 		Just letting you all know I fixed my conversation attachment. I don't know what went wrong the first time, but it's up there now.

 		So we have a little bit of new information - not much, but ninja's chat brought some other things up.

- The Noblesse are those who haven't left the Cyclical (whatever the cyclical is - it's a cycle of something)
- The Quobe are not like us; they help bring us together.

Here's what is kinda sticking out though - when asked if the Quobe and Noblesse are the same, Apate responds: "like the blue bins you put plastic into." Not sure if there's deeper meaning to it, or if they're just grouping us like recycled plastic which will get molded and re-used for something new, or if it's referring to something else.

 		Nope! We're not really that far into it, shoot the Noblesse an email from that poster and get started. We've only found a couple things, nothing too concrete as of yet.

 		OK. It is an auto-responded email. And I filled it out. Waiting for reply.

 		I ended up asking the Noblesse about Apate, but they pretty much ignored the question entirely.

Until the rain falls? I doubt we're looking for something weather related, unless we're supposed to watching for somewhere in particular, but I've seen no clues as to location.

Anyone have any clue as to what the "i i i i i i i ii" was? I am coming up short.

Finally got my reply. Still nothing on the first mail I sent, though. Oh well.
Hey, an eight's not that bad, at least. I was hoping for a nine, though.

Nice to have you - don't forget to register for the forums, makes life so much easier for you. I made that mistake when I first posted here, haha.

Yea, I felt that way, too. I'm still waiting on them to be "in touch soon".

Now would be the time to talk then. I just got an email stating:

Quote:
My name is Aisa. I'm working alone today so I get to be a bit more chatty than usual!

Sweet, new content. Aisa?

Change of pace, I just got an e-mail from her, too. So far, here's the conversation:

The Noblesse (From earlier) wrote:

My reply:

A small situation? What's going on?

And if you're waiting for the rain to fall, you missed it - it was pouring here yesterday. But, I'm sure you're not referring to the weather. What exactly do you mean? And are you implying that my life and my reality as I know it will be changing because of my involvement? What exactly is your purpose?


Just got an email back from Aisa, as it turns out:

Aisa wrote:
My three coworkers are out chatting with Apate and Dolos to achieve some form of calm. So it's just me today.

Yes, we fully intend to change many things in your life. You want to move up, don't you? Our purpose is to help you do that!

Thank you for your continued service.


So we know of one worker now - one of the four that are tending to us in this instance. She refers to Apate as two separate people though, as it seems.

My reply:

Me wrote:
Why are they trying to calm him/her? And are they two separate people, or is it the Doppelganger that Apate spoke of when I chatted with him yesterday?

Change is good. I could use change in my life. It's going in all the wrong places, so change is something I welcome. And move up how? In your business - speaking of which, what exactly is your business about? - or are you talking about my placement in your program?


Aisa is chatty, you were right, Hipster.

Aisa wrote:
Apate and Dolos is one physical person.

This isn't REALLY a business, though! I'm talking about the number you were born into!


Ok, just gonna.. yea.

The Rest wrote:


Me wrote:
If it isn't REALLY a business, then what is it? I haven't gotten a straight answer out of anyone yet, though I'm hoping you'll shine a light on some of these things. And you mean the number you guys gave me? 8, right? What exactly does it mean? Apate told me that 8s have it so much easier than 9s, but when I asked about it, he/she logged off. Also, is it a guy or a girl so I can stop being ambiguous about him/her?


Aisa wrote:
Well, maybe it's a business, kind of. But I know that our side of it is about... people slide forward, and people slide back. We just want to make more people slide forward. Very few people are a 5 or 6. The majority are 7s or 8s. Some are 9s. Only 1 or 2 in this world are 10s. Anything below a 5 is more for animals than humans. That's how it was explained to me when I first started. I still have that written in my notes!


Me wrote:
So you're really just aiming to help people take two steps forward, and one step back instead of the other way around? Do the numbers stand for being open-minded, or are you gauging some kind of mental ability we have?

Anyways, enough about that - how long have you worked for Quobe? Or the Noblesse, or whatever you guys call yourselves. How'd you get started with these people?


Aisa wrote:
I've always been with them. They raised me! But I first started doing work about a year ago, the same time as Apate and Dolos started.

The Nobility is a silly name they use for us 4 who read your applications. I guess it's easy to be confused about that.

The numbers have lots of meanings, but now's not the right time for me to tell you. You wouldn't be open to it at this point.


Me wrote:
So, did/do your parents work for them? Is that how you got involved?

Apate and Dolos still confounds me, but I don't know how much you can help with that. It talked about not always seeming like itself, like someone else took over, and it was even a bit apparent when I was talking to it, it just shifted speech patterns.

Out of curiosity, does i i i i i i i ii mean anything to you? Just something it said last night, confused me a bit.

What other work do you do for Quobe besides reading our applications?


And no other replies now for awhile. Anyone else get anything?
