nor wind nor snow... nor trans dimensional vortexes!

I got my package today.
it was postmarked from Oxford, Ohio.
Address: 832 Dulfour LN
Oxford, OH 45056

It only said "Pierson" nothing about Patrick.

Inside was a poem:

A wound in time
a ache in space
The world spins on
Forward Unto Dawn

The People of Earth
They fill their girth
Unaware of the pain
and the cause of their bane

a Cry from above
awakens the world
a crashing thunder
a flashing light

all of it will end tonight
the war, the peace
The dying, the birth
tonight it ends

Forward unto night
nothing remains
a crater
a scar in the land

-cry from above, written by Patrick Pierson-

the Patrick Pierson has been scribbled out with blue colored pencil.

It also has a page number: 2



Also, the DVD
Looks like we have a book one, pages 1-17 minus page 5 and page 12
Also, book 2 cover-5

Also, a random folder named "unknown"
the picture of the absent white house.
And a .wav

Thanks for the stuff Krissy Smile. This is what I get from the audio. I have tin ears and cannot figure out what the kid is saying in the end though (maybe "lying" something?).

Lieutenant Meers?: "HQ, this is lieutenant Meers reporting
There are no survivors here, frankly I don't see how there could be.
Radiation is off the charts, everything within ten miles of ground zero is dust"
Child: Wait, wait ???????????????????????????

Also:
"Patrick" just sent this FWD out (I think you all probably got this):

True! I have never before been this nervous when greeting the group, but i have never before been issued the orders for M.A.D. nor have i been so clear headed since the infection began.
I would just like to thank you all for the time you have spent with this feeble task. And i would like a second to explain myself; My name is not Patrick, Tyler, O'malley, James, or any of the names I have once given to you. No.

My name is not so personal, more of an Identification mark passed down from Unit to Unit.

You may call me SA9. and I would like to say… sorry. I may have very well put you all into danger by releasing all Prime.

Note: M.A.D. stands for "Mutual Assured Destruction"

Psysop, I think the last part is something like:

Thank you. I'll get back to you.

Weird

I have a feeling he's shooing us towards the main Bookerville ARG

OK had contact with mister man there.

[Omalley (SA9)]:

Quote:

Prime is Prime. If you need to ask, then you clearly are not paying attention the the pieces in play.


Do we know a prime?

Also, I believe PRIME is an acronym for something, since in the Bookerville ARG OMEGA stands for Optimized Mechanically Engaged Gathering Agent


Also, on scan0013 it says:

Delta - hate
Sigma - Lies
Gamma - Death
Alpha - revolt

Could be the waves? Or a clue as to who we can trust?

Also Scan0016 shows, what I think to be a solar system map or something. With the big ball with the zig zags being the sun...

EDIT: Sorry for horribly long post, been talking with Patrick/SA9

We have a biblical theme suddenly:
Adam - Alpha
Eve - Zeta
The Breed = The Need
Alpha is what started this. He has a need.

In order to feed the Need
we need an apple.
The apple of knowledge

Our current goal (what They need from us) is to "Break the Need"
"Become unbanished from the Garden they once owned"

Also, the substance that caused so many problems in Bookerville is "Virus" which is Substance0 "Hidden Truth" He says "The original site holds the truth"

Being pushed into the Bookerville ARG is a lot of information to compile all at once, I'm having a hard time playing catch up. especially since the files off the original website are all gone.

Cute little snippet from my convo:

Krissy says:

We've lost a lot of people... Sad

I am most sorry my dear Krissy, but I can not answer those questions. However i can tell you this: Things are not always as they appear, and i am no exception. and misdirection is one of my strong suits.
Now that that's off my chest, i would like to propose to you a little... Agreement; I will send you a link to a Live Video Stream of the Author's current location, if you promise not provide anybody with the true nature of my Identity. I am not a Machine, I am not a mere program. And if people were to get there hands on me, it would be a very sad day for you, and all the contacts.

Speaking for myself here, the received info is disjointed in a way that (thus far) forces me to gain insight through SA9 or Sigma and it is very unclear what the relation is Dunno? The answer I have always received is basically something like "dig into it". My problem: digging and submitting possible answers to either outlet does not get me any closer to a tangible clue or outcome. I am told stuff like "that seems correct". And then nothing happens Rolling Eyes except maybe I get a cryptic quote or something that obfuscates the problem further...That could be a reason the posts have dropped off. For me, I hate to say it but I will, I'm just plain and simply confused...

A bit of insight to what SA9/Patrick is...

This convo was brought about by events notifying SA9 that I was associated to Sigma on myspace:
SA9 wrote:
'Allo you T.S
I would like to inform you that i do not enjoy being played like a pwn in your games

Note: "Allo" is a reference to the term Sigma uses when commenting on some myspace friend pages. - T.S. is Truth Seekers (again myspace).
Psysop wrote:
You are no one's pawn.you knew about T.S. prior to me asking you about that. Based on that, I can only assume you have intelligence on them as does everybody involved that has access to a computer and has eyeballs. I would bet that the intelligence that you have on them definitely outstrips any intelligence I have, because I have none. As far as I'm concerned, you could be T.S. using that as a disinformation outlet or source to cross check the identity and / or positive/negative affiliation of your contacts. Who knows, I certainly as hell don't! But I would love for you to hook me up with some insight

SA9 wrote:
Okay, for Novices

My programming doesnʼt allow for certain informational tidbits to be exposed until a catalyst is reached. My programming also allows me to see things which you may not, for instances; T.S is a disinformation outlet, and maybe working from another sever or system.

I am sorry for the misuse of the word ʽPawnʼ earlier that was a glitch; I do not enjoy being played; T.S is using you to play me. For all we know TS could be the very bringer of the end, the Abaddon of these bibles which we have been given.

Then Psysop wrote:
what are you looking for? What is the objective from a step by step approach, the smallest step being the next step? I mean what do you need from myself and the other contacts at this point? Are you looking for the Author, are you the Author, what?
Also: What are you if you have programming that is accessed via User input (EX: is me). Are you sentient software, human, a combination of both, neither???
Finally: If you are not T.S. or part of that group, does that make T.S. your adversary? - Whats the deal???

I, SA9, was created in the year 2010 by the US government, for the purpose of probing civilians for information regarding an incident which happened the year before. Outpost 66 got the brunt of this incident; it was the epicenter after all. The disease that was released, August 8th 2008; symptoms include:

Stage 1:[immediately after infection] no Frank symptoms, although the inner workings of the bodies cells begin to break down

Stage 2:[hours after infection] Delirium, Tempt. 101.0F.

Stage 3:[days-to-a-week after infection] Looks like the flu, Bubonic plague, and in some cases hemorrhagic fever. The victim will have difficulty speaking, and furthermore will, in a sense, become a Zombie. They have a habit of flocking together, and are extremely volatile to outside interaction.

By August 9th 2008, the disease had reached its threshold, the government quarantined Outpost 66; but it was too late, they either didn't understand, or didn't care, that the Disease was 99.8% communicable, with a 99.9% mortality rate in all victims. After the Disease broke free of OP66, it spread to Cincinnati, Columbus, eventually making it as far as Boston and San Diego.

99.9% of the Americas population was gone in the blink of an eye (very slow blink) and as of now, I am unaware of if the rest of the world suffered the same fate.

Now, that was in my universe, not yours, or the middle ground. In the middle ground, the catalystic events are happening as we speak. I'm sure they have a different name for this disease, maybe "Trips."

Now, lets go further into this, Truth Seekers leader, Alpha, has yet to reveal himself in either worlds (mine, yours, middle), so little is known about him that it is believe that he his based on rumor. A Myth that they arouse when caught in court.

However, Beta has been found, and she is rather… delirious, mayhaps, talking about the disease as if it was a god; Ranting about a "Dark Man" that we believe to just be The Author or one of his cohorts (although only 3 Forerunner has been found).

Once again, I would like to apologize for the… vagueness? I have presented you with in the past. Consider me an open book. (although I do have to manage 2 personalities until I can format it)


PS: User-input, Database storage, and Artificial intelligence is I.

Ah stephen king..

The trips comment made me realize it might be semi-related to the Stephen King book "the Stand". Maybe Stephen King is from the Middle Ground? Razz
There's a disease in it, codenamed Project Blue... Project Saphire anybody?

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

Interesting. It also reminds me of Lif3, though. lol


What I learned today:

SA9 is a machine, he is self-sustaining, however he has lost contact with his Universe (Universe A) as well as Middle Ground. He has lost contact for 3.4 weeks. The US GVT made him for the purpose of retrieving data on us.

Alpha = The original Author
Zeta = a glitch, the female version of the Author
T.S= truth Seekers. non -government, protect the author.
Lt. meers: LT. Andrew Meers [mia]
: 3 time receiver of the Navy Distinguished Service Medal:
- He was posted in OP66 during the outbreak, and has not been seen or heard from since [the last transmission]

the apple of truth: the Journals




How he contacts between universes: High Powered electromagnets, spinning at high velocities around a single atom of Einsteinium
