I think they're stegged... mine's a little large. I can't, for the life of me, figure out what the password could be though.

Email from The Querent tonight


(I have not been following this, nor have I contacted anyone involved. Sure as Hell am now, though.)



I just came to post this; I hadn't been involved before but I need to see where this leads now. Viral for a movie perhaps? Sure looks scary.

The filename of the one I got says masksareoff--could that be the password? Or possibly the filename of the other picture?

Here's the copy/paste of e-mail so far. I didn't really know what to say, but wanted to at least try. Maybe it can help a bit.

AtomicSnowflake to Querent
If it is not a question, then it is the answer.
-----
The Querent to me
Hardly! Joining them would be a perplexing endeavor for most.
-----
AtomicSnowflake to Querent
Life is also perplexing. Yet it is worth the effort. If it is not a question, nor the answer, then what?
-----
The Querent to me
Meaningless thought, perhaps?
-----
AtomicSnowflake to Querent
I disagree. All thoughts have meaning.
What were your thoughts for contacting me? A warning, an invitation? You seem interesting. Can you tell me more?
-----
The Querent to me
Oh, we are just interested in fate, and the strings that tie us all together. Your card was pulled, and so we were obligated to contact. Be it a warning or a tiding of joy, I'm not at liberty to say.
-----
AtomicSnowflake to Querent
Yes, we are all connected. I wish to thank you for contacting me. I am looking forward to whatever wisdom I may gain from you and your group.
I understand that you cannot tell me everything at this time, and that is ok. I will take from this whatever I can, so that I may learn and grow. Are you at liberty to tell me what card was mine?
-----
The Querent to me
Unfortunately not. You will learn much, though. Welcome in.
-----
AtomicSnowflake to Querent
Thank you for the welcome. I know I have much to learn.
About the last photo.. that is not a question to be answered with haste. For there is much meaning inside. I would be foolish to attempt a quick reply. For I feel the answer is very deep, and merits much thought. Do you not agree?
-----
The Querent to me
We do agree. Take your time. I'll be here.

***********edit*********

A bit of googling found this?
Before mirrors, reflective surfaces were thought to be magical and could show the future. People would stare into water to try to see their future or receive messages from the gods. If you broke a mirror, you would break your future. Another superstition is the reflection in the mirror is you soul, and if you break the mirror, you break your soul.
------------------------
Also in tarot, it seems the broken mirror card, is the same as the death card. broken mirror card

[Possible Trailhead] "The Querent"

Just received this email:

Quote:

From: (The Querent) thequerentSPLATgmail.com
Subject: This is not a Question, and I apologize

But your thoughts would be loved, either way! Let me know ASAP!



Didn't appear to be a spam email. Image has "TheQuerent was here" at the bottom in small print.

Wiki'd Querent and it means "one who seeks".

I responded to the email with the following:
Quote:
Hmm. Interesting picture. I would definitely like to join them.

Any other details you can offer?


Wonder what this is about if it is indeed a trailhead of some sort.

/edit: merged to existing thread. -ndemeter

while a cute little site, has been around since 2002

So far I get the feeling of "Eyes Wide Shut" with Nicole Kidman and what's his face.

So i've gotten the same e-mail from TheQuerent as six got (the image of the girl with the question mark eyes)
I'm on a mac so my de-steggin abilities are somewhat limited.

Also,
I sent Joachim this link, saying he might like it.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/neko_no_kuni/2830356697/

Reply arrived last night (about 4 hours before TheQuerent's e-mails went out it seems)

Joachim:
I'm rather more fond of monarch butterflies.

What sort of answers do you need? I can tell just from the few emails that you sent that you are a wonderful human being, capable of great compassion.

*EDIT*
And my reply....

Smile You mentioned a butterfly in your blog I thought you might like another one. Though I've no idea if its anything like your pendant.

As to the answers I'm looking for... I guess I want to know who's in control. Fate? The government? Where do I fit in this world?
I feel like such a querent, looking for answers but finding none.
I think I'd like to join Merveilleux, they seem to have been so good to you.
But I know so little about them. who are they? Are they international? What do they do?
