a solve has been reported:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cq7QWu1bJfU

So it presumably goes like this:

From 'Il nome della Rosa' : c
From 'Alice in Wonderland : q
7
From '?&A' : Q
Wu
From '21 degrees': 1b
J
fU

I don't understand the first, third and fourth of these, nor do I understand how anyone worked out all the casing.
