Sorry if this is a trout, but I did my best searching through the thread. I believe the prophecyofstars has had that last sentence changed on the main page again..

Quote:
transdimensional relocation complete. seek out the contact.


And with that, I'm jumping in on this. My interest has been captured. Very Happy


You're right, that is new. Looks like he accidentally made that page visible in the navigation because it is gone now. The phrase leads us there "the-contact.html."

Another thing, I've been getting the strange feeling that we're being duped. We have been taking the Wind Walkers word for what's going on without hearing from the Firebringers. I mean, what if there isn't two sides? What if this is an elaborate Alien plot?

Why is Bob avoiding Colby's questions about Gabriel? Why the pained look?

Was Gabriel possessed before the WWs "transported" the people of Unton to the alternate dimension? Is he being held as their enemy? Is he even there? Could the Firebringers have him? Is he dead?

Or is he fine but either unconvinced that they're the "good guys" or does he know that they're not?

Using "Red Sectors in Tea" as an anagram with the assumption that the word "Secret" is involved...

Find the-

Secret Radon Site- Flood Unton with Radon and kill ALL the "Bad Guys"?
Secret Ordinates
Secret Raid Onset- Makes sense but isn't grammatically correct.
Secret Raid Steno
Secret Raid Notes
Secret Raid Tones
Secret Raids Note
Secret Raids Tone
Secret Inset Road
Secret Road Tines
Secret Roads Tine- One of the branches of the fork in a secret road?
Torn Aside Secret
Secret Rated Ions
Radio Sent Secret
Secret Radio Nest
Secret Triad Ones
Secret Triad Eons
Secret Adorn Site
Secret Stair Node

We might be duped... that'd be funny if it's a whole alien puppet show, then Bob turns around and zaps Colby dead... but I doubt that's going to happen Very Happy

Agent's email is the.agent.of.darknessSPLATgmail.com

I thought it was just a dream after all

Looks to me like this was all made just today. Anyway so we're getting a new AIM sn soon so lookout for that, though it should be made apparent. Maybe contact from "Bob" soon.

Darkness noticed the orb picking up Christine and Colby. Maybe he was taken too like a stowaway? He said it was shaking.


My understanding of Colby's post was that his encounter with Bob was all just a dream. He started the post saying it was a dream but then never mentioned waking up at the end. This is my first ARG, I have spent the last 12 hours trying to read all the posts and forum posts and trying to get a grip of the situation so if im a trout here sorry.

Well, I know some people might say it's not going to end up that complex, but if these people are fans of anything like X-Files, this could involve a lot more then we expect. I think it's good to be paranoid.

We haven't seen or heard anything from the Firebringers themselves. I think we've only heard of them through the people. Not that that means anything.. why would they contact us? But I definitely get what you're saying and agree. Personally, I think it would be awesome if things ended up that complicated. ^_^

True, and I don't believe anyone mentioned it yet.

Colby wrote:
Well, no sooner had we started talking about everything than we both fell fast asleep. I had the weirdest dreams.


However, my own view on it is that it just seemed like a dream to him. Crazy alien powers and all, right? Really, it simply didn't occur to me why aliens wouldn't travel in dreams, and it still makes sense to me, IMHO.

The Wind Walkers don't seem entirely trustable to me, either.

It says on the prophecy of stars site:

Quote:
Do not question. Just follow...


That seems like a red flag to me, even if it's part of the larger instruction/clue.

(Firebringers also make me think of Prometheus, and he wasn't so bad, right?)

Also: Hello! I'm another newcomer! (Yay! Wink )

Additionally, my sleep deprived mind has noticed that Unton backwards is like, "not new"! Rolling Eyes

wow i get offline at 10pm last night and i feel like i missed a decade. Maybe IM the one caught in the temporal distortion lol...

---

ok first things first, when it comes to the WW...

as i said when they first revealed themselves, seeing as though this is a story of "who do we trust?", its hard for us to take anyones word for anything, unless there is proof. I believe once we contact the FB, things will be even more complicated if they tell us that the WW are the ones who want to enslave us.

The only clue as to who is good and who is bad is the names. Wind and Fire. I know that isnt proof, but it does perhaps give us a sign as to their intentions.

When it comes to the "pained" look on the aliens face, could the groans coming from the back of the ship be Gabriel? just a thought.. only time will tell. (it is weird though that that was mentioned)

---

as for the Agents recent postings..

i agree with Angri, we absolutely need to get into a lasting contact with Agent: Darkness. He obviously is going against his (female) Superiors orders by even telling us the things he has told us. (Document 5224, Extermination. etc.).

The Agent will soon be in danger if his Superior discovers his insubordination. We, as well as Colby and Christine, may be her/his only source of protection.

As for the room shaking, I agree with whoever said the Agent may have been transported along with Colby and Christine. It is way too coincidental that the room shakes right after he/she sees the orb (ship).

uuunless.. Agent: Darkness' Superior discovered his plan to aid the Aliens, and they came to get him/her. That could be an option as well.

---

When it comes to the Aliens encounter with Colby..

I believe the aliens possess a power to control someones dreamstate. This would explain the images Colby saw in his dreams, that had a hand in starting this whole fiasco. This would also explain why they came for Colby in his sleep to take him to the other Dimension. Perhaps by taking him in his dream, it could be less painful? (remember, Gabriel said he was having headaches, etc.)

Bob. what a name.. lol I tried adding "bob" to the URL everywhere, no luck. I think we should let the Agent in on this "Bob" character. I wont say anything unless everyone agrees though.

----

one more thought about sectors in tea...

could it be an AIM screen name? I added it to my list, no luck yet though.. just another crazy thought.

This is all getting pretty complicated so good job Redct with the wiki... itll help alot. If anyone has any spare time and would want to add anything else to it, im sure we would all appreciate it.

---

ok i think thats it for now... ill prolly be editing soon with more ideas..

that goes with "Just follow.... the path to the stars"

which lead us to the next page. I agree though, the "do not question" is basically telling us to be ignorant and naive..

I emailed the agent and told him about BOB, and that he might have been taken himself. I also warned him to be careful if it turns out he was not taken, as his superior almost certainly knows something is amiss with him.

Could "Darkness is not always evil" refer to the Firebringers? It doesn't make since that it'd be put on a windwalker made page... but... Razz

well oook then.. so much for discussion lol.. anyways..


something was bothering me about Colbys description of Bob..


Quote:
However, they're tall and gangly... they remind me of spiders, almost.



Spider.. i dont think its a coincidence he used that word. Its way too odd of a desciption anyways, who uses spiders as a way to describe a face??

If thats the case, in Christines dream, she dreamt of a giant web being held by two needles. In the center of the web, was Gabriel and Chet.

Later on, she dreamt of the web burning.


Spiders are predators, and Gabriel was in the center of this "web". Which means he would be the prey.

The "pained" look with the mentioning of Gabriel, definitely shows the WW are familiar with him. Whether its good or bad, we can only speculate.


Spiders.. Predators... Gabriel...prey... Webs.. burning...

the only thing that hasnt yet related would be the needles holding up the web... could this be telling us that either the WW or FB are doing experiments on humans? (Hence the groans from the back of the ship).


IF the WW were to be evil, this would explain Christines dream, and Colbys description of Bob being "spider" like. ...

1.) Why was Bob going to the Firebringer in the first place?
Bob- "Look. I've got the people who will lead us to the person who will help us defeat you. I thought you should know."

2.) Bob must have thought that he was safe somehow
By going there he endangered himself and Colby/Christine.

3.) Why are the WW and Firebringers in the same place?

Aww... I was hoping we'd see Bob more. Oh well.

I think the baby is the chosen one. It's always the baby, and Christine probably got pregnant at the right time and is already a bit along.

...Either that, or the baby will pop out an alien. One or the other.

Does anyone else find it odd that their HQ were specifically shaped like a giant needle? Reminds me of Christine's dream, of course.

I think some of the things are being over analyzed a bit though. The groans and whatnot were likely the Windwalkers, even if he couldn't see them. They do speak in a language of clicks and groans. And why can't an alien be spidery?

I really don't understand why they had the meeting though. Either the WW are stupid.. Bob's stupid (which is classic of all Bob's I've meant, no offense to any I haven't yet met).. or there was a whole other reason behind the meeting. I'm betting on the last. Colby and Christine need to get universal translators. Where's a babel fish when you need one?

The Wind Walkers could very easily have them in a 'false' dimension - which could explain the people not actually staying inside their houses, and the villain-izing of the Firebringers.

Quote:
The WindWalkers are very soothing beings; I don't know why the Agent: Darkness wants to kill them all. That seems so wrong to me.


However, Agent: Darkness stated that it seemed unnecessary to kill them, didn't they?

Also, regarding "SECTORS IN TEA" - could it involve math? Considering the 'sec' and 'sin'... (Or something involving Socrates =P)
