Gmail Chat with Tylean

Quote:
me: Thank you for pointing us to Abie. She has been gracious and helpful.
Rabbit: That is well
Have you made progress with the lesson and the examination?
me: We are having lengthy discussions and doing research but do not know the name. But we may be moving in the right direction.
Rabbit: I see.
Your progress has indeed been great so far, yet I regret the lack of Time.
It is not right that you should be deprived of the joys of apprenticeship.
me: We have no time (pun intended) to dwell on that now. Smile
But thank you.
Rabbit: You sought me out tonight (although for you it may yet be day). How may I add to your Lore?
me: Would the time of Adam be a correct path to follow?
It is morning where I am.
Sent at 9:20 AM on Wednesday
Rabbit: Forgive me, they are getting closer. They are trying to interfere with your quest. I have now returned. Can you repeat your question?
me: Oh no. I was asking if we'd be on the right path by going to the time of Adam.
Sent at 9:23 AM on Wednesday
Rabbit: Oh, I remember that time well. It was terrifying for them, but they had just started on their mortal quest. Those were simpler days in many ways...Buy nay you cannot return to those days. Nor would that help you. They would still find you then. No, the quest is here and in the time to come.
me: That is very helpful. We'll examine what is before us.
Thank you Tylean.
Sent at 9:26 AM on Wednesday
Rabbit: I am surprised at the difficulty you are having with the first task, have you no doctors or scientists among you?
me: We can find them if needed, of course.
Sent at 9:28 AM on Wednesday
me: Coffeegirl18 would like to know if the white stone had religious significance
Rabbit: Hmm...they are approaching
me: Take care. We will do our best for you.
Sent at 9:31 AM on Wednesday
Rabbit: One more thing...
Learn the third lesson.
me: The NAME lesson.
key in lock
Rabbit: Indeed
me: I will let the others know what you have said.
Rabbit: Thank you my faithful apprentice.
Go now in Peace.
me: And peace to you as well. Thank you.
Rabbit: I will return to my meditation. Watch for the Warning. After that, you may know that War approaches.


So it seems we need to take a step back, review lesson 3, and apply it to the examination.

I forget but did we try Shakespeare as a password yet? He wrote a short story/poem (I forget now)...called The Rape of the Lock.

Clarification From Tylean

Quote:
Rabbit: Forgive my intrusion. It seems I did not answer one of your questions. Although we may be religious if we choose (as I am), our Order itself is not a religious order. We have been entrusted with the Keeping of the Book.
me: Thank you for the clarification. Coffeegirl18 was particularly interested in the Adamic language and any possible religious significance of the white stone.
Rabbit: Oh, indeed, the Language of the Book has been called the Adamic Language, but you will not find what you need to learn of it in the world.
The white stones are not those spoken of in scripture. They are those that give us our power when we are separated from the Book
me: Like a symbiotic relationship?
Rabbit: More of a conduit or a way to connect with the Book from a distance.
In a way it is a little like this clever program that allows us to speak to one another
me: That's a good analogy. I will pass this along to her.
Rabbit: Thank you

Examination Rules

Quote:
Rabbit: Perhaps I have been unkind. Never have I had to train apprentices so quickly. Years of research are the norm...
Here therefore are the rules that you must follow: (a) there are three parts to the examination:

1) Find the name that corresponds to each picture.

2)Each name should have two parts

3)Find the Name of the Book

me: Amandel will appreciate this as she was just asking about the number of tasks

Rabbit: B) once you have the name of the Book, you will be able to make contact with him
is my class all gathered together at this time?
me: they come and go so three are together now
Amandel would like to know if this is albedo stone
Rabbit: no
Where are my class? I may not have much time with them left
me: some have school and work and other obligations, too
Rabbit: I see
me: We are doing the best we can.
Rabbit: I am aware of that
You are in fact doing better than could be hoped fore
for
me: that is encouraging and appreciated
Rabbit: You give me as much courage as the songs of long ago.
me: I've heard that prayers for courage are always answered
Rabbit: Indeed, yet prayers are to be active, otherwise they are a mere wish list
me: that is very true
I only pray to do His will and to give thanks
Rabbit: I have spoken to amandel
that is well
me: I'm glad she got to ask her question
I will convey the rest to the others now.
Rabbit: do you understand the tasks?
me: I believe so.
Rabbit: very well
remember that the name has only six letters
If I say more than this the Book will not receive you.
me: I trust we can more forward productively now.
Rabbit: I know you will for so it is said by the Book of Prophecy
me: No one could ask for more encouragement than that. Smile

Here is my current journey with my new lords and masters, TEDO. The only thing of interest is the very last of what TEDO says. It is a clue to the first puzzle.

Quote:

TEDO: Another addition! Perhaps the world is finally ready for the Truth. Welcome to our cause. Thank you for joining our efforts. We will have guidance for you soon. The book will be ours again.

ME: I'm beginning to see the old man's blindness, his ineptitude, and his deceitful ways. His possession of the book has only caused pain and destruction to others, but he is too self-righteous to realize it himself.
I eagerly await your guidance.

TEDO: Will you join with the Tesmna Etermul Dhrem Ol? Are you prepared for the work to begin? Will you become a Novice in our order? Do you have the Strength to wield the knowledge of the Book?
The Book must be harnessed; must not be let to run free. Peace will come by guidance. We will overcome.

ME: I will join.
I am prepared to complete any work given to me to become a Novice of Tesmna Etermul Dhrem Ol. I had the Strength to see past the old man, unlike the others, and I have the Strength to handle the Book.

TEDO: Search for the Name of the Vessel of Blood that has no name.

I don't know if you got the point
The language which you do propose
Is much younger than you do suppose

The unnamed blood vessel is the "innominate artery". Innominate means having no name.

eta* It's also called the Brachiocephalic Artery

where's the rose from...i'm out of the loop.

Maybe Rose Red as in the Stephen King novel...just a guess.

It works if we're talking about life/death and spirits. We aren't fully sure if Tyrean is alive.

The rose is one of the three images posted by Tylean as an exam on the Zurkpert page. We believe it is connected to William Shakespeare as he wrote "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" in Romeo and Juliet.
