"Rue" was also referred to in an email. I think our mysterious webmaster supplied "rue" as an answer to a question from jsquared. Then the list of synonyms for anguish appeared in the source code, including the word "rue".

This is puzzling. I don't yet see how it connects to either the Atlantean story line or the Hank/W.B. story, but YshkLanti has referenced it at least four times. The way it's used suggests it might be a key component, but I'm not sure to what (and yes, I tried it as a passphrase for de-stegging the various images we've seen).

Edit: In addition to being synonymous with "angish" and French for "street", rue is also apparently a flowering shrub.

Edit Again: That wikipedia article quotes from Ophelia's crazy flower distribution speech where she mentions "O you must wear your rue with a difference." Ophelia, of course, proceeded to drown herself, somewhat tenuously connecting her to our W.B.

Hey, did anyone get the maze + math puzzle solved yet?
I emailed him with answers yesterday afternoon, but still haven't got anything back yet.

On the password protected page top left it says: "Everywhere confused attempt to understand rue"

If you take it literally and do a google search on "language rue" you will find that rue is obviously a language code for Rusyn.
I think thats too easy but I will take a closer look anyways... Smile
