Just had a chat with forest:

That... changes things.

From an e-mail exchange between Forest and I.

Me-I also had a question- What was your Father's name? Adam?

Forest's reply- We remember John, yet Adam rings true as well.
Why do people confuse our pasts, our thoughts with these questions. Please, focus on understanding the connections. Our mission is to get others...

For those who do not know, the name Adam is a reference to Frankenstein, and how Mary Shelley personally referred to the creation as Adam(in reference to Paradise Lost). Asked the question following the solving of the ?what and the image of Boris looking at his daughter. Of course, Boris Karloff played the monster in the movie.

Thoughts... I am currently thinking that Shelley is a resurrected body(through a combination of science and magic involving a galvanic battery, Mide rituals(?) and more?), possibly of the original F.F.E.Y.-T. though he could be anyone. If he knows God is not in flesh then has he met him? His Father, emphasis on the uppercase F, so not by birth but by creation? According to Shelley, the ?what holds hints about his future and past.

I cannot wait for the fooling to commence on the morrow.

Edit- Decided to see if I could get a chat with Shelley myself, and was able to uncover a few more pieces of information.

Wow. This story just gets more and more interesting!

Now btw there is a crossword puzzle on flickr which I know wasn't there yesterday since I was re-reading through the answers and don't remember seeing it. Under it is:

Solved all of them except number 3. And unfortunately, it is the last red box.

Edit- Anyways that was fun and all, but it looks like it's just a red herring/April Fools joke. =)

I am curious about the three symbols in black at the bottom of the puzzle -- again, may be a red herring, but curious as to how we can decode them.

Random research, playing on the concept of "manitou" and the connections with the Algonquin:

The Great Hare

So it seems to me that Shelley's "Father" is the Great Hare. That would make sense with everything he has said so far.

Anyways it looks like Forest is planning some more crossover with Saranna, but I wonder what. I don't expect him to be sending another tarot card in.
