I sent this to Iris and a similar one to Dale. I haven't had a reply yet, but I will post it if I do.

Hello Iris,

We haven't yet had the pleasure of corresponding, but I am a part of the group helping Dale.

Do you think it possible, that Don Marzano could be the Nautonier/Grand Master Priory of Sion/Knights Templar or some other such group?

The reason I ask is that with all the information we are getting from various sources, I keep coming around to the same line of thinking.

We have been told by Dale that he believes these vying groups (DEGs/Guides) to have existed in one form or another for a very long time. The references we've had from Dale to AVALON ties in quite readily.(Whether correct or not remains to be seen).

The Templars were the keepers of the Holy Grail who were searching for Avalon, a paradise free from religious persecution.

Some believe The Holy Grail to be the actual bloodline/descendents of Christ.

Joseph of Arimathea was said to be bound for Avalon after asking for the body of Christ.

The shield of the Templars was exactly that of Sir Galahad, the Christianized Grail Hero - a pure white background emblazoned with a large red cross.

The guides have names us "initiates". This is used with other secret societies as well. So two of many vying factions? After something.....the Grail? The bloodline? Does the blood of Christ run through Sarah? Dale?

And what about the variation on the Maltese Cross used at the SOD website? This cross is also found on the seal of the Order of Knight Templars.

Avalon/Arthur/Galahad/Joseph of Arimathea/Knights Templar/Priory of Sion/Freemasonry/Golden Dawn/Holy Grail/Enochian Magic/Sacred Geometry/Alchemy/Astrology............and on and on.

I'd be very interested in hearing your thoughts.

If the PoS and Knights Templar are involved, then I'm going to scream.. They're giving us enough problems over at S4E.

According to Laurence Gardner (author of Bloodline of the Holy Grail), the Merovingian dynasty derives its name from the 5th century King Merovee of France, a descendant of the mystical Fisher-Kings. This ties into both Avalon and the Shadowtalk information. When asked about the identity of the Guides he replied with "fishermen of legend".

Fishermen of legend....

Fisher King

Quote:

aka 'The Grail King'.
According to developments of the Arthurian Christian legends The Grail King was the name given to the established Fisher King so named after feeding many people from just one fish from the river by his castle. The development of this name has also been seen as a play on words by the French writers of Arthurian romance, as the word for fisherman and for sinner are the same, 'pecheur'. As the King is not without fault the play on words seems to be a likely development of Norman Grail romance writers

Quote:

The Fisher King, despite not being a king fit to govern a people, was viewed as the 'Grand Black Magician of the Underworld'. The writer 'Robert de Borron' in the twelfth-thirteenth-century described him thus -

Quote:

'much knew he of black art,
more than a hundred times changed in his semblance.'
The Fisher King is also the uncle of 'Peredur' in some of the Arthurian romances. The Fisher King has also been thought to be the equivalent character in Arthurian legend to 'Alain le Gros' who was the reputed father of 'Perceval'.

Ey Valas, maybe we should post a link to the S4E forum... there is plenty of info about Pos, Templar Knights, Merovingians and all subjects you can imagine relating the Holy Grial Laughing

Sorry, I just think it's very funny how these two games seems to become more and more similar... inlcuding the death of one of the characters!! Smile

Would have to be the dotconnectors forum then. All the major info is there. Well barring what's scattered over 4 different forums as well.. *sigh*

Another thing they have in common is the ineptitude of the medical examiner and the lack of a thorough tox screen. Plus the supposed heart attacks.. Rolling Eyes

I'm serious though.. If the PoS or Knights Templar are intimately involved in CTW as well, then I am going to scream.. If folks think CTW is complex, then wait till they get the added layers from those two organizations. Shocked

INFO: EOS Updated-The Wand was found

Quote:

I have done it! I have contacted a being that exists upon a plane different from our own. Readers, friends and whoever else reads this, cheer and clap and know that a new day has dawned for all of us who are interested in psychic phenomena and metaphysical mysteries.

I know, you would all love to hear the exact details and I think the best way to do it is to share with you an email that Phyllis sent out the day after the event to investigators who are helping her over the Internet. These are the very same folks who belong to those groups that so many of you have said you managed to find. I apologize to those of you who have already read this and so feel free to skip to the bottom where I will expand upon my thoughts and feelings so far.

"We prepared ourselves for last night's s�ance just as we did the night
before. [Note: I made all of us go though a very complex series of
purification rituals, including a bath in sea salt to cleanse our bodies of any lingering energies that would taint the energy in the room and then sage smoke to cleanse everyone from head to toe before calling on my goddess and all of our guardian angels, helper spirits, spirit guides and guide animals to stand guard and protect us. I then went through a ritual cleansing of the room whereby a circle of protection is drawn to keep out anyone or anything that would harm us while we ventured forth into the unknown ethers. � Iris] We did take the extra precaution of leaving the floodlights on outside, which meant tacking up thick blankets in the studio to keep that light out. I also instructed the security team to not go banging on the door unless they heard screams or some kind of disruption within the house. The other difference was that instead of candles all around the room, we only had one in the center of our circle to help us focus.

The same kind of phenomena occurred, the tingling, the chill, the art emerging from the walls, then the horrific sound but it seemed to happen at a slower more digestible pace. As a figure began to form over the center of our circle, Iris called out in a loud summoning voice, "Sarah, Sarah." And she came! What was a blurry, indistinct shape focused into a gossamer shimmering image of Sarah in a plain dark dress. She looked pale and withdrawn into a kind of slumber but she opened her eyes and looked at each of us around the circle. [Note: Sarah appeared much as she did in the photo that is posted on the Aglaura town website - http://www.aglauranj.org/library/sarahspicture.html - Iris] When her eyes looked into mine, I blushed with shame and she spoke of my
crime, "Phyllis, you have much to answer for; you have all but erased me from this world." Tears sprang to my eyes unbidden and she continued, "But I sense a change in your heart, an awakening, a transformation." She looked around at all of us and said, "And that is what your stay in this world is all about." A moment passed before Iris found her voice and started to say, "Sarah, we have much to ask you and--" But, Sarah cut her off, saying, "There isn't time, listen. The self-appointed guardians of knowledge on either side are blind to the true danger. They have become obsessed with secrecy and deception. They have forgotten the evil things that grow under cover of a darkness such as that."

She looked downcast and spoke again with sadness, "I never anticipated the stones I made to awaken being drawn to and found by an evil man." She looked up again and spoke more forcefully, "He has become the embodiment of the ancient force he represents and the day of his greatest strength likes just before us." She looked out towards the walls of the room and said, "They are coming and the barriers you have placed will not deter them. They are drawn to anyone who holds a means of knowledge and understanding � like the stones or the manuscript pages." She looked back at us, her tone taking on urgency, "Quickly. The relics I have made and left behind will show the way to what you must do. They must be found by either you or your recently made friends and helpers. The three totems of power will open the way and then, with the stones --" She never finished because at that moment there was a loud explosion of sound and a flash of light from outside the house, flashing even through the heavy blankets we had hung, and the power failed. Only the light from the single candle illuminated the desperate expression on Sarah's face. "Those outsiders, the young people, have taken the wand from where I had hidden it. They think they are playing a game but they know not what they have found. You must find them. They have left their mark behind. There is a note with the wand that will help guide you."
Then, a tremendous crashing noise occurred within the house! I couldn't help screaming with alarm and Iris jerked to attention. The image of Sarah vanished and James and Chris jumped to their feet and ran toward the door. More smashing, crashing noises careened through the house. James and Chris couldn't get the door open. I grabbed the phone on a side table and discovered it was dead. I looked up to see James and Chris pounding on the door, trying to force it open, and then I cried out again as they jumped back. The door was bulging inward! Some monstrous force was trying to push through the wood!

On pure reflex, I went for the manuscript page. Iris and I bumped heads reaching for it at the same time. In the instant that we both held it, everything stopped! The door, the noises, everything zoomed back to normal and we stood there gasping for breath. My heart was nearly palpitating out of my rib cage. Then we could hear the security team yelling to each other outside and the lights came back on. My knees gave out and I collapsed on the nearest sofa to concentrate on breathing deeply and slowly until I could think rationally again."

As you can see, it was a very dramatic and impossibly exciting event. I am sorry that Phyllis and the boys were so distraught, but then again they did not feel what I felt and until now I was not certain whether I should share this information with them. I have, of course, decided to sit them down and show them this article as way of explanation as I find that words desert me right now.

That night, something amazing occurred that no one has really conceptualized until this moment. I tell you right now, dear readers and friends, I am not just guessing when I say that we made contact with a being that exists on another plane. Sarah Wyatt, for all that she was formerly of this plane and this planet now exists in another dimension. She is as alive as she ever was here and, perhaps, even more so. I daresay that I would not be stretching the truth to say that she has transcended us all. Perhaps this is the way our species will go, or maybe she is just one of the lucky few who gets to touch immortality by crossing that barrier that has been erected by those who are smarter or perhaps wiser than we.

Lastly I will tell you my friends, I think something is about to happen. Call
it a psychic's intuition or perhaps just a gut feeling, but we are at the cusp of something monumental. I must ask that you search through your memories and see if you can find me any information on how I can reach the teenagers that Sarah mentioned. I believe that the fate of the town, of not all of us, is dependant upon us finding them and that which they have taken from the woods.
Iris
