What board?
I don't think Happy knows about the Wearesammeeeees blogspot. You can
certainly tell her about it. I tried posting a message last week,
letting our outside folks know where we were in the nave and that we
were looking for updates from them. But nothing was posted in
reponse. I'll try again.

Happy knows I have a LJ account (and both she & Dwin have used theirs
to post updates). Trinket started a LJ last month but I haven't seen
any updates from her since she was out in Maine and then showed up on
Happy's doorstep all freaking out. I and the others on the Darkside
do not know about any board.

Meanwhile, I'll post the situation on the blogspot and maybe you can
pass that information along to the others. I know that myself, Methos
& Taluria were given Mildred as an assignment. In fact, the Eidolon
tried to make a jest about calling us another Trinity. But there may
be others given the same mission but with different targets. I think
Betty was mentioned, as were Nedd, Jean Moulin and the Nun. And many
of the others in UNBC. However, we are each only a danger to the one
we were assigned. I don't know if I can find that out or not. But if
I do, I'll let you know and you can pass it along.

We have to keep the Eidolon believing we are seeking his new souls and
we are loyal to him. But I'm worried if we are not successful. If we
all fail miserably, he might not let us into the sanctuary. Do you
think any of the remaining Sammeeeees outside might be willing to come
with us so we can show the Eidolon some small measure of success? Is
there any Sammeeeee who has the strength and maybe some additional
knowledge of the nave or the portal who can cross back over with us?

Heh, that's what it means to say "We Are Sammeeeees".

There is a board for the Under Nedd's Bed Crew. It might be best if you and the dark side Sammeeeees refrain from posting. The interaction could prove dangerous.

Happy and Jayne are keeping Trinket away from all means of communication right now. They are hoping to keep the Trinity at bay and hold tight to Trinket's soul.

I will warn Nedd, Jean Moulin and the Nun.

My vote for most stable would go to Betty. You should approach her and be very up front with your plan. If you take any white rose, maybe Jean Moulin is the best choice. I do not know him, but I remember Betty speaking about his heroics. Again, I would discuss this with him and tell him the plan. Are there any other Sammeeeees with the Under Nedd's Bed Crew that are stable and fearless enough to go to the dark side? I want everyone to understand what is ahead and the need to get some of you into this sanctuary.

We cannot fail.

Some news about Peeps...almost blissful in the sun

So I finally added my "we cannot fail" to Betty's comments on her myspace page to introduce myself to Mister Gerold. Below is my exchange with him.

I am Mister Gerold. I am the man taking care of Peeps and trying to help the Sammeeeees fight off this Eidolon. A mutual friend suggested I contact you. She said you left the message on her page. Can I help you, Drizabella?

Hello Mister Gerold,
How do you do. I am Drizabella Juniorini also known as drizjr. I am a Sammeeeee, one of The Under Nedd's Bed Crew. You may have seen my posts on Mildred Harnack's board.

I understand that this Eidolon is out for revenge; that his mission is to collect 30 souls in order to exchange his for a mortal soul. It seems his target is Dwin, but I wonder if little Alan, Sarah's son, is also at risk. Trinket's attempted suicide, while visited by the Trinity of Kinder, Abbott, and her sister; Tutu; brings this count to 25.
I will do whatever I can to prevent the successful completion of this Eidolon's mission.

Please try to convey my best wishes to my friend Peeps.
I wonder if hearing the names of the Sammeeeees and the White Roses would trigger any response from him.
Could you try that?

I am more than happy to say your names to Peeps. I sat Peeps in his garden today. The sunshine really agrees with him. He seemed almost blissful.

Thank you for this information about young Alan. This had not crossed my mind until now. You are quite thoughtful and insightful. He might be a target of some sort. It is horrible to see Kevin (Dwin) in this possessed state. I'm not sure I could digest the terror of seeing a boy as young as Alan taken by this Eidolon.

I know we must increase the soul count a bit, in order for some of our friends to access the sanctuary, but I am worried. After the last, very large, increase of souls to the temple, the Eidolon's hold on Kevin (Dwin) became much, much stronger. I will be interested to see what I face tonight with this monster.

We cannot fail

Mister Gerold

"I know we must increase the soul count a bit, in order for some of our friends to access the sanctuary,..."
It looks like more of us need to go over to the darkside. Shocked

Mr Gerold~
My name is Lacey and I am also a Sammeeeee trying to thwart Mr AJ's plan from the inside. I am a practitioner of the Craft and am desperately tring to find a way to protect the Sammeeeees left on this side of the nave, but I have only 7 days left before I must return to my cell.

I have been assigned to bring back Nedd Ludd, and am avoiding him at all costs, while also trying to convince Eidolon I am using my craft to locate Nedd and bring him back. Please tell Nedd to avoid any possible contact with me.

Do you have any suggestions for me as to where I can look for additional protection and banishment information to protect our fellow Sammeeeees, both on this side and the other side? I could sure use some assistance from someone more knowledgeable about what kind of power we are dealing with and the source of this power. How is Eidolon using Mithras to reincarnate? With this information, I might be able to find something to combat it more directly.

If you have any guidance at all for me, it would be appreciated.

We cannot fail.
Lacey

I will pass on the information to Nedd Ludd. Thank you for stepping forward. It will help us all to know who needs to be extra careful.

Let me address your question about this Eidolon and Mithras. Sadly, I know very little about Mithras. Betty and I have spent the last few months examining and searching for all that is known. There are so many secrets within the religion itself. And then we found the many different temples practiced this worship in many different ways. Betty is close to having a book. Well, it is more of an old document than book. This, we hope, will give us information about Spoocheeeee's worship of Mithras. We need to know how they used this Sun God of good for their own evil gain.

It seems to me this Eidolon has struck a deal with Mithras. He has asked for a new life and in return is giving 30 souls to Mithras. I would suppose Mithras has been deceived about the reason and the way these souls have been sacrificed. This Eidolon is crafty. He's bending every rule to gain this rebirth.

One thing you could do is explore the many ways we can communicate with Mithras. We may need the power of this God to help us in the end.

We cannot fail

[EMAIL] Re: Mildred's Seance

konamouse wrote:
I regret to inform you that Mildred opened herself up to the Trinity
tonight, inorder to find out how we can pull them away from the
Eidolon's control. We got some answers, but in retribution, or just
because that is what he makes them do, they pulled her into his dark
nave and she is now imprisoned along side Ben, Trinket and Timothy
Mann. His soul count is now 26.

But during her seance she did speak with all three of them. The key
is in the maps that our Singing & Dancing Nun has sent out. Two have
been received and the UNBC are working to decode them. It appear that
Happy (with the Nun) are to follow the directions from the maps to
find portals that will help them bring one of the Trinity out from the
control of the Eidolon (but then will put them in the "in-between"
place). The first map will help her find Dr. Kinder. We think the
second will lead her to Mr Abbott. Hopefully the third will find
Tutu. After that, she is to go to Maine and confront "The Innocent"
(which we believe is Dwin). The big question then becomes, does she
do this while he is still Dwin (which will probably only be for a very
short time during the day) or when the Eidolon is inhabiting his
mortal self. Maybe you can research that.

I don't know if anyone has sent this information to Happy yet. They
might be waiting until the have solved Insane's map. And they might
need Jean Moulin to follow them as physical protection on their
journey. I don't think he should try to go into the nave, cause the
Eidolon told me that he is keeping White Roses separate from us
Sammeeeees. I have warned our dashing friend.

To give you another update (that you can pass along to the UNBC crew):
Some of us will be inside the sanctuary by July 19th. I hope Betty
has found what she is looking for and can join us inside before then.
I am having a doozy of a time convincing the Eidolon that she has
willingly expressed an interested in worshiping Mithras and serving
the Pater. But if she is taken by the Trinity then she'll just end up
in a cell like the others and we won't be able to communicate with
her. So I hope he accepts her as he did us.

One last thing. Did you ever talk to Patricia about Dwin's biological
parentage? Any insights?

Hugs to both of them.

We Are Sammeeeees

Thank you for this information. I did know about the seance but was unable to attend. I was working with Dwin (Kevin) and doing some "memory" exercises. Dwin can't seem to remember what happens in the moment he has this "change over" to the Eidolon. I think if we can figure that out, it might help. I am happy to hear you were able to make contact with this Trinity. Sending them into the "in-between" is for the best. They are too dangerous to wander anywhere else.

I am sorry, but I do not have an answer to your question about what to do when Happy arrives at this final destination. My guess, based on what you have told me, is that you will know more as you work together to free the Trinity on this cross country journey. I just hope you are able to get her here before there has been a complete transmigration of this Eidolon into the young boy, Dwin (Kevin). There was an extremely strong increase in his violent behavior last night around three. It did not end until five am this morning. This is the reason I have not gone to bed yet. I've been so busy making notes of this experience. He laughs and the voice of this man laughs through him. It is chilling.

I did mention to Patrica your thoughts on Dwin's birth parents. She was suddenly very quiet and said she would speak to you directly about this matter.

We cannot fail!

Total spec here, but I'm thinking that Eidolon may be close to capturing Mr. Gerold after all, despite the fact that he originally thought he was safe...especially after the last message from Patricia (send help to Lubec) and what he wrote on the UNBC message board about Eidolon taunting him. ("At this point, I feel like I am useless. This Eidolon has picked up on my lack of knowledge and he is now taunting me.")

I wrote him and Patricia both on the morning of the 13th. He's usually very good about replying...he hasn't visited his MS page since the 12th, which is also the last date any of us have posted correspondence from him. (Patricia hasn't emailed me back either, but it was my reply to my first contact from her, so I can't say if this is 'normal' for her to take this long or not.)

I realize that Mr. AJ's count would've gone up if he had Mr. Gerold completely, but I'm thinking that *something* has to have happened to him.

Im thinking this too, I emailed him just after I got back from Vegas and have had no response.

Well, since Methos found this last night: http://pleasesendhelptolubec.blogspot.com/ (and Patricia posted that message 2 days ago)
It's possible he has taken refuge somewhere (and probably taken Peeps with him).

That laugh was definitely Mr AJ. Hard to understand what he says b/c of the echo.

[EMAIL] To Mister Gerold July 28, 2007
re: arcana imperii page one

I sent this to Mister Gerold, via his myspace account, to see if he has any insight to share with us on the arcana imperii page.
Quote:
Subject: Page one from arcana imperii.

Dear Mister Gerold,
I don't know if you are checking this account, but we Sammeeeees Under Nedd's Bed need your expertise.
We have seen the first page that Betty found in arcana imperii.
It is a map of The Cave of Mithra, showing some type of strange anomaly of physics, with phrases that read, "Mithra's unknown universe", "inside sensory wall of limitation", and "Shadow of Anomely World".
Does this describe how Mithras exists in this cave?

It also has these Latin phrases on it. (I've included the translations that other Sammeeeees have found.)

reductio ad infinitum = leading back to the infinite
III = 3
visio die Mithras = vision of God Mithras
ad vitam aeteman = to eternal life
XXXIII = 33
a caelo usque ad centrum = from the sky to the center
concordia cum veritate = in harmony with truth

What do you make of this all?
Can you explain it to us?

Aside from that, I am very relieved that Happy performed the 3 steps without a glitch. How is Dwin/Kevin doing? I hope he's starting to come around to his self. Please, tell him that all the Sammeeeees send hugs his way and that we are determined to fulfill the motto "We cannot fail".

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Drizabella


I'll edit this post if/when he replies.

The last time we heard from Mr Gerold was around 7/12. That's his last time logging into MySpace.
He has not responded to anyone since then?

What happened to him? Where did he go? We've been consumed with finding Peeps, and wondering about our Nun (who, by the way, last logged into the MervandDinah MySpace on 7/12 Shocked ).

Could they have run off together? Smile

Okay. I went back and compiled a short list of our last few contacts w/ Mr. Gerold.

7/11: he posted on UNBC board for Mildred to be careful at the seance

7/12: he posted on UNBC board that JM had gone to the temple and said "I feel like I'm useless, the Eidolon is taunting me, I wish I could be of more help." (paraphrased)

7/13: I sent him a message via MS (which he'd replied to in the past) with no response

7/15: spec starts with me and a couple other Sammeeeees that something may have happened to him since he wasn't responding to any communication from any of us

8/6: Kevin/Dwin updates his LJ to say the Eidolon has left his body and Mr. Gerold had explained to him what was going on

No contact since that point that I can find. If anyone can find contact from or about Mr. Gerold past 8/6, please feel free to correct me. Very Happy
