 		Yeah... The only connection between "untouchable" "prime" and "sequence" that I can see is the #5. That was going to be damn near impossible without further assistance. #5 is the "fifth" in oh so many things. The (i) I took to be a Roman 1 to fill the sequence. (Should the "Order is important!" have lead us to the number 5 somehow??)
Order so far:
1. one-O-6-MNO 3-letters
2. Helios-H-4-GHI 6-letters
3. Fibonacci-F-3-DEF 9-letters

"The Guardian of the North 4th Planet" could be another John Carter.
Where's iandaking ?

Journal 1968 July

Met with Goreth today, the Minion family have been very helpful. He was covered from head to toe barely any skin showing, the face showed deep age and yet he looked quite young mid thirties I would had said if I didn't know what he was really. The evidence he presented regarding Mary's death was startling, although I find it hard to trust one of the Outcast. They stole our destiny from us, they should all die but maybe he will be of some use.

Journal 1968 August

Minion has supplied answers to several of my questions about Goreth, they are dying some human disease that entered the dreamlands. They have become interested in the humans. Goreth has a plan I know it.

My opposite is noble and true, order is important

Citing Leamus Inc.'s recent slogan change Foilhead wrote:
"Chaos is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence."

Hi! Foilhead's update is interesting not only for this quote which reads as a clue regarding our Noble Gases puzzle but also b/c of the 9 black cubes found on Mars.

 		F.P.Sun emailed advising that it's imperative to "persuade the Empire not bring back the cubes" found on Mars and "to quarantine the planet entirely".

In reply to my saying we would just leave the cubes for the Joined to collect b/c they seem to need them (sarcasm) F.P.Sun wrote:
Subject: Continuum Lock

The Empire can easily stop outgoing ships and search them without question they do it all the time, do you think you live in a free society? You are under the Empire's control. One cube is more than enough, nine is like adding a stick of dynamite to a fire. And there is reason why Tyrell is friends with Samael.

The answer is simple we release Spiral, Wallace and Louise from the Continuum Lock at these coordinates: 52.4675°N 3.7828°W

The coords are those for Plynlimon/ Pumlumon that has its own 729 Inc. page. Sorta harsh yet imo Wallace can stay locked for awhile as far as this scenario goes. Twisted Evil

 		Not sure what to make of this

Quote:

Spoon: What does 'noble and true' mean to you?

Tyrell: Depends are there more than one?




It is probably safer for Wallace and Louise to stay in the Lock for the short term and we don't need Spiral to add extra complications.

 		A small chat with D

Quote:

Spoon: Pop quiz hotshot, picture a giant many sided safe, now picture the phrase 'noble and true'.

D: Who are you ?

Spoon: Apologies, I need to work on my introductions. I am Spoonhead, an acquaintance of Tyrell and his pet scientist Behind You. We have been in discussion regarding the Empire's efforts at Duntrodden. They in the process of trying to crack a safe made from possibly martian metal. Would you have any experience in this area?

D: Don't touch it with your bare hands, quite lethal man. Many you know.

Spoon: So what brings you this neck of the woods? Holidays?

D: Sort of, always liked to mix, well know actually my business is pleasure you know man.

Do you know whats in the safe? The metal isn't martian, hell I don't think it is even metal the damn stuff dissolves when you hack pieces of it off the main body. Metal don't vanish into thin air, you know man! That island gave me the screaming willies and that was years after Du and his pirates went there, go and collect samples they say, the wildlife wouldn't harm fly, yeah right! That island was more like another planet, the wildlife didn't exist because flies as big as your fist have eaten them all. Okay maybe not, there were beasts there but you never saw them, heard them though very heavy breathers you know man, if I didn't know better I'd thought I was in some old people's bordello boudoir disgusting thought but funny you know man. I needed to a laugh in that place and then there were those bloody Gaunts one of the few times I've seen them without an Outcast close behind them, they eat only the young you know damn animals!

They say the Truth is out there that the pursuit of it is a noble cause, yeah right! Whoever said that wasn't stuck on an island that makes being hung, drawn and quartered an appealing alternative, okay maybe not the quartered part that's just plain messy you'd never get the blood out of yer shirt. The Truth is an Urban myth, just hot air you know man, don't trust anyone. Least of all an old hack like me who is half mad already, soldiers that come back from the front lines got that hundred yard stare well mine appears to be set on infinity looking behind not forward, eyes in the back of my head you know man.

 		Update: Transparent Safe was found with a fantograph (Barrels) in the evidence desk. You'll Laughing at my tunnel focus during an undergrad African history class eons ago.
Safe (Barrels) keyword solve
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
'amazon' works. The Mino were the female warriors of Dahomey, organized during king Aho Houegbadja's reign. 'Dakodonou' (written in the puzzle) was his father

fwiw: The Queen Alexandra Memorial is pictured in the puzzle. She's the mother of George V, also pictured. 'Mino' is the Fon language word meaning Our Mothers.

ETA: And **quelle surprise** there's a PW protected C-File with the prompt "Exham Monastery".PW solve of Sister Mary Memoirs
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
PW is: rats. From the Lovecraft story "The Rats in the Walls"

 		Hi! A Foilhead update (his "last article for some time") and a Message From Control indicate that this arg is now on hiatus ("on hold").

And F.P.Sun in an email wrote:
Looks like we are at War again!

The bloody Outcast have succeeded in their main mission, to create chaos and disrupt all our attempts at putting them down once and for all.

I can only hope that Empire is up to the task at hand, the Russians have been building up their navies up for sometime now. Let us also hope that the Russians are not stupid when it comes to the contents of Dun Troddan otherwise it will be a very short war with not even a single atom to show that the planet existed, there will just a empty space in its orbit.

They have the upper hand now, time we went to ground. Good luck with all your future endeavours, we will speak again once the dust has settled.

Despite a pervasive flaw of not providing useful player guidance there were many enjoyable elements. So thanks to the PM & the players for all their creative work.

 		First reality gets broken and now possibly the planet. Hurrah.

Still, gives me time to green light the noble and true.


And thanks Amandel for finding the one word relating to Exham Priory I didn't try.

The Guardian has a name that I cannot remember now. He appears in the Warlord of Mars so I'm going to look it up.
