 		[TRAILHEAD] Cardkeepers
There are 22 of us...
I got an email about an hour ago. It reads:

Quote:
Winter Sylvana <cardkeepers>
5:09 PM (1 hour ago)

Subject: It's Time

To the Keepers:

As you know, there are twenty-two of you. Each of you were chosen at birth to live for one, and only one task. 2013 is when we come together.

Each of you is powerful in your own right, but make no mistake, with power comes responsibility, and you will be held responsible. Remember, as a team we are strong enough to do what we came to do. Only as a team.

The first step in your journey is understanding the goals as they have been laid out for you:

1. Seek
2. Gather
3. Puzzle
4. Solve
5. Create
6. Understand
7. Teach

Love Always,
Sivvy, Ginny, Annes, Melia, & Norma

I don't have a clue what it is about. I just woke up from a nap and haven't figured out the bottom yet.

/edit: fixed subject line -ndemeter

 		Interesting. I definitely want to keep an eye on this. I wonder what the criteria is to be designated as one of the 22 cardkeepers? Maybe they are sending the email to 22 people? Maybe there will be a test? It could just be the first 22 who message them back? I know it is still too early for an answer to this question, but I ask it all the same.

 		Hey Amandel!

Thanks! I actually had just gotten there myself. There has to be a better way than I do it, though. Is there a site where you can put in your cipher and it will run through all sorts of things? I go through the list of types of ciphers in my head and then try to sort it out in order. It takes forever.

Also, I sent a reply saying I was ready to move forward.

 		Hi back y'all...and a sentient-cipher-site would be a sweet dream. Mostly, I use http://rumkin.com/tools/cipher/ with its many choices.

 		netsua98, I may not have the free time to play this. Yet imo games are for all so if you're serious about doing the "Puzzle & Solve" bits from the trailhead I'll reply back asking for you if all may "get on board" right now. It's your call. Plse reply on the thread.

I'm sure it does, seeing how the major arcana of the tarot deck has 22 cards: The Fool, The Magician, The High Priestess, The Empress, The Emperor, The Hierophant, The Lovers, The Chariot, Strenght, The Hermit, Wheel of Fortune, Justice, The Hanged Man, Death, Temperance, The Devil, The Tower, The Star, The Moon, The Sun, Judgement, and the World. I'm quite looking forwards to seeing which one I am keeping Smile

How about them names? Could be random, could also be in reference to something. Any group of five women in history or mythology that could be refered to as Sivvy, Ginny, Annes, Melia & Norma? Sivvy is prolly short for Winter Sylvana, who sent us the email.

I'm in. Only ARG I intend to play this spring, so lets make it good!


Edit: The image is from Will Bullas tarot-series: http://will-bullas.artistwebsites.com/art/all/tarot-according+to+will/all

Edit 2: Also, made us a chat! http://tinychat.com/TheCardKeepers. Dunno what do use it for, but I like Smile

 		Coffee Awaiting a reply from Winter Sylvana re posting their email for everyone *crosses fingers*. Their November 2012 entry can only be found in the "feed" now:

In November someone at The Card Keepers WP wrote:
We received our cards in the mail telling us place and time. Some of us showed up, curiosity burning in our veins, others did not. What kept them away? Fear, obligation, or apathy? Perhaps we will never know.

When we arrived what we had was taken away. We were given everything new: a new identity, a new past, a new future, and new belongings.

We were each given a story and journey. This is my story and my journey.
