 		Just noticed the hospital's website has been updated:
Quote:
After a his brief Stewardship over the Hospital, we are sad to announce that Associate Professor Keir de Hill has been forced to resign his post and leave the hospital due to unexpected family reasons. We are also sad to announce that due to recent events, our Information Technology Administrator Eve T Philopmels has also resigned due to family reasons.
Dr Theodore Edward de Oscar, who has been acting as Director of Psychiatry since the passing of Professor Soutaine, will act as Interim CEO.

Mr Trishaw I Snow, who has been acting as deputy IT Administrator, will become the new IT Administrator
trishawisnowSPLATgmail.com


So two new characters now!
Hmm...

 		Ok, first name is yet another TEDO. Laughing
And the second certainly sounds like it's another anagram, but I can't figure it out.

If my assumption about the order of the alphabet is correct, the unknown word is "aytan".

 		Possible anagram for Trishaw I Snow = This is no war?

EDIT: BLARGH. Messed up.

Possible anagrams: "This war is won", "This is war now"...

I just got a tweet from Eve. It seems she has helped OP, I think that she sees this as recompense for the map. I think she wants what we have on the message from the beacon before she will come to help us here in my world. They are still stable, but I don't know how much longer I can keep this going. They need help.


OP also updated his blog, after receiving Eve's "treatment."

Quote:
I'm a little confused and don't remember much. Eve has come to help me. I don't know how she found me. Her beacon script is slightly different from my beacon script. I don't know how, but the stone has helped me to learn the script (but sadly not the language). Where hers says "AZTAN", mine says "AZTLAN". (Secretly, I think the stone gave me more knowledge of the script than she has. She has an unusual script. I've been learning about the Zurk'Reja from her. It sounds very odd.

I am so embarrassed by my recent actions. Although I don't remember much of what I did, I have read back through my e-mails and my blog posts. Suffice it to say that I wasn't myself for that time. I'm a bit worried about something about "dealing with someone". Did I tell anyone any more on this than what I have on my e-mails? I hope no one is hurt.

Eve says it will be a little while to get fully recovered. Thank you all for helping me while I was paranoid and grandiose.

 		Looks like the beacon thing is gonna need to get solved soon then.

New e-mails:

I asked Trishaw about the virus.

Quote:
Trishaw: Dear Ms Roses,

I am unsure what your business is with our virus. As this virus is of an extremely unusual nature, and given the great repercussions that it has had on our systems and the general running of the hospital, we are treating the subject as highly sensitive. I am afraid I must inform you that given the unexpected nature of your e-mail, we will be required to send your details to the Fraud Section of the Technology Enforcement Departmental Office. Please do not be alarmed by this as it is only a routine precaution.



And also asked the new CEO about any progress on the investigation.

Quote:
Theodore: The Hospital is under new management, however, finding your family is the top priority of the Psychiatry Department and for myself. The police are searching, but our island is very small. We fear they may have been taken abroad.

It would be very helpful if you could tell us anything about where they may have gone and with whom. We fear that without treatment their condition will only deteriorate and their life and the life of those around them will be put in great danger if they are not returned. We are aware that there are some family members that do not want them to return. The police believe that they may be assisting them. We fear also that a member of our staff may have assisted them and may still be with them. Please inform your family that we will step up our efforts to find them and return them to the best possible treatment. The treatment they deserve.

Thank you for your interest. We will keep you updated.

Interesting closing line there.

Well, we have the majority of the beacon message and now we know a_tan is aztan, but I'm still clueless to na fain dor fe and the symbols under the red symbol.

 		Maybe we should forward what we've deciphered and see if A&T know anything more.

 		I sent ThatEve with what we know and told her that, at this point in time, we really have no choice but to go with what ThisEve wants. However, I also told her maybe she shouldn't give it all away just in case ThisEve decides to take the information and never return back to Tylean and Abie.

 		Yeah, it's good to have a little bit of leverage in cases like these.

 		Fresh from our IT wondergal:
Eve wrote:
I showed Abie your e-mail.
She looked troubled and said:
"Their Eve means well, but she is untrained. Trust what the man from their world said"
I had a look at OP's blog thinking that this must be whom she meant. I haven't heard of "Aztlan" either.


Outside of OP I can't think of anyone... If he has knowledge of anything, it must revolve around this:

but I'm not really sure what we should ask of him.

Another TEDO Laughing

Could Aztlan be a name? "The People of Aztlan"? At first I thought it was a place, but I think it might be a person, perhaps the "old man."

 		Maybe. All I keep thinking when I read it is the Aztecs and the Lesson of the Jaguar. (Or was it the Mayans he taught? Ah, anyway...)

 		Does O.P. know all of what we've discovered?
