 		So did TEDO invade part of Europe in ThisWorld AND ThatWorld? Or am I confused? O.P. wants to know.

 		ThisTEDO were kind of failures. They didn't do much or, if they did, they didn't mention it to my knowledge. They basically just hung out on the Isle of Man and moped about how Tylean was a meanie for stealing from them.

ThatTEDO, however, has taken over almost the whole world, or at least appears to have. They certainly have their hands in almost everything of the Isle of Man.

ThisHistory (our history) and ThatHistory are very different, so things probably happened differently in Europe in ThatHistory than in ours.

 		Hey all, sorry for jumping into this so late, but I had a thought:

Every character has had the same role in each deminsion they occupied, albiet with slight twists or different motivations.

EX: ThisTEDO, ThatTEDO, the third TEDO, ThisTylean, ThatTylean, the third Tylean, etc.

But what about ThatEve? ThisEve is a Zwhatsthename reja, she is admittedly a speaker. Does anyone else find it odd that ThatEve doesn't fit into the picture in some larger way?

Perhaps she hasn't given us the whole story? I mean she did just re-break out Abie on her own. (One would consider her much more tightly locked down after she escaped the first time)

 		Yeah it seems kinda fishy to me.

Anyway, I asked ThatEve about Kier De Hill's sudden disappearance:

Quote:
ThatEve:Hmm...I thought Keir was gone somewhere. The New interim CEO is some guy called Theodore Oscar.
I'm not sure what's going on. There have been strange things happening lately.

I've been getting e-mails from all these people that I seem to know, but they don't know me...
I don't know what's going on. Sometime you even write and seem to be like a different person.


Quote:
ThatEve: Keir de Hill is one of my people in the other world. He killed Rhea Soutaine. But the TEDO called for reinforcements and he had to go into hiding. He will probably not respond to your e-mails.



Maybe even ThatAlovieb are involved here.

Also, I told O.P. that Kier was lying to him:

Quote:
O.P.: THis is all very confusing...
Eve has escaped. I don't know where she's gone, but I have one of the white stones with me. I will try to get to the rift.

 		From TEDO:

Quote:
Our plans are nearing their success. Your Eve has now been captured and is on her way to our world. With her is one of the Per'tnel. We will dispose of her once we know where the other one is.


Shocked

 		What do we do?

I had asked ThatEve about how she got Abie back.



Quote:
ThatEve: That's the funny thing...I was just going to the hospital one night to scout out a new plan. When I was going back to my car, I found Abie lying on the floor near the rubbish collection area. I quickly looked around to make sure she was alone and I put her in the car and drove. We're in hiding now. I'm really worried about Abie. She looks really sick and she has a black mark on her wrist that I can't scrub off. She says she's dying and from time to time she tells me things that she says will keep her alive a little longer. But she says she will need the white stones.

I don't know what to do.

 		It must be the same mark they put on Tylean that had killed him. OP Smith has one of the stones. He needs to try to meet with Abie and ThatEve somehow, although it might not be wise for him to do to their realm considering the power TEDO has over there...

 		Ack! Just noticed Eve posted this four days ago on her twitter!
Quote:
OP has gone mad! He just got an e-mail from Theodore Oscar saying that his wife and kids are dead. He's holding me responsible. Help.

 		I'm thinking that has to be a lie. On Kier's part.

 		edit: nevermind, got it. my mind is mush from school...

But I don't think there's much we can do to persuade him otherwise. And now I'm a bit iffy about trusting him again...

 		Yeah, it kinda feels like this whole thing is out of our hands at this point. It feels like we have no leads as to what to do/who to talk to next. Any ideas?

 		After asking TEDO this:
Quote:
Ah, but what if she doesn't know where the other one is?


They sent:

Quote:
Then her usefulness will be at an end.


So, I say we just tell TEDO a false location, in exchange for ThisEve's safety. Hey, in Rabbit Black ThisTEDO was pretty gullible (we sent them false... "names" for the book of prophecy, but they had to decode them first. I believe we sent them the words "ponies" and "pegasus" encoded in like Hex or something Laughing Needless to say they were not very happy Very Happy But, it kept them busy and they never did find the name of the book)

 		From ThatEve, to Carpathian and me:
Quote:

The TEDO are getting closer. Abie warned me of their coming. She told me we must hide. They came to the house today. We were the hidden basement in the house my family used to use as a holiday home. I used to love playing in it when we were little. It was built around the time of the third world war, so it is as safe as we can get. I'm scared. We have provisions to last us a few months, but I'm worried we don't have that long until they find us. Abie keeps repeating a poem. I don't like the sound of it:

"The rabbits played so calmly in the field,
while nearby they were watched by the snakes.
They have no defense; only fur for a shield,
as safe as the sun that beats on snow flakes.

Shortly they will die, never again to return;
their ashes will litter the field as they burn."

Abie has also been cackling, saying: "He who was sent is now dead! My Brother! By my hands in the mirror! How could he let it be like this? Did them coming? Why did they fail us? The mark of endless death is upon me. Why did they not stop them when they will come in the present that is gone?"

She looks sick. I don't know how much longer she'll last.


Good to know Abie is keeping everyone's spirits high!

I really feel we have nothing left to lose. Abie has fallen off her rocker, ThisEve is probably doomed, and OP Smith may have lapsed back into insanity.
So, sure, Rad, let's have a little fun with TEDO and send them to the Isle of Man Pony Club Wink
But what to do with OP... Personally, I'm really interested about the Obsidian stone he took a long while back, but I'm also curious about... well, almost everything. I wonder if he could paint it white as a gift to TEDO ;p

Ha! That'll work! Laughing

So, ThatAbie killed (a) Binsakne? I think TEDO told us that in an email, but I can't remember for sure.

Quote:

I'm not so sure we've completely lost Abie yet, she still has the ability to rhyme at least. Tylean used to rhyme quite often, maybe it's possible for her to "channel" his spirit? Also, remember what name we first knew Tylean by? WhiteRabbitBlack.

Quote:
Why did they not stop them when they will come in the present that is gone?


*head explodes* Just kidding, lol. The way this is worded seems to say that "they" (I'm guessing TEDO) will appear some time in the past (the present that is gone), and that we need to stop them then. Of course, it could also just mean that all hope is lost Laughing
