So the first clue seems to be some sort of song? I'm not really sure how that will get us the information we need, but OK. The notes are: GCDCGFDC


And we have a playable Harp.

I've tried a few riffs but no luck yet.

Ok finally got it. I've been messing with this for a while...spoonhead was on the right track with the playable harp. I will spoiler what I did in case anybody wants to keep trying it.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The lowest note is on the right and is C. Some notes in the tune need to be played on the higher octave and some on the lower. Here's what I did:

G C(high) D(high) C(high) G F D(low) C(low)


I have attached a screenshot of the final puzzle piece that was revealed. The Houx text was cut off on my screen but I believe it says the same as the others.

So I plugged in some of the numbers into Google maps and longitude and latitude and I got the following:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
They appear to be pointing to a number of locations in the forest around Worcester Polytechnic Institute, John Wing Rd, Worcester, MA 01609

the code on all the pictures says "the location of power is at center" so possibly at the center of all the coordinates maybe?

Well Marcus's blog has apparently been taken down...I'm beginning to think there wasn't a holy grail to find at all. Crying or Very sad

Hey, I was some what involved in this ARG and now that it's over I can tell you it was just a quick one for a school assignment.

Somebody outside unFiction found the grail so it's over.
