Hmmm... chapters 1, 2 and 4 eh?

Adds up to 7. So, another XBox/Bungie link?

EDIT: Only just noticed how many pages of this there are. If this rather obvious little comment's already been noted, sorry

Since I didn't see the search results I found for T-U-R-T-L-E listed anywhere, I thought I'd post them up.

First there's this one:

The Princess obviously understands linguistic context, as she's able to create a coherent message from the snippets she assembles. However, she is unlikely to understand cultural context. In other words, she knows as a semantic proposition what a "teenage mutant ninja turtle" is; she probably doesn't know it as a cultural artifact, however. (Exceptions may be made in the case of great creative works: classical history, Shakespeare, Dean Martin, and so on.)

I'm inclined to see that line as encouragement, not a clue. After all, we're dealing with a princess (teenage) who's a rogue AI (mutant), with the ability to hide from her enemies (ninja) and is currently ensconced in some kind of casket (turtle) -- and we are, for better or for worse, trying to give her power.

We will probably need more clues on what some of the deeper meanings of the e-mail are. Mostly the e-mail seems to just have answered some of our more commonly asked questions, and also give us better idea on how she communicates. Mostly I think that we are running on a lack of more revealing clues.

[JimmyJames]

This may be a stretch, and as of yet, I have nothing to back it up. However, I get this gut feeling that the Queen is responsible for all communications (web-site and e-mail) thus far. My belief is that she is deceiving us by impersonating the Princess, the Flea, the Widow, et al. She is trying to gain our trust and sympathy in order to trick us into helping her. I have a larger theory that explains her reasoning for this, but I want to hold off and get some evidence first.

[wargod22]

Unfortunantly it is impossible to tell if it is indeed the SP, or the Widow, or something else all together. From all the clues we have it is most likly the SP. Though if it is actually the SP. I'm afriad only time can tell.

me if necassary...but i thought sp wasn't using snippets of our emails any more...

[twofivefour]

The Sleeping Princess isn't using snippets of email anymore. She's been reading childrens novels. She references "The Secret Garden", "Hansel & Gretel", "The Snow Queen" and others in the last email.

[spec] She's devouring information. The Hotmail account was cleared completely of email, and then SP started replying by regurgitating lines from those emails.
Then she learned how to communicate in haiku, through the Hive-Ku page.
Now she "speaks" at a higher level, but childlike, and she references childrens novels. She's been reading. She'll move on to greater literary texts soon enough, and then to technical journals...
Although that brings a question forward - where is she finding these things to read, if she's sequestered away somewhere?
