Well, I don't think it's me seeing as I'm no longer at that rank.

it is just an idea

I would like to invite Jean M. to the darkside to act as our leader over there. I think something like that would help us focus our efforts on the darkside.

what do you guys think?


A lovely idea. Then he can create a forum for us Darksiders to openly communicate with the characters (much like Mildred has done for the UNBC). If we have Betty & Jean Moulin in that manner, it would be helpful to be able to talk with them inside the nave. Not sure if Higgs would be able to join us after that last comment he left, but you never know. And the UNBC still has Mildred & Nedd on the outside (and the Nun to sing us songs with her puppets).

This morning I sent an email at his old addy (jeanmoulinSPLATmuchomail.com) and sort of hinted that crossing over with one of us might be a good way for him to continue his dashing ways (and now we are bravely fighting ghosts instead of mortal men).

It feels so great to get out into the sunlight. I so miss the blue
sky and the sea salt. Just wanted to update you on our progress
inside the nave. Looks like the creepy Eidolon is so enamored with
our services, that he isn't questioning our change in faith one iota.
I'm so glad he granted us this "vacation" even if it was for his own
evil needs.
Please pass along my thanks for the support from under your bed. I
have seen the Nun's video and hope those maps help you find what is
needed on your side.
And I wanted to warn you guys that Betty may decided to join us - she
is waiting to get her hands on a manuscript that should detail what we
are looking for inside the nave. I'm going to do what I can from the
inside to protect her from the Trinity so she can concentrate on her
mission, but then she may need to come inside to help us get the job
done.
Hugs!

 		Asking for more time
Last night I sent the following message to the Eidolon.

konamouse wrote:
O my dear pater. I am so thrilled to bring you the joyous news of my progress.

I have managed to find my way back to our old friends and they appear
to have welcomed me back as a Sammeeeee. I have explained to them
this amazing gift you have bestowed upon your followers - this chance
to pass back and forth and commune with those on the outside (which is
a good thing since my family was getting a little worried when I
stopped answering my emails last month). And you may have noticed
that Happy has taken consolation in my words. This morning I heard
the news that Trinket has joined us in the nave. Will she also have a
Raven Cell along with us? What a pretty little bird she will be in her
cage.

I have made progress on my special mission for you. Unfortunately,
Mildred is being very secretive and I never had much relationship with
all that hocus pocus mumbo jumbo seance crap. She never answered any
of my calls, even before I entered your wondrous presence. But
Betty...ah Betty....we started out together so very long ago. I think
I will be able to touch her soon. She is still hiding out across the
Atlantic but there is a very good chance she will actually physically
be in my reach....if I can have just a little more time. What is just
a few more days?

And I really, truely want so much to be the one to bring her to you
myself. I want to give you her soul as a special gift from me to you.
As a way to show you my love & devotion. Will you allow your little
kona kitten nymphus (soon to be your soldier) the opportunity to bring
this soul to your temple. Just give me a few extra days outside the
nave, and keep your Trinity by your side for now, and I swear upon the
altar of Mithras that I will personally walk her over in my arms.

- your kitten


Tonight bravil noticed the addition of a moon on my Raven Cell (and the same one is on the cells of Methos and Taluria). It appears to be the phase we'll see in the US on July 21st and it is titled "bettyismine".

So I think our deadline to bring Betty in is July 21 (and I hope this means we get to bring her and not the Eidolon).

I'm sorry that I brought up a subject that saddens you my dearest Pater. I never meant to do such a thing. On a happier note, the soul of the woman named Betty may be coming to you. Unfortunately, A few extra days will be needed to drive her to the right level of madness. That and I wish to deliver her to you myself. I will deliver her to your feet my dearest, but I am having a bit of fun with her. I wish to make myself worthy of you in all ways.

I pledge my love and loyalty to you always,
Your Sweet Pumpkin Nymphus,

He didn't reply for a few days, so I sent this Laughing

Have I done something to anger you, my dearest, that you would not deign to continue your contact with me? Have you turned your affections to another? I am very sorry if I have done something wrong. My companions and I have delivered you a soul as you asked. Does that not please you?

I wish I could have laid her at your feet myself and had your pleasure warm me like a fire. The woman known as Betty seems almost willing to cross over to you... I will bring her to you my dearest Pater.

Your Loving Miles,
Taluria


That got a response Smile

Greetings my dear Miles Taluria Pumpkin!!!

Pater is not angry with you!!! Pater was so busy making a place for our new soul, Mildred Harnack, he did not have time to tell you how grateful he truly is!!! Please forgive me, Pumpkin!!! You and your Trinity are working so very well together!!! You brought to me Mildred Harnack!!! It makes me more than proud to have you in my dark, dark temple. I have visited your cell, Miles Taluria Pumpkin, and it is glorious in there!!! I had a very good time poking about. Your devotion to Pater will be rewarded soon. I look forward to receiving the soul of the Sammeeeee Betty. She has always been a severe thorn in your Pater's side.

Cheers to you!!!

Cheers to life!!!

Warm Regards,

Your Eidolon

 		I emailed Eidolon to update him on my mission to get Mapmaker to cross over I thought I might ask some tough questions

I wrote
Quote:
Dearest Eidolon

I wish to update you on my mission you have so kindly given to me. I am trying to get all the other Sammeeees to accept me back amongst them and then I shall make my move on Mapmaker I think he will accept me after a few more days of gaining everyone's trust. They have no idea of the joy and happiness that I feel when basking in your glorious glow. All I want to do is shout your name from the top of the highest mountain but these Sammeeeees do not understand the glory of what you offer to all of your pumpkins.
I hope to not only bring you Mapmaker but also to assist in bringing you as many souls as I can.
I have just one question my dearest Pater. I would appreciate so much if you could honour me with an answer. What will happen when you get the thirty souls you so richly deserve? The reason I ask is because wherever you go I wish to follow and I want to help you in any way I can.
I want the whole world to know the thrill I feel when you call my name.

With the greatest devotion

Your Nymphus pumpkin

Lordscrubba


I just recieved this

Quote:
Greetings Nymphus Lord Scrubba Pumpkin!!!

Have I told you how much I treasure our friendship, Nymphus Pumpkin? When you are a Pater, it is ever so lovely to have magnificent souls, such as yours around. You are a calm harbor for this stormy Eidolon.

The question you ask is so simple, yet I feel funny speaking about it, even with a dear soul such as you. Let me explain. As you know, not too long ago, I was the leader of a great ruling people called Spoocheeeee. Last fall, much to my chagrin, you Sammeeeees destroyed my world. Everything I loved and cherished was gone with one ritual that was performed in a place of power by the now fallen and transformed Sammeeeee named Kona. That evening was supposed to bring the love of my life, Patricia Moore, to my doorstep and into my heart forever. Sadly, that evening brought me heartache and betrayal and, in the end, death. As I drifted into the forever, Lord Pumpkin, I saw my life flash by like a lovely old sepia tone film. It occurred to me, in that flash of a moment, I was not through with the mortal world. Like a wound which will not heal, my desire to return has increased with each day. If I can sacrifice 30 souls to my Spoocheeeee God Mithras, it is written that I ! will be returned to the mortal world. Once I return, I have grand plans for the world that tossed me away only months ago.

I hope my open heart has demonstrated to you, dear Nymphus Lord Scrubba Pumpkin, how much these souls mean to your Pater.

Cheers to life!!!

Warm Regards

Your Eidolon


I will email him back with some more specific questions see what I can draw out of him

I wonder if we need to give eidolon his souls then maybe kill him when he becomes mortal I dunno just a thought

Except he plans to inhabit the mortal body of Kevin (Dwin), the "Innocent" in all this. We'd have to kill Kevin. Personally? Can't do that. Won't do that.

If we couldn't kill his soul the first time, can we kill it the second time?

But's it's one possible ending for this.

 		He's asked me to go after Happy as well...

Quote:
Greetings my dear and devoted Nymphus Peachy Pumpkin!!!

I will get straight to the point, Peachy Pumpkin. Would you like to venture back to the mortal world for moi? I'm looking around and I'm thinking it might be wonderful to have more Sammeeeee souls on the dark side. Five more would be lovely. I know you are well loved by many of the true blue Sammeeeees out there. I should like you to bring to me little Miss Middle Aged Sunshine in a tin hat, also known as Happy Rogers. I had planned to have Happy here on our dark side campus by now, but the Sammeeeee with whom I had struck a deal failed to deliver. If you are willing to drag Happy Rogers to the feet of your Pater, you must mull these three words, Peachy Pumpkin...

Sine sole sileo.

Please come back to me when you have found your way.

Cheers to Happy Rogers and her very own dark side cell!!!

Cheers to life!!!

Warm Regards,

Your Eidolon

My dearest Pater~
I am writing to inform you of my progress, but first, may I say how much I am missing hearing from you? Your words are like a balm to me. It soothes my anxious spirit to know that I am assisting you in whatever way I can. Please let me know how you are fairing. What are you doing to amuse yourself while we are at your service on this side?

I am making cautious progress in locating Nedd Ludd as you requested. I have made much study of bringing you this, your heart's desire, and what I have found is that it is best achieved by the light of the full moon. The full moon holds much power and I believe I can use that power to locate Nedd more easily. He is well protected by this cowering under the bed gang. I will attempt to draw him out from under wherever it is he is hidden and away from this group of clinging fools, but to do so, the power of the full moon is needed.

I humbly ask you for much needed time. Patience is required when using the dark arts...they are not to be trifled with and I do not wish to do anything that would provide you with less than exactly that which you deserve. The next full moon returns on July 29. This will give me the time that I need to prepare the items necessary for my work and for me to direct my energies appropriately.

Please let me know if I can do anything else for you while I prepare for this most exciting evening to come.

Your humble Pumpkin~
Lacey


(And can I just add that all this 'double-talk' is wearing me out...I'm trying to tell him what he wants to hear but at the same time, not outright lie to him. Harder than it sounds!)

His reply:
Quote:
Greetings Miles Lacey Pumpkin!!!

Your love and concern for your Pater is as sweet as morning!!! I have the feeling you WILL be able to deliver the dolt named Nedd Ludd!!! So be it!!! Bring him to my feet on the full moon. Enjoy your haunting time, Miles Pumpkin!!! You make me so very happy!!! I'm so glad you came into my life!!!

Cheers to you!!!

Cheers to life!!!

Warm Regards

Your Eidolon


And that's what it looks like...red until the last 3 lines, then purple. Assuming this is his auto-sig? Also, just to note: all of the emails that I've gotten from him show up w/ a pink background when it forwards from my gmail account to my primary one. Such a girly-boy! Laughing

 		Damn Eidolon is good at avoiding specific answers

I sent this
Quote:
Oh Beautiful Eidolon

My heart was broken when I read your story and I have indeed shed a tear for you my Pater. Had I realised what had been done to you I would never have helped the Sammeeeees at all. I am so glad that you have decided to return to the Mortal world but how can you do this?. I understand that you will sacrifice 30 souls to Mithras and I would willing give my soul to be sacrificed to allow you to return. Will you be safe when you enter the mortal world or will you have a weakness that the Sammeeeees could find and flaunt. I would be honoured to offer my services to assist you in the next step as maybe your personal bodyguard or something similar.

I would love to hear of your plans for the mortal world it would give me comfort in my dark cell to know what you wish to do with the other Sammeeeees.

Please understand dearest Eidolon that the reason I ask so many questions is to be able to offer my help in any small way I can and by my offer assist you in succeeding to finally take down all the Sammeeeees

Your loving Nymphus Pumpkin

Lordscrubba


and I got this reply

Quote:
Greetings my Nymphus Lord Scrubba Pumpkin!!!

Thank you for your sympathetic ear. My emotions are quite turbulent today. I am feeling the weight of the world. We all have days like this, but your Pater suffers more than most. I will be spending quite a bit of time away from the temple in the upcoming days. There are a few items I must attend to across the portal. I will be in touch as much as I can, but you must understand, it is part of my grand scheme.

Do not worry about this Eidolon when he makes the transmigration back to the mortal world. I won't be there for long. I have plans for a grand and glorious return to my dark temple, that will insure that I rule all forever and ever. There is more than one way to have my happy ever after, Pumpkin. And my plan is sure to deliver this to my feet.

There is no need for you, dear Nymphus soon to be Miles Pumpkin, to tag along. I will go unnoticed. My transmigration vessel is perfect to execute the deed that will never be undone. I do thank you for your offer. It is so very kind of you. I have such kind hearted Pumpkins in my temple. Who could be as lucky as your Pater? No other!!!

Cheers to life!!!

Warm Regards

Your Eidolon


So it looks like if Eidolon does get his souls we wont have much time to kill him/save Dwi

 		So is this an opportunity to look around the sanctuary a bit with Eidolon "spending quite a bit of time away from the temple in the upcoming days"???

Or try to rescue some of our friends from the in-between?

Who could we ask about that? If the Eidolon's gone, the mice NEED to play!

ETA: A thought came to me in chat: It would be oh-so-easy for me to distract him while the others were poking around in the temple by insisting he perform some sort of ritual in some place of power (away from Happy et al), and tell him it is vital to the successful outcome of any spells I would cast on the full moon...maybe I should make him dance nekkid??? LOL

 		In a (futile) attempt to figure out when AJ would be coming back to the dark side, I sent him this:
Quote:
My Dearest Pater~
I returned to my cell late last night, only to find you missing. I called and called for you, hoping that you would share with me more of your loving lyrics, but you did not answer.

I must go back to the outside and continue my search for ways to help you gain your heart's desire.
When will you return? My heart weeps for contact with you and to hear you sing to me again.

Your Pumpkin~
Lacey


And I got this back in return:
Quote:

Greetings Miles Lacey Pumpkin!!!

I have a song that is close to my heart that I would love to share. I know it only as The Goat Song. Do you know it? It is for me a song that floods my soul with memories. It begins like this...

There was a man
now please take note
there was a man who had a goat --

I hope you are well, Pumpkin!!! So sorry for my absence. Life has become quite complicated for your Pater.

Cheers to life!!!

Warm Regards

Your Eidolon


Gah.

The lyrics to the song he's referring to:
There was a man
(There was a man)
Now please take note
(Now please take note)
There was a man
(There was a man)
Who had a goat
(Who had a goat)

He loved that goat
(He loved that goat)
Indeed he did
(Indeed he did)
He loved that goat
(He loved that goat)
Just like a kid
(Just like a kid)

One day that goat
(One day that goat)
Felt frisk and fine
(Felt frisk and fine)
Ate three red shirts
(Ate three red shirts)
Right off the line
(Right off the line)

The man, he grabbed
(The man, he grabbed)
Him by the back
(Him by the back)
And tied him to
(And tied him to)
A railroad track
(A railroad track)

Now, when that train
(Now, when that train)
Hove into sight
(Hove into sight)
That goat grew pale
(That goat grew pale)
And green with fright
(And green with fright)

He heaved a sigh
(He heaved a sigh)
As if in pain
(As if in pain)
Coughed up those shirts
(Coughed up those shirts)
And flagged the train!
(And flagged the train!)

So what to do with this? What the heck kind of memories could he be referring to? I actually have kind of an odd affinity with goats, I think I'll tell him a true story about goats from my childhood...See what I get in reply.

 		Three posts in a row...Borders on the ridiculous, but I'm still chasing this goat thing.

Interestingly, found this on Wiki:
Quote:
TRAGEDY: The word's origin is Greek tragōidiā (Classical Greek τραγωδία) contracted from trag(o)-aoidiā = "goat song" from tragos = "goat" and aeidein = "to sing". This meaning may have referred to horse or goat costumes worn by actors who played the satyrs, or a goat being presented as a prize at a song contest and in both cases the reference would have been one of respect for the god Dionysos.

Old-English spellings such as tragoedy (cf. Latin tragoedia) and tragedie (cf. French tragédie) occur in early-modern and earlier works.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tragedy

Also, this:
http://depthome.brooklyn.cuny.edu/classics/dunkle/tragedy/intr2.htm
With information re. sacrifices of bulls in addition to goats. Coincidence?
