Whoa, maybe I'm not losing my edge. I cleared the candle and I'm onto an extremely creepy little girl and a jumbled scrabble board.

See - different puzzles are easy for different people - cause I am staring at that candle and scratchin my head.

Do you want a hint?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The answer makes sense in the context of the text and think very simply

Edit : although you may not thank me when you get to the next level. Its easily the creepiest level so far.

Other than the hint I gave above, I'm not sure if I can say anything without pissing off grngecko. I can PM you a more in-depth clue if you want, but I wouldn't feel comfortable posting it.

For those who've now said your rosary, any ideas on the creepy little girl?

Edit : I had a thought, but its going to take a little brute force and a lot of paper ...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

what if the way the letters are presented are a literal clue as to the cipher used? What type of cipher would be represented by the picture on the page? Moreover, think of what was said in the previous clue. What cipher type goes along with the name of this page and what was said on the candle page.

I just thought I'd share where I'm going with it. If you think of something different or happen to crack it, please speak up.

Hint sent. Just speak up if you get stuck. At this point, I don't think any one person can take credit for solving Torment as everyone has helped everyone else. Lets just work to get everyone over the line.

Please can I take you up on the offer? Still can't see *any* way to start the rosary/candle one.
