well actually, the pages shown are the front page, and page 20. But it tells us about other articles on pages 11, 27, and 76.

not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet, but on /aftermath there are a few places within the paragraph that has extra spacing between certain words.

And yes I'm aware, newspapers do that all the time in articles. but it still could have some meaning.

I noticed on conduit the page is taped together in the middle. Has anyone split the image and overlaid it over itself?

Haven't found anything playing with it as you say so far (thanks for suggesting, tho) but it does in fact seem to resemble a picture of trees and a lake when split in two like thhttp://i53.tinypic.com/21tret.jpgat as opposed to an icefly



just a down and dirty capture of what happened when I floated the selection and played with the transparency. As you can see it looks more like trees and a lake or something... However you don't need to overlay them to see this. just split up the picture.

My speculative guess:

The conduit picture is "before".

The picture in aftermath is "after".

In other words, an ice fly showed up in Taymyr. That's the conduit picture (stylized, for sure).

The aftermath picture is what occurred AFTER the icefly had arrived.

well after the movie of the icefly container floating, maybe the iceflys power source is strong? or different, and is similar to what happens when a nuke overloads?

also could be that it weakened the "link" between people and it was unstable and exploded

Oddly enough,I was going to assume that the Blameless and Aftermath newspaper clips were linked,perhaps something to do with an antagonist,as both places had burnt remains.

I think they are related.

I think that, in both cases, an icefly manifested (or was found).

I think the first fire was related to someone enrolled in that academy...I think the second fire was likely related to someone or something else. Maybe THAT'S where the "extraction" we've seen in the video occurred.

And the "removal" of the icefly caused the blast?

Kinda wondering if there is perhaps a firefly coming up... given the burny theme of these...

Could be related to our Sight tests

(doubt it though, it would be on SC)

If you read the first clipping, its from 1996, which is the same year Bobbi was accepted to the academy. So it could be something to do with her. But at the same time it refers to their "kid" as a "he" so maybe not. As for the second one, we have no date whatsoever. This could have something to do with the icefly, being a crater and such. But I think the first one was an actual fire, not an explosion.

maybe it was her brother, and he died in the fire? and maybe she wasnt always deph untill then (icefly explosion reaction?)

also maybe when the icefly thaws(turns red from blue (if mechanicle)) it explodes? destroying any trace of itself and those it effected

bobbi signed the letter to maxine with her last name being gnarsea and the way the letter is writen seems like a letter to a sister so yeah...and one other thing she says that she isn't a mind reader but how could she draw those pictures unless she had already been there...seen the icefly and the doors ect.
