 		[trailhead?] Mysterious Priest
So this email came to an old Gmail account that I used as a character for ARGTalk. Shocked

Hey Kat,

Sorry if you get this email twice or anything like that. This email's been really funky so far. Anyway, the website's done! (as you can probably tell from my new email address) Can you believe it? Woohoo! I'm not sure why Xelloss wanted it up so badly, but well, I guess he'll be pleased when he gets back. Whatever his plan is, and whenever he does manage to get his demonic butt back here.. It's been months since he left for his world. I'm starting to think that he won't be back for a while. At the very least I hope he's kicking dragon ass.

<3

Sae


Could Sae = Saevitia?

 		So the website www.mysteriouspriest.com has some weird stuff on it. The reason it's up:
Quote:
Of course there's another reason for the site, a reason that he gave me, and in fact, another reason beyond that. But you'll just have to find those reasons for yourself. Or not.


But there's some other stuff on there that seems it could be OOG as well. I'll have to keep looking.

[EDIT] So the name (Xelloss) from the e-mail is all over the website. I still have no idea what is going on. The links for the LJ's don't work but one for an anime fansite does. There is also a form to fill out to potentially win a postcard from mysterious priest. They want your name, addy, phone number, and reason for wanting the postcard. Weirdness.

Posted this as a response to Illy's in the Spam thread:

Whois information lists a named contact and a gmail address:
http://whois.domaintools.com/mysteriouspriest.com

One other link to someone getting this:
http://thegonzogrift.livejournal.com/61412.html

Saevitia is the gmail address in the whois.

 		I'm the one who owns thegonzogrift blog. I received the e-mail earlier today and immediately posted in ont he blog out of curiosity. I'm played ARGs before, and I used to lurk around unfiction as Kareiyasha a couple years back.

I'm on AIM as thegonzogrift if any of you want to add.

 		Ah, well if Saevitia's behind it and it looks ARG-like, then it's probably ARG-like. She ran the very well-received game Rookery Tower a couple of years ago, so for those of you looking for something to jump right into, this might be it.

 		So I'm sure someday easily sharing my personal info is going to come back to bite me in the butt, but for now, I did. Here's what I got back:
Quote:
Miss XXXXX,

May I call you Ariana? Thank you so much for trusting me with such sensitive information, mmmm? Wink I'll do my best to repay you with the same.

In the Name of X


Even he thinks it was weird of me to do...

I tried sending my information as well, but I got an error page for some reason. Did this happen to you as well?

 		Well in searching around the site I found a link to the webmaster's (or what I believe my be a Webmistress) Live Journal.


http://overlord-mordax.livejournal.com/

One of the entrys includes:

Quote:
Well, it looks like I'm an idiot. According to an email I just got, I may have accidentally sent an email meant for one person to my entire contact list. Hell.

*slams head against desk*

If you got that email, I'm really sorry. You can ignore it.


But also more interestingly this:

Quote:

And a comment in response to it:

 		Vigenere ciphere
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Xelloss is key

"So it looks like someone's trolling my LJ yet again. I deleted all the comments.

Mostly they amounted to 'you're fat and ugly, and if you weren't so fat and ugly you wouldn't have to be a stupid otakukin.'

I guess that they don't get that being who I am, someone who has lived other lives than this, and is still in communication with at least one otherworldly entity, is what makes me a social outcast. Not the other way around.

I'm posting this unlocked in defiance of the THEM. I refuse to lock my posts for the stupid, unwashed masses who'll be the first to go if I ever happen to return to my former self without immediately leaving this world.

And if Xelloss ever gets back, something tells me that that day is closer than it ever was.

Now… encrypt them so that only people I want to"

I tried the cipher on the key word "Master" but nothing. Also, if you follow her links in the LiveJournal page you find a website called truthofthespoon

www.truthofthespoon.net

Any of this seem relevant?

 		I've tried everything I could find as a key for the comment with no luck. I even tried rotting it to no avail.

Yeah, I got a blank page that never loaded. I figured it didn't go through until I got the e-mail. So, I guess that's ok.
