I'm on the outskirts of North London, and have let Vlad know I can meet him one evening.

If I'm right, The Great North Wood covers an area of Southern London, including Crystal Palace. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_North_Wood

The area also has Sydenham, were there were rather worrying reports of an ABC ("Alien Big Cat") a while ago - In this case, a large black panther-like beast that attacked someone. A little worrying remembering some of the events in previous ARGs featuring Vlad!

Bit of a nightmare to get to for me, but doable if it's not too early.

Sorry for the double post:

I'm pretty sure Vlad is speaking of Crystal Palace when he mentions a meeting location in The Great North Wood. Firstly, Merlin took the treasures to a "glass tower" for safekeeping.
Secondly, crystal palace became famous for two transmitter towers for the bbc.
Thirdly, there are many "interesting" locations around Crystal Palace as it stands now, relating to broadcasting relays and defence, historic trees and the river Effra.

However - I'm not sure Crystal Palace as it stands now is the venue.

The palace was originally part of the Great Exhibition, until it burned down in a November fire. The original location was Hyde Park.

Hyde... A "hidden" place for the Shadow of the Palace. Note the link to split personalities - Jeckyl and Hyde.

Has anyone else noticed the change to "Albion Prevails" in the messages, plus a slight change in tone? What COULD be going on? We're also seeing references to Norse Gods with the mention of Odin's Day. Why not Woden? Are we seeing a change in Vlad, linking to the supposedly defeated Ministry Of Argon?

Yup, but why? I don't know if this is accidental, but I've had messages from Vlad arrive in two different email accounts. Some come to one or the other, some come to both.

Is this coincidence, or different sides of the personality setting tasks?

Edit - its just a coincidence. Smile

Anyone have a list of what treasures have guardians so far? I came in around test 6 so I missed which treasures on the list have been assigned.

In reference to the above image about whoxarexyou.

Well in case someones interested.

Theimage in the top left is the image the "The Knifetime Guarantee from Saturn Machine Knives". Here is a link to the image;

http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=knifetime+warranty&um=1&hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&sa=X&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&nfpr=1&biw=1920&bih=1036&tbm=isch&tbnid=9_-iLXeFXM5_mM:&imgrefurl=http://www.chipperblades.co.uk/&docid=qnkGOP7DS4AYAM&imgurl=http://www.chipperblades.co.uk/img/knife-time-guarantee-home.jpg&w=200&h=199&ei=VwW7TvCkEcaVswbnuogk&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=209&vpy=211&dur=370&hovh=159&hovw=160&tx=120&ty=83&sig=103307281113409006766&page=1&tbnh=120&tbnw=121&start=0&ndsp=68&ved=1t:429,r:0,s:0

The "who watches the watchmen?" is a quote from the graphic novel (& movie) watchmen.

The seven year itch is a play.

The 7 +3 = 10 and the following quote are from the play the twelve angry men.

Scripts for the plays are easy to find online.

Now the first image is for the knifetime guarantee I believe identifies the treasure as the knife. The rest seems to be talking about guilt and being judged. The seven year itch is a play about a man considering cheating, and the twelve angry men is a play about jurors judging the guilt of a man, and the who watches the watchmen is about judging well... the watchmen.

Well, I spoke with Sergei earlier and I guess he might be "recruiting" for his side. He gave me first crack at this document under the stipulation that I share it with everyone else. The email was titled "Half a Message?" and the body of the email said:
